Private Therapy Clinics is an independent online magazine covering therapy, mental health, and wellbeing across the United Kingdom. We are not a clinic, and we do not provide medical or therapeutic services. What we do instead is tell the stories of an industry that rarely tells its own.
The world of private healthcare in Britain is famously discreet. NHS waiting lists have grown, conversations about mental health have moved into the open, and more people than ever are weighing up private care for the first time — often with very little independent information to guide them.
That gap is where we work. Our writers research and profile the clinics, therapists, and treatment approaches shaping private healthcare in the UK, from psychotherapy and psychiatry to physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and specialist care. We look at what these places actually feel like to walk into, what they specialise in, what they cost, and how the wider industry around them is changing.
Beyond clinic coverage, we report on the broader landscape of health and wellbeing: developments in therapies such as CBT and EMDR, research into conditions like anxiety, chronic fatigue, and ADHD, weight loss and lifestyle topics, and the health stories of public figures that so often start national conversations about illness, recovery, and body image.
We approach every piece as journalists, not marketers. We are not affiliated with any clinic, hospital group, or healthcare provider featured on this site, and inclusion in our coverage is never paid for. Our aim is simply to observe, report honestly, and give readers a clearer picture of a sector that affects millions of lives but is seldom examined closely.
A note on what we are: nothing published on Private Therapy Clinics constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Our articles are for general information only. If you are concerned about your physical or mental health, please speak to your GP or a qualified healthcare professional. If you are in crisis, contact NHS 111, or reach out to the Samaritans on 116 123, who are available around the clock.
Private healthcare in Britain is changing quickly. We intend to keep watching, asking questions, and writing it all down.
