Freedom to be — Therapy with Joel Bild
BACP Registered Therapist & Certified Professional Coach (CPC)

I offer in-person therapy in Clapham and Tonbridge, as well as online and outdoor therapy. I support adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, relationship and men’s issues, and codependency.

*Codependency means being overly focused on others’ needs at the expense of your own wellbeing, often tying your self-worth to others’ approval.

Meet Joel

I’ve spent almost 25 years in education and training, helping people grow, learn and thrive. That same passion runs through my therapy work — supporting you to feel more fulfilled, self-aware and connected in your life. My style is relaxed, friendly and creative. I often use tools and techniques such as mindfulness, visualisation or drawing to help spark insight and understanding.

For therapists

You hold space for everyone else — but who holds space for you?

I created the Confident Therapist Hub™, a reflective CPD space designed to build confidence from the inside out. Explore interactive courses like Overcome Imposter Syndrome and Manage Emotional Load & Avoid Burnout.

How I Work

I believe empathy, honesty and respect are the foundation of effective therapy. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach — together, we’ll explore what works best for you.

As an integrative therapist, I draw from several approaches:

Psychodynamic (exploring childhood patterns)
Cognitive-behavioural (understanding thoughts and actions)
Humanistic and creative methods (like visualisation or art)

In our first session, we’ll talk through your story, your goals, and what you hope to change. Therapy can help you break old patterns, build resilience, and feel more at ease in yourself and your relationships.
