Support / Qualifications
I can provide in-person & online evidence based therapy, tailored to help you feel more present, think clearer, and live more fully aligned with what's important to you
You may have found this page because you are:
- Constantly overthinking and feeling out of the present moment?
- Often feeling like you’re running on autopilot and can’t seem to slow down?
- Feeling anxious and stressed a lot of the time, perhaps about “not doing enough” and “not being enough”?
- Constantly having thoughts and worries (e.g. what ifs and worst case scenarios) that make you feel on edge, frustrated and irritable?
- A perfectionist and/or high-achiever who experiences productivity guilt when not working and/or anxiety about having to constantly meet high standards?
- Feeling burnt out, fatigued and tired, yet struggle to slow down and rest?
- Self-sabotaging and/or having thoughts and beliefs about yourself that stand in the way of you living your life?
- Struggling with your relationship with food and/or body and just wanting to feel more at peace with it all?
You are not alone. These are some common areas that I support people with.
Together we can build a toolbox of lifestyle practices and strategies to help you with:
- Managing anxiety, mood and worrying …with more confidence, courage and ease
- Quietening the overthinking, to reduce your mind going over the same things in your head (over and over)
- Understanding and changing your relationship to your thoughts so you can be more present with people and things you love
- Letting go of perfectionism, getting more balance and slowing down a bit…without that productivity guilt in order to minimise burnout
- Being more supportive of yourself and building a kinder and safer relationship with food and body
- Building more confidence in YOU and stop second-guessing yourself all the time so you can stretch your comfort zone and grow in ways that feel GOOD to you!
- Getting better at noticing and managing your emotions, and taking action that is important to you… instead of spiralling in your head about why you shouldn’t
- Being kinder to yourself so you can stop beating yourself up for every little thing
- Being more okay with uncertainty and imperfection…and not having all the answers all of the time
