My Background I worked in the corporate sector for 25 years, running my own recruitment business and deriving great satisfaction from the challenge of this industry. However, over time, I noticed how people can end up feeling trapped, overburdened by mental health issues that they didn’t feel they could communicate to others. I also struggled in my own way, which is what led me to learn as much as possible about personal development – a journey that began in 1993. Since then, I have always wanted to dedicate myself to educating those experiencing the same issues and supporting them manage their well-being more effectively.
Having worked in the corporate sphere for nearly 30 years, I understand that people encounter mental health challenges of all kinds, from depression to addiction to burnout. I also know that no individual is the same; one certain approach won’t be right for everyone - so the offering of an individual plan is key to your success.
To start with, we can have a brief free chat over the phone, which allows you to ask any questions and get a feel for the way I work, ahead of organising an initial assessment session at a time that suits you. During this first meeting, we will explore your thoughts and feelings as you experience them, as well as any past therapeutic experience.
