Helping You Overcome Anxiety, OCD and Trauma

Through Evidence-Based Therapy

Our Mission

One Psychology was founded by Dr Bea Michalska with a vision of making high-quality, evidence-based psychological therapy more accessible. There is no time to waste when it comes to improving your quality of life. Whether you've been struggling for years or have only recently begun to notice something isn't quite right, meaningful change is possible.

With nearly 15 years of clinical experience across the NHS and private practice, Dr Bea and Dr Joanna provide tailored psychological therapy for adults, combining scientific evidence with genuine warmth, curiosity and understanding. Every person is different, which is why therapy is carefully adapted to your individual experiences, goals and strengths rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.

  • Bea is an incredible therapist – she helped me navigate a distressing time in my life and guided me as I processed the events leading up to it. She listened, offered comfort and challenged me to see things from multiple perspectives, showing me that I shouldn’t believe everything I think! After years of listening to an inner voice that was critical and unkind, I now hear one that is gentle and compassionate, and one that is unafraid to speak up when things aren’t right. I couldn’t have done this without Bea. As well as being a lovely person to talk to, she is knowledgeable, honest and adaptable, and I always felt safe and heard whenever we met. I will always be so grateful for her support.”

  • “I can't begin to express how much Dr. Bea's online couple therapy has meant to us. It's been a total game-changer for our relationship.We were hitting some rough patches,and that's when we found her. The online sessions are not just secure and private; they feel like talking to a wise friend who really gets it. Dr. Bea tailors each session just for us and our needs and she has been very flexible to adapt to our work schedule. Her online couple therapy has really improved our love life and we were actually surprised how an online service was so effective. I really recommend her!”

    —Cristina

  • “We did couples therapy with Dr Bea and it is one of the best things we did. Couples therapy Is very challenging but we both learnt a lot about ourselves and regularly say ‘ it’s like what Bea said’ when we are discussing things. We have both come a long way and have changed massively as people in a positive way. For me Bea Is different to other professionals I have seen previously. I found her much more helpful and honest and if we return to therapy we w ouldnt go to anyone else. We built a fantastic relationship with Dr Bea which helped hugely with our sessions. We felt we could be open and honest with no judgement. Thank you Bea!!”

  • “I highly recommend Bea. Her humanistic approach to therapy is supportive, empowering and deeply rooted in kindness”

    —Sarah

  • “Dr Bea is a great therapist who has helped me through intense periods of anxiety. Not only has she taught me coping strategies but she also helped me identify the root of the problem which has greatly improved my self awareness and ability to remove myself from situations that trigger anxious episodes. Since talking to Bea, I have noticed unimaginable leaps in self-confidence and my ability to self-regulate my emotions. I will be forever grateful for the support she has provided and would recommend her to anyone who is seeking support for their mental health”

    —Anna

  • "I have been attending online sessions with Dr Bea for about a year and a half. It has been life changing. She is kind, engaging, and is an excellent fit as a therapist for me. Dr Bea's approach considers many different ways of looking at things and really centres around having compassion for yourself. The balance between exploring different or even uncomfortable ways of thinking and then challenging them helped me frame the work that needed doing, and Bea's varied and vast knowledge was there to encourage me to do the work."

    —Scott

  • "I cannot recommend Bea enough. She is incredibly supportive and kind, always making space for you to work through things at your own pace. There is a really healthy emphasis on being able to continue applying therapy techniques on your own, so you are not overly reliant on the sessions. One of the best choices I have ever made was to start sessions with Bea; she has helped me enormously."

    —Emma

  • "I have been a client of Bea’s for several months & I am receiving trauma-focused CBT treatment due to experiencing significant effects of trauma in adulthood. I’d highly recommend Bea. Bea is smart, kind, challenging and nimble in her approach & this has really helped me to break unhealthy patterns, progress in my recovery & to achieve my goals for the therapy. In case it is helpful to those reading this review, I receive my therapy remotely (online) & the service has been seamless. It has been easy to arrange appointments & easy to conduct them. In my view, having online therapy has been ideal because It has removed stresses related to travel & privacy. I have rated Bea five gold stars & I would truly award more gold stars if I could!"

    —Sarah

  • "I started online therapy with Dr Bea after a period of intense anxiety and have so far been seeing her for around a year. Firstly I saw great improvements in my anxiety levels and overall mood as Bea helped me break out of my anxiety. Then Bea helped me understand the underlying causes and changes I could make to avoid feeling like this again. Bea has helped me become a more confident, fully actualised person and provided me with all the tools I need to keep improving my life. I would recommend online therapy with Dr Bea to anyone and have already encouraged a close friend to seek her out. I was initially hesitant about conducting therapy online but have found the whole process very smooth. I was able to organise appointments at times that suited me and could then much more easily fit a session into my week. I have never felt like I was missing out on anything by not having in person sessions."

    —Jon

  • "I came to Bea feeling very anxious and quite stressed and depressed. After several sessions of working with her, using her expertise to help me self reflect and her knowledge about how I can help myself I became more self aware and found happiness within myself. I am now in a really positive happy place and can now be a much better mum to my child. I found Bea really friendly with a warm, kind manner and would absolutely recommend her as a therapist."

    —AS

  • "Dr Bea has been the most incredible therapist for me. At the begining she spent time to really understand my needs and diagnosed my post natal anxiety before starting therapy, which I found extremely beneficial as it meant we could focus our sessions in the correct way. Dr Bea is extremely warm and has such a lovely way of analysing and treating me which I have responded well too. She really has saved me and made me look at things in a different way. My whole family can see such an improvement in my mental health which is all down to Dr Bea and the way she has guided me in all aspects. I would really recommend anyone suffering with any mental health issues to speak with her, she's amazing."

    —LV

  • "I started online therapy sessions with Dr Bea initially after struggling with long-term stress at work and didn't really know what psychotherapy was, but knew that I needed some sort of help. Dr Bea was fantastic for me - initially starting with stress and how I try to cope with it, we then explored *why* those were my default/ingrained responses and explored how to recognise and deal with them better. There were so many other benefits with the online therapy that I had no idea about at the start, but ending up with overcoming my binge-eating and stress-eating to consistently lose weight, and also face up to some deep-seated issues as well. Thanks for everything, Dr Bea!"
