Common Questions
CBT therapy in Leeds —
frequently asked
Do I need to travel to access therapy in Leeds?
No. All Chazon PHD CIC therapy sessions are delivered online via secure video call. You can access the same clinical-grade therapy from your home, office or anywhere with a private internet connection.
How long does therapy take?
CBT is a structured, time-limited approach. Most clients see significant progress within 8–20 sessions, depending on the presenting difficulty. Your intake call will give you a clearer indication of what to expect for your specific situation.
Is the therapist BABCP registered?
Yes. Dr Anthony Ataekong is fully accredited by the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) — the lead body for CBT in the UK. He is also a member of the European Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Therapies (EABCT).
What is the difference between Chazon PHD CIC and an NHS therapist?
Dr Anthony works within the NHS as a psychological therapist and brings that clinical experience to private practice. Unlike NHS therapy, private sessions have no waiting list, no session caps, flexible scheduling, and a personalised approach from the very first session.
What if I cannot afford therapy?
Chazon PHD CIC runs several free community programmes for those who cannot access private therapy. If cost is a barrier, please explore our free programmes — Beth Chazon, AYAKA MMI, My Paddy and MindClub — all free, all open access, no referral required.
