NOSA CBT Bristol
About NOSA
NOSA is a specialist service dedicated to helping people overcome anxieties and phobias using skilled evidence-based psychological therapies proven to work through research and clinical trials. We specialise in CBT Bristol based treatment, ensuring local support for individuals looking to improve their mental health and well-being.
As a specialist service, we aim to deliver our services in the most flexible and innovative way possible. This can include CBT therapy in Bristol homes or community settings, rather than requiring visits to a clinic. Each therapy package is carefully designed to meet the unique needs of the people we work with.
What is CBT?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a practical, evidence-based talking therapy that helps you manage your mental health by focusing on:
Thoughts and Feelings
Understanding how your thoughts affect your emotions and behaviours.
Patterns and Habits
Identifying unhelpful patterns and breaking the cycle of negative thinking
Practical Tools
Learning strategies to tackle challenges and make positive changes in your daily life.
At NOSA, our cognitive behavioural therapy in Bristol approach can be tailored to a wide range of issues, helping you develop resilience and regain control over life’s challenges.

Our therapy space
As a national service with an emphasis on flexible care, we can work with you anywhere in the UK. Much of our work takes place in the homes and communities of the people we see; however, we also have a Bristol CBT clinic setting available for in-person sessions. If more appropriate, we can also scale up our therapy rooms and facilities to best meet your needs.

What Our Clients Say
Hear from those who have transformed their lives with our therapy services. Read their experiences below and explore more testimonials to see how our evidence-based therapy has made a difference.
I started therapy sessions with James after a year of particularly bad anxiety and OCD which lead me to feel depressed and I was struggling to continue running my business. From the first session I felt supported and listened to. I always thought CBT would be mainly practical therapy but I was pleased at how much of the treatment was talk therapy and exploring the route of my issues. Very quickly I started to feel hopeful and more positive about life again. Over the 11 months of therapy I learnt so much about how my mind works and I was also able to change the way I approach challenges and anxieties. Therapy with James has taken me from my darkest year to my happiest, I am leaving with the tools to continue to face the challenges life brings knowing that I can cope.
ML
My daughter suffered anixety from the lockdown and after trying tablets from the doctors and four other therapists we could hardly get her out of the house.
Within 4 weeks David had her going out on a regular basis and attending school fully.
Now after 3 months she is completely back to normal, no longer taking tablets and able to deal with her anixety.
I can’t thank them enough
