WORK with ME

Therapy with me isn’t just about talking—it’s about long-term change. If you’re tired of worrying you’re too much and not enough, fed up of feeling burnt out, anxious, and overwhelmed by constantly trying to meet everyone else’s needs, my approach can help you break free from the pressure to please others and start focusing on yourself.

FROM ANXIOUS PEOPLE-PLEASER TO TRUE SELF ACCEPTANCE & AUTHENTIC CONFIDENCE

•

FROM ANXIOUS PEOPLE-PLEASER TO TRUE SELF ACCEPTANCE & AUTHENTIC CONFIDENCE •

I help women who…

  • Struggle to say "no" without guilt or anxiety

  • Feel burned out from work, relationships, or social obligations

  • Have a history of masking their true self

  • Feel responsible for how other people feel

  • Constantly over-apologise and struggle with over-thinking and over-explaining

  • Fear confrontation, rejection, and the discomfort of difficult conversations

  • Feel like an imposter despite being accomplished

  • Are unsure about who they really are beyond the mask they’ve worn for years

This is exactly why I created a proven 6 step method so you can start saying ‘yes’ to the real you without guilt and anxiety.

Integrating evidence-based interventions drawn from EMDR, Schema Therapy and CBT and other modalities, I combine over 20 years studying psychology and 15 years of experience, neuroscience, attachment theory, and nervous system regulation to create long-term change

FOR CLIENTS

UNLOCK CLARITY

Not ready to commit to therapy? Start with an UNLOCK Clarity session. If you feel stuck in people-pleasing, and struggling to set boundaries but don’t know why or how to change it, this session is for you. Perhaps you’re sick of being the one always doing more in your relationships or at work or you find yourself overthinking and doubting your decisions. 

In this 90-minute deep-dive session, we’ll map out exactly why you continue to struggle, what’s keeping you stuck, and how to break the cycle. We’ll also have a follow-up session within 4 weeks.

  • ✔ You feel stuck but aren’t ready to commit to a full 3-month package.
    ✔ You need clarity before taking action - you know something’s off but don’t fully understand why you struggle or can’t pinpoint what exactly you need to do about it.
    ✔ You’d like to try a session with me before committing to more sessions.

    THIS ISN’T FOR YOU IF…

    🚫 You’re looking for in-depth trauma processing in a single session.
    (If past experiences have shaped your struggles, this session can absolutely help you make sense of them and how they show up in your life today - but we won’t be doing deep trauma processing in this session.)

    🚫 You’re in crisis and need immediate support.
    (This session is not designed for urgent mental health needs or crisis intervention.)

    🚫 You’re looking for an instant ‘fix’ without taking further steps.
    (This session will give you deep clarity and a clear roadmap, but lasting change happens when you put what you discover into practice.)

  • ✔ A clear understanding of what’s driving your struggles (it’s not just a mindset issue—there’s a reason you feel stuck).


    ✔ A personalised therapist-led formulation & personalised roadmap connecting the dots and outlining the underlying patterns, beliefs, and behaviours keeping you in the cycle.


    ✔ Actionable steps to start breaking free from people-pleasing, masking and self-doubt.

  • What You Can Expect From UNLOCK Clarity:

    ✅ Pre-Session Questionnaire: Before your session, you’ll receive a comprehensive questionnaire. This tool is designed to help you reflect on your experiences and prepare to get the most out of our time together.

    ✅ 90-Minute Private 1:1 Session: This structured deep-dive session will allow us to map out your emotional and behavioural patterns and identify critical shifts needed for change. Together, we’ll explore your unique challenges in a supportive and understanding environment.

    ✅ Personalised Formulation & Plan: At the end of your session, you’ll receive a personalised formulation of your struggles. This plan will clarify what has been keeping you stuck and provide you with a clear path forward, tailored to your specific needs and goals.

    ✅ 30-Minute Private 1-1 Follow-Up Session: A 30-minute follow-up will be scheduled within 4 weeks to review your progress and address any new or ongoing concerns. This is a great opportunity to refine your plan and ensure you have the support you need to continue making positive changes.

    ✅ Option to Upgrade: ‘UNLOCK Clarity’ is a standalone therapeutic experience designed to provide immediate insights and strategies. If you wish to delve deeper, you have the option to seamlessly transition and apply your payment from ‘UNLOCK Clarity’ towards the ‘UNLOCK Change’ package. This ensures continuity in your therapeutic journey and further personal growth without repeating initial steps.

FOR CLIENTS

UNLOCK CHANGE

3 MONTH 1:1 THERAPY PROGRAM

Break free from people-pleasing and start saying yes to YOU—without guilt, anxiety, or overthinking.

You know you need to stop people-pleasing, but… it feels impossible. You’ve read the books and listened to the podcasts. You’ve promised yourself this time will be different. You tell yourself you’ll say no next time, but when the moment comes, you freeze and say yes before you’ve had time to think, you feel a wave of anxiety, over-explain yourself or you spend hours replaying conversations in your head.

Sound familiar? UNLOCK CHANGE is for you!

  • ✅ This is for you if:

    • You struggle with people-pleasing habits, masking, over-explaining, or guilt when setting boundaries.

    • You’ve read the self-help books but still can’t break the pattern.

    • You’re ready to take manageable action steps outside of our sessions to create real change.

    • You’re ready to commit to real change and want structured support & accountability.

    🚫 This is NOT for you if:

    • You’re in active crisis (this program focuses on patterns & behaviour change, not crisis intervention).

    • You’re looking for a quick fix rather than investing in a structured evidence-based transformative method.

  • This isn’t just about ‘saying no’ more often.

    It’s about rewiring the patterns that make saying no feel impossible in the first place.

    Through an integrative evidence-based approach you’ll gain:

    ✔ A clear personalised roadmap of why you people-please—and how to break free from it.
    ✔ Tools to retrain your brain & nervous system, so standing your ground doesn’t feel like a threat.
    ✔ Strategies to stop over-apologising, shrinking yourself, and avoiding conflict out of fear.
    ✔ The confidence to set boundaries and prioritise your needs—without feeling selfish.

    By the end of these 3 months, you’ll have a clear, actionable plan to step into your authentic self with clarity and confidence.

  • 🔹 6 x Private 1:1 Therapy Sessions Over 3 Months

    🔹 Pre-Session Goal-Setting Module

    Before we begin, you’ll complete a brief video + goal-setting exercise to help you get clear on what you want from our work together.

    Your blueprint for understanding exactly what’s keeping you stuck and how to shift it.

    🔹 A Proven 6-Step Method to UNLOCK Change and Break Free from People-Pleasing.

    Each session focuses on a key step in the transformation process:

    ✅ Understand your patterns – Why you people-please, where it comes from & how to recognise it in real-time.
    ✅ Notice & Rewire Your Mindset – Challenging negative thoughts & limiting beliefs keeping you stuck.
    ✅ Let Go of Automatic Habits – Identifying & shifting the knee-jerk behaviours that reinforce people-pleasing.
    ✅ Own Your Wants & Needs – Learning how to prioritise yourself without guilt (mindfulness, boundary scripts, self-compassion).
    ✅ Cultivate Self-Trust – So that speaking up feels safer, not like a risk.
    ✅ Keep Embodying Your Authentic Self – A plan to maintain progress & avoid slipping back into old habits.

    🔹 Bite-Sized Video Modules & PDFs

    Short, digestible supplementary lessons to help you implement what we cover in sessions.

    🔹 Support Between Sessions

    As part of your journey, you'll have access to email support (or voicenote if you prefer!) for those times when challenges unexpectedly pop up between our sessions. This feature allows you to reach out for brief check-ins and targeted advice, ensuring you feel supported every step of the way. Please note, this is intended for occasional use to enhance your experience and progress, rather than for daily inquiries, allowing us to maintain a focused and effective therapeutic process

For THERAPISTS

Support Designed For Therapists, By a Therapist Who Gets It

I get it—because I’ve been there.

You guide clients to embrace confidence and authenticity, yet deep down, you struggle with the same challenges. You help others set boundaries, but doing it yourself feels uncomfortable. You support clients through self-doubt, yet imposter syndrome whispers in your own ear.

If you:

  • Feel stuck when it comes to marketing yourself authentically or too anxious to promote your service.

  • Struggle to set boundaries with clients, colleagues, or even yourself.

  • Worry about showing up online for fear of judgment.

  • Notice countertransference but aren’t sure how to navigate it.

  • Want to explore your own patterns so you can show up more fully in your work and life.

You’re not alone—and it doesn’t mean you’re not a great therapist. It simply means you’re human.

These sessions offer a space to reflect, work through mindset barriers, and build confidence—so you can show up fully as both a therapist and a person.

  • ✔️ You want a safe, supportive space to reflect on your practice, challenges, limiting beliefs or mindset.
    ✔️ You're open to exploring your own patterns, triggers, and barriers to confidence.
    ✔️ You’re ready to navigate self-doubt, perfectionism, and fear of judgment with curiosity.
    ✔️ You’d value a relatable, down-to-earth mentor to help you gain clarity and direction.

    Not ideal if you’re looking for formal rigid supervision or are unwilling to engage in self-reflection.

  • 🔹 Clarity and confidence in your voice, presence, and authenticity.
    🔹 Tools & techniques to navigate countertransference, imposter syndrome, self-criticism and other barriers that are keeping you stuck.
    🔹 A down to earth yet empowering space to explore ideas, gain perspective, and discover what’s holding you back and what you can do to move forward.

  • ✔ Pre-session questionnaire to help tailor the session to your needs.
    ✔ Expert guidance drawing from 15+ years of experience.
    ✔ A down-to-earth, relatable approach in a safe, supportive space.
    ✔ A personalised 1-1 session - whether it’s mentoring, mindset coaching, or exploring a specific challenge.

    ✔ Practical tools and strategies you can start using immediately to build confidence and clarity.

FAQs

  • The UNLOCK Method is a structured six-step approach focusing on understanding your people-pleasing patterns, noticing and rewiring your mindset, letting go of unhelpful habits, owning your wants and needs, cultivating self-trust, to empower you to keep embodying your authentic self. Each step is designed to help you build the skills and confidence needed to set healthy boundaries and say yes to the real you.

  • While Unlock Change provides a structured 3-month program focused on overcoming people-pleasing behaviors, Unlock Freedom offers a more flexible approach to therapy. It's designed for continued personal growth and deeper exploration of complex issues that may not be fully addressed in a structured program. Unlock Freedom adapts to your evolving needs, allowing for sessions to be booked as needed or through a block of sessions at a reduced rate.

  • Absolutely! If after your Unlock Clarity session you feel ready to Unlock Change let me know within 7 days of your session and the fee you’ve paid will be applied to the 3 month package.

    This option is designed to make it easy for you to continue your journey towards change without interruption.

  • If you’re feeling unsure about what level of support is right for you, Unlock Clarity is the best place to start. This 90-minute deep-dive session will help us explore your patterns, struggles, and goals so you can gain a clear roadmap for change.

    And if you decide to continue with the full Unlock Change package?
    You can put the cost of Unlock Clarity toward your Unlock Change investment, making it a seamless next step.

  • I have vast experience of working with people experiencing a range of difficulties whether that be PTSD, Complex trauma, panic attacks, social or health anxiety, worry, overthinking and overwhelm, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and more.  Some of the people I work with don’t realise they are people-pleasers until we start exploring their patterns of behaviour and thought processes. Feel free to contact me to find out more about how I can help.

  • The 'Unlock Change' package offers a focused and structured approach tailored specifically to overcoming people-pleasing behaviors. Unlike traditional therapy, which often explores a wide range of issues on an open-ended basis, this three-month program is designed with clear goals and outcomes, providing a compact timeline for measurable progress. This isn’t just 6 sessions of standard generic therapy. Here’s what makes it uniquely effective:

    1. A Targeted Step by Step Approach: Each session is carefully crafted to address your difficulties and work towards your goals, employing evidence-based techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, and EMDR and more.

    2. Comprehensive Framework: The 'Unlock Method' underpins this program, blending educational content, self-awareness exercises, and practical strategies. You won’t just talk about your struggles—you’ll work through proven methods designed to unlock real change.

    3. Enhanced Learning Materials: Video modules serve to deepen your understanding of key concepts discussed during sessions and supplement our work together. Accompanying PDFs offer exercises, worksheets, and summaries that you can refer to anytime to help cement your learning and progress.

    4. Between-Session Support: You’re not alone between our sessions. You’ll receive limited email or voice note support to help you apply what you’ve learned, troubleshoot challenges, and maintain momentum.

    5. Measured Progress: We start with a deep dive 90 minute session to Unlock Clarity around your needs and goals and conclude with an evaluation to measure your outcomes, ensuring the therapy is effective and responsive to your journey.

    By integrating direct therapy alongside supportive educational materials and structured follow-up, the 'Unlock Change' package is designed to provide a structured yet personalised effective therapeutic experience.

  • All sessions take place online via Zoom and the beauty of that is you can decide where they take place - as long as it’s in an appropriate, comfortable confidential setting.

    Appointments usually take place Monday - Wednesday from 9:30am with my latest available appointment taking place at 4:30pm.

    There may be occasions when I can offer you a Thursday appointment.

  • Due to the nature of private practice, I’m unable to provide crisis support or respond to urgent requests. If you need emotional support as a matter of urgency please contact the Samaritans on 116 123 or text SHOUT on 85258.  You can also seek support from your GP or local mental health service / crisis team.   If you are concerned you may be at risk of hurting yourself and are worried you may not be able to keep yourself safe please call 999 or attend A&E.
