➡️I figured it was time you met the real brains behind the operation. While I handle the clinical side, these two make sure I don't spend too much time staring at a screen.

The Co-Therapists.

💕Skye:
Title: Head of Emotional Regulation & Fetch
Modalities
Specialisation: The "Intense Stare"-known for encouraging deep breakthroughs. 💭

💙Rocky:
Title: Chief Happiness Officer.
Specialisation: Expert at "unconditional positive regard" and morale boosting.

🙋🏼‍♀️The Lead Human: Dawn
Role: Practice Manager, Lead Psychotherapist, and Professional Ball-Thrower.
Expertise: I hold the actual qualifications to help you navigate life's challenges, though my coworkers believe most problems can be solved with a brisk walk and a ball!🥎

While I handle the "deep talk" and evidence-based strategies, these two are in charge of the “paws-and-reflect" moments
and ensuring we never miss a chance to recharge outdoors or get my steps done regardless of the Scottish weather! 🌧️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Evidence-based support for real-life change. 🧠✨
There is no shortage of mental health advice on social media, but when you are struggling with your mood, your health, or navigating a neurodivergent world, you deserve support that is rooted in clinical science.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is more than just a “talk therapy.” It is a structured, collaborative approach recommended by NICE guidelines for everything from Anxiety and Depression to Chronic Pain and ADHD management.
In my practice, I don’t just offer a listening ear—I provide you with a practical toolkit. We look at the “here and now” to understand the cycles of thoughts and behaviours that keep you stuck, and we work together to break them.
CBT is for you if:
✅ You want to understand the “why” behind your feelings.
✅ You are looking for practical strategies, not just vague advice.
✅ You want to build resilience that lasts long after therapy ends.
✅ You need a therapist who understands how to adapt tools for ADHD or Autism.
The ultimate goal of our work together? To help you become your own therapist.

Think Google's got all the answers? Think again! 🧠💻. As a BABCP-accredited therapist, I'm here to debunk the myths surrounding CBT - like endless worksheets or being told to just “be happy.” The truth is, CBT is about working with you to tackle anxiety, stress, burnout, emotional challenges and more. Which myth did you fall for? Let me know in the comments! 👇

Feeling overwhelmed by work?
You’re not alone.

Long hours, constant pressure, emotional exhaustion, and the sense that switching off is impossible are common signs of work-related stress and burnout.

Therapy can help you:
• Understand what’s driving the stress
• Set healthier boundaries at work
• Manage anxiety, low mood, and exhaustion
• Rebuild energy, confidence, and balance
• Learn practical tools to cope day-to-day

Support isn’t about “pushing through” — it’s about learning how to protect your wellbeing while navigating real-world demands.

If work is taking more than it’s giving, help is available.

📍 CBT therapy
💬 Confidential, supportive space
🌱 Focused on stress, burnout & balance

This makes me both happy and sad. I’m happy we’re approaching autumn, but at the same time I’m sad we’re leaving behind summer.

I love early nights, cosy clothes, and snuggling up — but I also love the lighter evenings, the longer days, and not being cold! (Raynaulds sufferer here 😭)

This is a good reminder that we can experience opposite emotions at the same time. Our feelings are rarely black and white, and it’s completely normal to hold mixed emotions.

In CBT, we often focus on noticing and accepting these emotions rather than judging them. When we allow space for all our feelings, it helps us respond in a kinder, more balanced way. 💛

Are you looking forward to the ‘ber months?
