Rupert Fishwick Therapy
When you’re used to coping, it can be hard to admit when things feel heavy
I offer calm, down-to-earth therapy for anxiety, intrusive thoughts, relationship difficulties, burnout, and feeling stuck. A space to talk openly, understand what’s happening, and move forward at your own pace
Most people who contact me have never had therapy before — that’s completely okay
Hi, I’m Rupert
Therapy for people who look like they’re coping — but inside feel exhausted, stuck, or overwhelmed.
I know what it’s like to feel lost or overwhelmed. From my own experiences I decided I wanted to support others in the same way I had been supported. Therapy for me isn’t just a session—it’s about creating a genuine space where you can be yourself, no judgment. Whether it’s in person, outdoors, or online, I’m here to listen and support you find the clarity and peace you’re looking for.
About Rupert
Background & testimonials
You might be used to carrying things on your own.
To others, life looks steady — work, family, responsibilities — but internally it can feel heavy, anxious, or difficult to switch off.
Many people I work with struggle with overthinking, intrusive thoughts, relationship strain, burnout, or a quiet sense of losing themselves. Others simply know something isn’t right, but can’t yet put it into words.
Therapy offers a space to slow down, make sense of what’s happening, and begin to move forward in a way that feels more grounded and authentic.
What therapy with me is like:
I work in a calm, down-to-earth way. Sessions are a space where you can speak openly without judgement, go at your own pace, and be gently challenged when it helps you see things differently.
Some clients come for short-term focused work, others for longer-term support — we decide together what feels right.
What Clients Say
“Rupert has a way of making you feel completely heard and understood, which allowed me to open up in ways I didn’t expect. His direct approach is incredibly insightful, and it helped me reflect on things I hadn’t considered before. I felt safe and supported every step of the way.” – AD
“I’ve had a few therapists over the years, but none made me feel as comfortable and challenged in such a positive way as Rupert did. He really listens, then asks the right questions to help me dig deeper.” – SW
What You Can Expect from me
When I started therapy, I realised how important it was to feel truly heard. It’s something I strive for in my own practice—creating a space where you feel safe to explore your thoughts and emotions. But it’s not all about just listening. I’m also not afraid to challenge you, in a positive way, when I hear something that deserves deeper reflection. We’ll dig into your statements and beliefs, helping you gain insight and perspective, so you can move forward with more clarity and confidence. Here’s what you can expect to find:
