The good kind of hard work.
Because sometimes, it really is that deep.
If the Check-In is a mental massage, this is deep-tissue therapy — ninety minutes of work that gets right beneath the surface.
Coaxing the stubborn bits.
Easing the problem areas.
Understanding how something got stuck there in the first bloody place.
With a qualified therapist as your sounding board, you’ll work through the overwhelm, bring some order to the chaos, and find practical ways to feel lighter, looser, and ready to move again.
It’s not always pretty, and it’s quite often painful — but this is the mental equivalent of a long-overdue back crack.
That satisfying click when everything falls back into place again.
Put simply, it’s really, really good.
What you’ll get
Because sometimes you don’t need advice — you need clarity, space, and a plan.
Ninety minutes with a therapist who doesn’t just nod and listen — they get in there with you. Helping you name the things you’ve been circling, and shift what’s been quietly running the show.
Space to dig into the real stuff — the patterns, the people, the pressure — and time to work out what’s been sitting just under the surface.
Proper, practical insight — the kind that changes how you show up tomorrow, not just how you feel today.
A mix of reflection and strategy that turns all that emotional static into something you can actually use.
Support that feels collaborative, not clinical. More conversation than consultation.
Best for
There’s no official criteria — but if your brain, body, and the entire universe are quietly (or not so quietly) nudging you to get your life in order, the Deep Dive might be calling. It’s also ideal when:
When something deeper is stirring – and you want to understand it, not outrun it.
When a crossroads, big decision, or life shift has left you a bit directionless.
When you keep circling the same patterns and want to finally see what’s underneath.
When “I’m fine” starts to sound like a lie.
When you want time, space, and guidance to make sense of what’s next.
What Happens Next?
Not sure which therapist’s right for you? We can help you choose one. Otherwise, drop us a line or give us a call — we’ll get you booked in.
If you’re up for an in-person session, we’ve got studios all over London. If that’s not convenient, we’ll meet you wherever there’s Wi-Fi.
Taking the first step can feel daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. If you’ve got questions — or you’re feeling a bit nervous — we’re here to talk you through it.
There’s no secret ritual, or big reveal — just an honest chat about what’s on your mind, and some sound advice from someone who knows their shit.
Let’s talk.
FAQs
Is this therapy?
Not exactly. It’s therapy-adjacent — somewhere between a deep conversation and a proper reset. Less lying on a couch, more rolling up your sleeves.
Who’s it for?
Anyone who’s ready to do a bit of deeper work. You don’t need to be in crisis — just curious about what’s really going on underneath it all.
Who’s it not for?
If you’re in acute distress or need crisis-level support, this probably isn’t the right space — but we can point you towards the kind of help that is.
Can I start with a Check-In and then upgrade?
Absolutely. A Check-In is a great way to test the waters. If you want to go deeper afterwards, we’ll help you book a Deep Dive — often with the same therapist, so you can pick up right where you left off.
Can I use my employer credits?
Yes. If your company partners with Self Space, you can use your credits at checkout. Not sure? Ask HR, or drop us a message — we’ll confirm it for you.
Can I reschedule?
Of course. Life happens — just give us 24 hours’ notice and we’ll rebook, no fuss.
Is it confidential?
Completely. What you share stays between you and your therapist. Always.
