Dr Stephen Pereira

Spear’s Review

Over his 25 years practising as a psychiatrist, Dr Stephen Pereira has become attuned to the needs of City highfliers and Mayfair money managers. His practice, Althea, in London Bridge and on the King's Road, Pereira develops strategies to help high-powered executives cope with stress and manage their frenetic schedules, favouring preventative measures wherever possible.

His high-profile clients include James Middleton and ITV newsreader Tom Bradby, whom he treated for insomnia, as well as former Lloyds Banking Group head honcho António Horta-Osório. Prior to private practice Dr Pereira was a leading clinician in NHS hospitals in North London. He has also developed university clinical courses and co-authored a globally-significant textbook on best practices for intensive psychiatric care.
