About me and my therapy practice
I am so passionate about helping people with work life balance to ensure you are able to find clarity, routine and emotional regulation. I work in an integrated way and am passionate about helping people to make positive shift. I am trained in EMDR, CBT, DBT, REBT, NLP, Life Coaching, Play Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy and many other approaches.
I set up my company in 2008 and have always worked employed alongside. I have worked within the council for 9 years under children and families and 5 years in the NHS mental health organisations. I have gradually increased self employed and reduced employed work and I am leaving the NHS in July as I am pursuing my passion and purpose!
I have 2 children a 5 year old and a 2 year old. When I returned from maternity leave in 2019 I was planning on rebranding the business and launching April 2020. Well I obviously wasn't aware of the changes that would happen... but I have been on an amazing growth journey both personally and professionally. Like a lot of mums I struggled with regaining my identity after having my children and getting 'me back.' I spent the first lockdown reclaiming my identity and the rest of the year in a massive period of growth for my business.
Coming online has opened my eyes to a whole new way of working and I am super excited to be sharing this with you. I am using an app portal for my programs, working online as well as face to face and I am about to launch my workplace well-being strategy 'Inspire Teams.' I have grown my social media platforms from nothing and have a facebook group where I offer free support (get in there if you want to find out more about me!)
I am now an executive contributor to Brainz Magazine and have written articles for many well known publications such as GQ. I am also part of the Corporate WellBeing Expo which is supporting Businesses as part of the Business Revival Conference.
Practice description
This last year has been tough right? We have had to adapt like never before! Now that life in the UK is slowly finding its flow again many people are finding themselves at a crossroads. Do I want to go back to a stressful office environment? Do I want to work long hours? Do I want to go back out in the world again?
Many Companies are adapting the way they are working too and office environments are adapting to a new normal. I've heard a lot about the 60/40% split for employees and I think everyone is reflecting on the year we have just had!

Work life balance,
Lifestyle
Routine
Anxiety

About me and my therapy practice
Having experienced burnout in 2015 I am really passionate about supporting organisations to work preventatively supporting staff wellbeing. I am a mother to 2 young children and strive to have a great work life balance and encourage others to do the same. Trained in a multitude of different approaches, you can be rest assured you don't need to try and work out what support you require. I am currently working on ILM Level 7 (equivalent of a masters in leadership and management) and have a real desire and drive to learn new things.
When working with people we do so in a fun and innovative way. Once we have worked with the business owner/ SLT to establish a wellbeing strategy, we start to implement key support to staff.
We have a variety of assessment tools including a wellbeing assessment, and utilise DISC personality profiling. This helps people to understand where they are at and undertake self development around key emotional intelligence areas. We then use this to feedback into the wellbeing strategy and bespoke support.
We then offer a variety of support from management training, mental health first aider support through to staff workshops and webinars. This is not 'death by powerpoint' and includes anything from LEGO challenges, ICE baths, and creative tasks. We like practical sessions for interactive support.
We can offer team coaching and individual support.
Get in touch and let us know your needs and we can find the right solution.

Practice description
Supervision is about having a safe space to creatively challenge, explore, acknowledge and support supervisees which will enhance professional development and confidence. Supervision should be fun, useful and empowering to increase insight, self-reflection and to find solutions.
I trained as a Creative Clinical Supervisor in 2015 and Practice Educator in 2017. I love supporting other professionals to explore formulations, unpick complex cases and navigate different pathways within the therapeutic journey.
I support individuals 1:1 and also companies in a group supervision format. I have supported school senior leadership teams in particular to support students and staff.
My first session

The first session is a space to get to know each other. I will be wanting to find out about you, your experience, background client group and how you work. What you have found useful about supervision and what you have struggled with.
You get the chance to work out if we are the right match before you commit.
