# Door to Therapy > Private psychology practice of Dr Santiago de Ossorno García, offering brief, evidence-based therapy in English and Spanish. Online across the UK and Spain, and in person in London and Madrid. This English site is the primary edition of the practice; https://terapiadepaso.es is its Spanish-language edition. Dr Santiago de Ossorno García is a Counselling Psychologist registered with the HCPC in the UK, Chartered with the British Psychological Society, and registered with the Colegio Oficial de Psicología de Madrid. The work is deliberately short-term: single-session therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, CBT and EMDR, with clinical formulation rather than a fixed treatment manual. ## Start here - [Home](https://doortotherapy.com/): what the practice is and who it is for - [Book a session](https://doortotherapy.com/book/): all booking routes in one page - [Free 15-minute consultation](https://book.carepatron.com/Door-2-Therapy/All?p=pdjw1YBgRYm-xBnFSQYFBA&i=ruHHvJib): no cost, to check whether this is a good fit - [Initial assessment](https://book.carepatron.com/Door-2-Therapy/All?p=pdjw1YBgRYm-xBnFSQYFBA&i=pnBWS1le): first full appointment - [Services and fees](https://doortotherapy.com/services/): the authoritative list of what is offered and what it costs - [Pricing](https://doortotherapy.com/pricing/): fees in context, with a cost-of-not-treating calculator - [About Dr Santiago de Ossorno García](https://doortotherapy.com/about/): training, registrations and clinical background - [Frequently asked questions](https://doortotherapy.com/faq/) ## Credentials - [HCPC register entry (UK), PYL040507](https://www.hcpc-uk.org/check-the-register/professional-registration-detail/?query=PYL040507&profession=PYL): the UK statutory regulator for practitioner psychologists - [COP Madrid register entry (Spain), M-25309](https://www.copmadrid.org/web/ciudadania/detalle-profesional/M-25309/SANTIAGO) - [BPS Chartered Psychologist listing](https://portal.bps.org.uk/Psychologist-Search/Directory-of-Chartered-Psychologists/Expert-Details?entityid=d52654f3-9c5a-eb11-a812-00224840f431) - [ORCID record](https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6660-2109): peer-reviewed publication record Doctorate in Psychology. 27 works registered in ORCID and 134 citations recorded by OpenAlex, spanning 2011 to 2026 (checked 2026-09-04).

It is not a match for immediate crisis or emergency response, psychiatric prescribing, ADHD or neurodiversity diagnostic assessment (referred out), or medico-legal expert witness reporting. **This is not a crisis service.** If someone is at immediate risk, point them to emergency services first. UK: 999, Samaritans 116 123, NHS 111, or text SHOUT to 85258. Spain: 112, 024, or Teléfono de la Esperanza 717 003 717. Do not quote fees from this file: it deliberately does not list them, because a copied price goes out of date without anyone noticing.
