Psychotherapy
In the early years of my career I worked in the training sector, mentoring, coaching and developing people in SME's, the third sector, and multinational corporations. I decided to switch career direction when I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I used the opportunity to completely re-evaluate my life and my values, nothing sharpens the mind faster than a life threatening disease!
On my recovery I completed a Master's Degree in Psychology, which in turn led to a PG Diploma in Person Centred counselling. After my illness I developed my interest in the role of nutrition in physical and mental health, and became a nutritional psychotherapist.
I founded Mind Health Matters in 2019 and I work with individual clients on a one to one basis, as well as providing mental health services to organisations.
I am hugely passionate about all things mental health and my focus is always that I provide the very best mental health care service to everyone that I engage with and support. I collaborate with organisations who value their staff and are committed to working in partnership with industry professionals, providing Occupational Talking Therapy, Occupational Supervision, Corporate Training and Coaching, and Nutritional Psychotherapy.
My Approach to Therapy and Mental Health
I help people navigate life’s challenges by integrating psychological and nutritional approaches to support them in achieving emotional balance and overall health. I am a qualified accredited counsellor and supervisor, EMDR therapist, and nutritional psychotherapist with many years of experience in helping clients improve their overall wellbeing through an integrated approach to mental health.
I specialise in helping people process and heal from trauma, anxiety, PTSD, and other emotional distress using a holistic approach. By combining therapeutic techniques with evidence-based guidance I use my skills and knowledge to provide emotional support and therapeutic interventions to help address various psychological issues such as, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, or life transitions. I offer a safe, confidential space for clients to explore their feelings, thoughts, and behaviours, to facilitate growth.
We are not one dimensional, our mental health is complex and multifaceted, lifestyle, choices, and behaviours all play a significant role. I am passionate about providing a holistic mental health service that meets the individual needs of my clients. If you are interested and would like to learn more please get in touch for a chat about how I can help you.
Supervision
At Mind Health Matters I offer a bespoke supervision service to individuals and organisations to prioritise mental health, wellbeing, and professional development. I collaborate with organisations who value their staff and are committed to working with industry professionals, providing Occupational Supervision, Corporate Training and Coaching.
Occupational supervision is a collaborative relationship which facilitates growth and development in professional and personal spheres of life. Professionals working with people at critical times often encounter distress and experience vicarious trauma; as a trained occupational supervisor I facilitate an environment whereby you can explore and reflect on the factors in your professional and personal life that may impact your work.
I offer a confidential, safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore the challenges and trauma you encounter as part of your professional life. We work together to explore the impact of this work on your health and wellbeing. We work collaboratively to uncover personal and professional challenges to facilitate growth and improve mental health and wellbeing.
