In their words
I began to see Ian when I was at crisis point. His approach supported me in ways I hadn’t known were essential to healing, and I believe that ADHD medication is nothing without therapy.
After six sessions with Ian he made me realise I wasn’t broken and had so much to look forward to.
Ian is a natural psychotherapist who is warm, diligent and attentive, with an ability to say the unpalatable with wisdom and kindness.
I will be forever thankful to Ian for the positive impact he has had on my life. Ian is a kind, intuitive and thoughtful therapist who allowed me the opportunity and safe space to understand myself better and deal with my difficulties. Without doubt, I am a more confident, self-aware and ultimately happier person thanks to my therapy.
I highly recommend Ian King-Brown, whom I’ve known for many years. He is an outstanding and reliable professional.
As I had been having some serious difficulties for about five years, I was prepared to commit to psychotherapy for as long as it would take to get my life back on track. I was referred by a professional body and I think I struck lucky. Now I would not consider going to anyone else.
I have known Ian for over five years. He is a charming, sensitive and thoughtful professional with over 25 years’ experience.
