Counselling + wellness programme = well-balanced mind, body and life

It’s all about balance
At Sweet Mental Health, I will work with you to achieve complete balance – in your mind and your body. It’s the only real way to flourish.
Through my own daily journalling, physical and mental exercise (tennis does wonders for your brain and body!).
Eating healthy, home-cooked food and going on mindful walks, I’ve found this often-elusive balance. It’s not always easy and has taken a while to achieve. But it is possible.

You’re the expert, we’re your guide
Your experience of the world is unique. So during counselling sessions there are no right or wrong answers. Instead, our shared time and space is where you can be real and show the authentic you.
I will guide you to become who you really are building resilience on the way and leading to lasting change. It’s your path to explore.

Whoever you are, you’re welcome
You are you and no-one else. While I believe in the medical model of psychological problems, diagnosis is not ‘one size fits all.’ We’re all different and what suits you won’t be right for the next person.
At Sweet Mental Health I support inclusion and diversity, and encourage you to be physically, mentally and emotionally exactly who you are.


A kind and compassionate service
Are you frequently overwhelmed by your thoughts and feelings? Do you get fed up with the self-deprecation and loathing that often follows?
While you probably feel different every day, our counselling and wellness services will help you be kinder and more compassionate towards yourself. Helping you find balance on difficult days.
During counselling you’ll have time and space just to be. It’s a place where you can explore and learn who you really are and grow into the authentic you.
As you learn to connect with your inner self, exploring your life so far, experiences, thoughts and feelings, we’ll guide you through. And you’ll grow in self-awareness finding meaning in the things that have happened to you.
We all experience life differently. Perhaps you weren’t nurtured well as you grew up or you’ve endured a difficult relationship meaning your emotional, physical and mental needs were not met. Trauma and abuse may also have featured, and now life is hard.
You may feel uncomfortable (or it may not be appropriate) to share your reality with friends, family or colleagues, but that’s where counselling can help. At Sweet Mental Health, as well as providing you with a safe space to talk, we use a wealth of scientific information to support your emotional, mental and physical development.
We work with:
- fear, anxiety, depression
- relationships, marriage, sexuality
- family, parenting, personal concerns
- gender, race, judgement
- anger, shame, trauma
- abuse of all kinds (sexual, physical, emotional, financial)
- sense of self, body confidence, motivation
- self-loathing, self-blaming, self-esteem
- culture, society, environment
- sleep, weight loss, other mental health difficulties
Our wellness programmes
Current NHS guidelines support regular exercise to help mental health resilience, which I teach you to do from the safety of a private online space.
Our programmes combine hatha yoga, mindfulness, and personal training to help you be fitter and more active, and to nurture self-belief and courage. With time, you’ll find you can reach your daily goals and become more authentically you.
To date I have supported people with anxiety, depression, post-surgery rehab, injury prevention and fat loss, and can personalise the service to your specific needs.
Here’s what you can expect:
Hatha Yoga combines physical postures with breathing exercises and meditation for a gentle and calming experience. You’ll find it helps you unwind and release tension, easing muscular discomfort in your back and is a great support to your mental health. We’re certified and accredited with the Friends of Yoga Society RYS200.
Mindfulness is a type of meditation that helps you focus on what you’re sensing and feeling in the moment. It involves breathing methods, guided imagery and other practices that relax your body and mind helping to reduce stress. As an accredited Mindfulness Now service, we provide a gentle, kind and compassionate programme with regular tips and hints to help you manage your daily tasks. All you need is a safe and clutter-free space roughly an exercise mat in length so we can do exercise and movement together online.
Personal training with a corrective exercise specialist will help you move better during workouts and in everyday life. It reduces the stress put on your body so is ideal to help you maximise your health during rehab. We’ll get you moving daily away from structured spaces like gyms and teach you how to pay attention to your body. We’re certified with by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM).
Kindness, compassion and self-love are essential if you’re to find a happier, healthier, balanced life. Our wellness programmes will support your counselling journey towards Sweet Mental Health.
