Oxford CBT Child Psychologist Birmingham

About Oxford CBT

Oxford CBT provides expert psychological services for children and young people in Birmingham. Our team is committed to supporting mental health through evidence-based therapies tailored to individual needs. We work with children facing anxiety, depression, and behavioural issues. By combining therapies like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), we address a variety of concerns, such as trauma and eating disorders.

We take a holistic approach to therapy. We believe in involving both the child and their family in the treatment process, which promotes long-term mental health and well-being.

Services

Oxford CBT offers several therapy options, each designed to meet the unique needs of children and young people:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
  CBT helps children recognise and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. This therapy is effective for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. By learning to challenge negative thoughts, children can improve their emotional well-being.

• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
  DBT blends acceptance and change strategies. It teaches children how to regulate emotions and develop coping skills. It is especially useful for those with intense emotional reactions or difficulties in relationships.

• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
  EMDR is effective for children suffering from trauma. It helps them process and heal from distressing memories, often caused by Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). EMDR reduces emotional pain and helps children move forward.

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Eating Disorders (CBT-E)
  CBT-E is tailored for treating eating disorders. This therapy helps children address the negative thoughts and behaviours that contribute to unhealthy eating habits. It promotes a healthier relationship with food and improved body image.

• Coaching & Wellness
  Coaching sessions support mental well-being. These sessions are ideal for children who are not facing severe mental health issues but want to improve their emotional resilience and self-esteem. Coaching offers practical tools to manage stress and build confidence.

Additional Information

We aim to make therapy accessible and comfortable. Appointments are flexible, with options for after-school and weekend sessions. Our therapy environment is welcoming, ensuring children feel safe and supported.

The process starts with a thorough assessment to understand your child’s needs. From there, we create a personalised treatment plan, which is reviewed regularly to ensure the best results.
