Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted by stress, burnout, or life’s demands? Struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, low self-esteem, ADHD, or the pressure of running a business? You're not alone, and you don’t have to navigate it all by yourself. I’m Kim, Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Coach, Author, and Founder of the 8Wise Method. With over 20 years of experience in personal development and mental health, I offer both online (Zoom) and in-person sessions from the heart of East Devon, close to Axminster, Bridport, Chard, Exeter, Honiton, Lyme Regis, Seaton, and Sidmouth.
I support adults with anxiety, low mood, ADHD, burnout, emotional eating, low self-esteem, work stress, midlife transitions, and relationship challenges. Using a combination of coaching and therapy, I help you regain clarity, confidence, and control for a healthier, happier mind, life and business.
Managing life’s challenges and demands, high-pressure decisions, mental lows, or self-doubt can be tough. But you don’t have to face it alone. So, if you are looking for flexible, convenient support in a safe space, reach out today and let’s take the first step towards optimal mental health and wellbeing together.
