Whether you are an existing or new patient our focus is on helping you. Psychological services are deemed essential services and we remain available for face to face appointments. I am fortunate to be in private practice as a sole treating psychologist, primarily this means that you will be the only person in the waiting area.
The consultation room/s have adequate space to ensure that all current government recommendations are met pertaining to face to face sessions. Social distancing regulations are observed in the waiting area and reception. Our building is well prepared to minimise potential exposure, this includes hand sanitisers either side of both lifts as well as in each lift.

I've wanted to share my experience with Kelvin because I think it's a strong testament to his professionalism and ability to help, and quickly. I was facing some difficult circumstances and could not see a way forward. Kelvin was focused on first understanding the problem, and then helping find a solution that I could implement. He mentored me as we implemented a plan to address the problem - which was successful far sooner than I had thought possible.
I had previously been hesitant about visiting a psychologist because - apart from the stigma - I worried it would be endlessly talking without

Update after another 2 months.....
My life has never been clearer and with Kelvin's guidance I have continued to thrive, yes I have fallen over, but now I have the tools to pick myself up and keep going and Kelvin has never judged me for any choices I have made. His excitement at my wins inspires me to keep going, he is proud of me and that is something I will never take for granted. My only regret is I didn't find him sooner.
After over 30 years in some form of therapy I had almost given up. I knew I needed a strong and experienced psychologist to call me out and challenge me. Kelvin's experience

Kelvin took me on a few years back, and has never made me feel like it was a bad idea on his behalf.
With the series of unfortunate events that is my past, (and sometimes present life), I have presented myself at his office many times, with no self worth, no aim, no idea of who i was or where i was supposed to be.
Time and time again i have fallen to my knees, and Kelvin never fails to guide me and help me see that i have never failed, and that i have the strength and courage to make it through anything i get thrown at me.
He is very professional, and very warming. I have never felt like i don

I've known Kelvin Larfield professionally for the last year. I find his approach to be highly focussed towards me as a client and I have referred friends and colleagues to Mr Larfield as a result. Whilst it may be unusual for a client to make such comments I'm confident that if you need a professional to discuss your personal situation with, then have no hesitation in discussing your needs with Kelvin Larfield

After some 35 years working front line as a Police Officer, cracks started to develop in my life. Serious cracks. I was too stubborn to acknowledge this until my G.P. insisted I do something about it. I was referred to Kelvin. My idea was about an hour or so should fix this, how wrong could I have been. ( Only weak people have this happen to them was my firm opinion) I can seriously say my life changed in that first hour and I began to realise I did need some help. Never have I dealt with a more professional, caring & dedicated person such as Kelvin has been. He has given my life & my family's

I was introduced to Kelvin after some major employment turmoil which greatly affected me as an individual, my self-worth as a person, my questioning of why I mattered and my relationship with close friends and family. After months of no treatment activity and visiting Kelvin for the first time, I felt a glimmer of hope, here was someone who is here for me. From day one I felt that he had the compassion and expertise to drag me out of my depressed imploding mental state.
Kelvin’s carefully chosen words, observations, questioning and when needed firmness have encouraged and allowed me to move

Due to a series of significant traumas experienced by my family, my children and I have received assistance from 8 different psychologist and social workers to deal with post traumatic stress, anxiety disorders and a spectrum of associated issues.
Each specialist brought different perspectives and skills to the table. Some were clearly adept at engaging with some clients. Some had a modern breadth of knowledge. Some had a full quiver of tools to utilise.
The care and assistance I received from Kelvin stands far above the rest in every way. He is engaging and insightful, has a broad set of knowledge
