Dr. Liam Reilly
Experienced clinical psychologist focused on practical change
About Liam
Dr Liam Reilly helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, anger and addiction. He supports concerns around self-esteem, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, career challenges and bipolar difficulties. He also works with ADHD, compassion fatigue and other coping challenges.
Dr Reilly is named up front because he leads the work and brings a steady, experienced presence to sessions. He uses a collaborative, person-centred style that aims to make therapy practical and understandable.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear strategies and everyday language. People can expect an approach that encourages self-expression and gradual change rather than jargon or long theoretical explanations. Dr Reilly holds registration with the Health and Care Professions Council, shown as HCPC.
He has 11 years of experience working across the NHS, personal, corporate and educational settings, and has provided training and supervision alongside clinical work. That background informs his flexible way of tailoring sessions to individual needs. In practice he blends methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking and dialectical behaviour ideas.
The aim is to give tools for managing difficult feelings, breaking unhelpful patterns and rebuilding day-to-day coping. Sessions are available in English and can be arranged for clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. Therapy is designed to be collaborative, with goals and pace decided together so people feel they are moving at a workable speed.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values; it is useful for anxiety, depression and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns that keep problems going, such as insomnia or low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationship patterns affect current trust and closeness, and can help with intimacy-related issues and attachment concerns.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options, try methods out, and adjust the approach based on what works for the person’s goals and preferences. This shared planning helps make sure sessions feel relevant and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in with lower bandwidth needs, live chat suits quick exchanges and texting supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study or caring responsibilities while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional support.
