Mr John Taggart

Registered Psychotherapist

“Clients feel listened to with compassion, understanding and intelligence.”

About Me

I offer a therapeutic space where you will feel truly heard. Clients consistently experience compassion, understanding, and intelligent insights, allowing a deep exploration of concerns. We can work together to make sense of complex feelings, finding a thoughtful way forward. This environment suits those seeking a therapist who genuinely listens and helps them find clarity.

Approach

You’ll be met with attentive curiosity that lets your concerns set the pace and focus of our work. Sessions in London or online, in English, are steady and collaborative: I listen closely, reflect patterns back, and help you test small changes between meetings so difficult feelings and behaviours become more manageable. We move at a practical, thoughtful rhythm — sometimes exploratory, sometimes skill-based — tuned to what feels safest and most useful for you. This way of working often suits people seeking clear insight and steady support.
