Therapy Services

Forward Move Psychology understand the decision to access psychological support can often be a difficult decision and it can feel overwhelming trying to find a therapist that feels the right fit for you! When starting your search for a therapist, it is important to consider that the first step to effective psychological work is developing a good working relationship with your therapist. Ideally, this relationship should be one which fosters care, warmth and ultimately supports you with the challenges you are facing.
