Testimonials
I was referred to Dr Zygouris by my doctor. He has helped me tremendously with stress and depression; I am in a much-improved position now thanks to Dr Zygouris.
Dr Zygouris is my go-to Psychologist to help patients with mental health problems. My patients are satisfied and make great progress with him. Thank you for the great work.
Nick helped me become more confident and stable in our time together. I benefitted a great deal from his professional care. He is attentive and knowledgeable, caring and reassuring. I would strongly recommend him to anyone in need.
As somebody who had never received help for mental health problems before I was quite apprehensive to start CBT. However, such feelings dissipated almost immediately after meeting Dr Nick as he made me feel so welcome and comfortable. He has a very calm and soothing nature whilst he would also often be able to make me laugh during the lowest and darkest times of my life.
I just wanted to say thank you for everything. I really appreciate it.
I have tried counselling in the past and I didn’t take to it and it put me off trying again when I faced some challenges last year. But Nick was great and I am so glad I saw him. From the outset, I trusted him and was able to work through my challenges with him. He was also not afraid to challenge my thoughts and assumptions. I cannot recommend him enough.
