Compassionate support for the emotional impact of alopecia and hair loss.
At Growth Factor Hair Clinic, we understand that hair loss isn’t only about appearance - it can touch every part of your life. For many, it affects confidence, self-esteem, relationships, and the way you move through the world. We believe that caring for you also means caring for your mind.
That’s why we’re proud to offer a dedicated Psychological Therapy Service from a Consultant Clinical Psychologist, specialising in helping people living with changes to their appearance and visible differences.

Why psychological support matters
Hair is deeply connected to identity. Losing it can feel like losing part of yourself — something few people truly understand until it happens. For some, the stress of hair loss triggers anxiety or low mood; for others, existing stress or trauma may have contributed to the onset of alopecia. Either way, the mind and body are linked. Supporting both together often leads to better wellbeing overall.
You don’t have to face it alone. Psychological therapy can help you explore how hair loss has affected your life, develop tools for coping with difficult thoughts and feelings, and move towards goals such as feeling more confident in social or work situations, or more at ease in your own skin.
