Dr Liam Reilly offers help with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, depression and addictions. He also supports people with relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting concerns, self-esteem and career questions. He works with people affected by bipolar disorder, ADHD, compassion fatigue and coping with life changes.
Dr Reilly is named up front because he leads this work and brings eleven years of clinical experience to sessions.
Background and approach
He approaches therapy in a person-centred way. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to each person. He aims to create a space for honest conversation and practical problem solving.
The focus is on helping people find strategies that fit their daily lives. Dr Reilly draws on a mix of methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioural techniques and dialectical behaviour skills. These approaches are used to address patterns of thinking, emotional regulation and relationship difficulties.
Techniques are selected to match the concern and the person sitting in front of him. His background includes work in the NHS, independent practice, corporate and education settings. He has provided training and supervision as well as direct psychological support.
He is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council, shown as HCPC. Sessions can cover practical coping skills, exploring past experiences that shape current behaviour, and building new ways of relating to others. The emphasis is on clear, achievable steps and on supporting people through change.
How therapy approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and teaches practical skills to shift those patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and problems with sleep or eating. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and can help with intimacy and communication issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods best fit the person’s goals and preferences. Sessions can combine elements from different approaches and are adjusted as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation from wherever they are. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging offer brief check-ins, written reflections and flexible contact between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to use methods that suit daily life.
