Chris Cleave Therapy
July 2025 – Please note that my schedule is currently full and I cannot begin work with new clients at the moment.

Dr Chris Cleave
DCPsych, MA (Oxon), CPsychol
Chartered Psychologist, Psychotherapist





Based in London and online, I'm an existential psychotherapist and chartered psychologist offering a warm, straightforward and inclusive therapy. I work with adults experiencing difficulties in their life, or looking for meaning.
My clients come with specific mental health concerns like anxiety, dissociation, trauma, depression, or panic, for example. And/or they come with life difficulties like anger, stuckness, isolation, and fears of all kinds.
I particularly welcome neurodivergent clients and LGBTQI+ clients.​​​
​
In addition to working as a therapist, I teach existential therapy and I write about trauma and recovery, in fiction and non-fiction.
​​
I have a newsletter about recovery that you can take a look at here:
