I am SO looking forward to my first *actual in person* workshop in what seems like an age, tomorrow!

There's something very special about really being in the room with your participants.

And every time I do something like this, it blows my mind to think back to that girl whose knees would already have been knocking... or, let's be honest, wouldn't have even considered doing something like this in the first place.

It's been a pleasure to work with to bring this to fruition, and I can't wait to deliver!

In or and needing a confidence boost on camera? It's not too late to book - I'll pop the link below.

"I'm no good in front of a camera, I feel so awkward"
"I need to lose weight / sort my teeth out / look perfect first"
"I look stupid not knowing what to do, and I always hate the photos"

These are some really common thoughts that come up for SO many professional women (and men!), when it comes to getting in front of the lens 📸

Being in the spotlight and 'on show' can trigger all the insecurities...
.. but it's something we can't avoid or put off forever!

Want to feel more confident in time for the festive season and 2026?

Join us at - and we'll teach you how to make the whole thing feel easy, relaxing... and even fun!

Just £89 including a professional headshot from - and our new book, 21 Days to a Better Brain.

Can't wait to do this with you!

Well that wasn't such a bad afternoon out!

Some fabulous speakers - time to rest, digest and reflect.

Lovely to bump into there too!

I spent this morning mostly making people cry...

And then helping them feel a whole lot better about their issues with procrastination, motivation and time management.

This is why I LOVE running workshops - the impact you can have on somebody's whole way of doing things in just an hour or three, is phenomenal 🥰

Obviously sometimes the deeper work is needed, too - that's where therapy and Mind PT come in...
.. but when people stop beating themselves up for procrastinating and "being a terrible human", and finally start taking some positive steps in the right direction?

That feels like a good morning's work to me.

Thank you Society of Garden + Landscape Designers for having me back again!

Such a pleasure.

I am SOOO looking forward to running this half day workshop with the lovely !

Having gone from camera-dodging shy girl to confident in front of the lens myself, I know EXACTLY how it feels to be wracked with insecurity and doubts about whether you're doing it right, looking ok etc.

Can't wait to support a small, intimate group of women to find their own confidence and calm showing up - on film AND in life 📸.

Sometimes, people's kind and generous hearts just blow you away.

Saturday was one of those times!

Thank you SO much to the amazing duo that are Millicent Photos and Steve Harris for your time, skills and generosity - we had an amazing time at beautiful Harbourside, grinning like our lives depended on it and giving up on ever getting our hair to behave with that wind! 😅

But somehow you made it all workin spite of the Brizzle breeze - what terrific photos, and what an incredibly talented pair you are.

Can't recommend them highly enough!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts from and I 💛

At The Better Brain Company, we believe in…

✅ Support that moves you forward - not round in circles
✅ Tools that free you from overthinking, and help you uncover your own solutions
✅ Mental health and wellbeing support that feels as normal, positive and proactive as a trip to the gym

We're big believers that therapy and 🧠 empowerment should be:

✅ Judgement-free, stigma-free and safe
✅ Free from pressure or cookie-cutter solutions
✅ And even - dare we say it - fun!

You don’t need to be ‘broken’ to benefit.
And you don’t need to be at rock bottom to qualify.

✅ Sometimes you just need a leg up
✅ Sometimes it’s about a bit of mind maintenance
✅ Sometimes, you need more

And that’s okay.

Wherever you're at, we aim to make it:

✅ Simple
✅ Effective
✅ Supportive for as long as you need
✅ All about getting you to a better place - as fast as feels good for you

Change doesn’t have to be heavy.
It doesn’t have to be hard or harrowing.
And once it ends... it should keep on giving.

Above all, it should bring you back to you.

Morning!

There we were, just sitting with our coffee, our pastry 🥐and a couple of strawberries 🍓 (for balance) this morning...
.. and asking the questions some people would really rather we didn't ask.

But... well, feeling like we can't not.

Latest blog here - and it's an honest one.

There's a crisis going on in corporate wellbeing. Poor mental health is still costing UK employers up to £102 billion a year! Yet we're offering more wellbeing resources than ever. What are we getting wrong? Let's find out.

And THIS is why we love it: Why Eye Movements Work When Talking Doesn't.

"One of the most striking things about IEMT is how quickly it can produce change. While traditional therapy often measures progress in months or years, IEMT can create significant shifts in just a few sessions, often even in one.

This isn’t because it’s a “quick fix”, it’s because it works at the level where the emotional problem actually lives.

When your emotional system finally gets the message that an old threat is no longer relevant, the shift can feel immediate and profound. Clients often describe it as a weight being lifted or tension switching off. The memory doesn’t disappear; it just loses its emotional charge and becomes something the brain can finally file away.

The most exciting developments in trauma treatment show us that we don’t have to choose between approaches. We can integrate them.

IEMT excels at clearing emotional blocks and calming the nervous system, creating space for the insight and self-reflection that traditional therapy offers to take root and flourish.

When your feeling brain isn’t constantly hijacking you into survival mode, you can explore your patterns with curiosity instead of fear. You’re not working against your system anymore; you’re working with it.

Rather than trying to override your emotional system with logic or willpower, we’re learning how to work with your brain’s built-in mechanisms for healing and integration.

If you’ve been feeling stuck despite your best efforts in therapy, please know that it doesn’t mean you’re broken. It might just mean that your emotional system needs a different kind of attention. One that speaks the language of safety and emotion.

Your brain already knows how to heal. Sometimes it just needs the right conditions and the right kind of support".

IEMT vs Traditional Therapy: Why Eye Movements Work When Talking Doesn’t If you’ve ever sat in a therapy session feeling frustrated because you know exactly what your problems are but still can’t seem to resolve them, you’re not alone. Maybe you’ve spent months or even years discussing you...

Is your GP the best option for your mental health?
Not necessarily.

Now, hear us out…

Most GPs are doing their absolute best - but even they’ll tell you: they aren't mental health experts by any stretch of the imagination. And they're working within a system that's overstretched, underfunded, and not set up to give people the deep, person-centred, uniquely tailored support they often really need.

We've spoken to countless GPs who wish they could refer patients for things like EMDR and hypnotherapy… which they know would really make a difference.

But they can’t.
They aren't available.
Unless you go private.

So what happens instead?

A short course of CBT (which may help around 50% of people, to varying degrees).
A prescription for antidepressants.
A waiting list.
Or sometimes, nothing.

Often the only available option is a one-shot deal - and if it doesn't work for you - you're on your own.

This isn’t about blaming doctors or putting you off seeking help.

It's about realising that if you’re struggling, and haven’t found the support you need through your GP - it ISN'T because you’re beyond help.

It’s because you might just need a different approach, that they aren't able to give.

And that's what we're here to highlight.

At The Better Brain Company, we offer an evidence-based, solution-focused way forward - grounded in neuroscience, trauma-informed methods, and proven tools that work fast, safely and deeply.

We're not the only ones, and what we offer isn't a panacea - but we DO want to help you navigate to the right solution for you.

You don’t need to keep “just coping.”

And you don’t have to do it alone, or have all the answers yourself. We're here to help you find them.

DOUBLE the entire NHS budget.

Comparable to having a pandemic EVERY YEAR.

After reading some of the stats Caroline's unearthed for us, I'm reeling. I literally cannot BELIEVE these stats... I mean, I see this every day and I still can't believe it.

It's costing lives, relationships, jobs, businesses - not to mention the knock-on, circular impact on physical health - more GP appointments, more prescriptions, more burnt out healthcare professionals...

WHY are we not investing in mental health solutions like our economy depends on it?!

It defies logic. No?

If I could grant you one wish for your therapy or coaching practice right now, what would that be?
