Common areas of work include performance anxiety, self-confidence, emotional control, pre-performance routines, attentional control, mindfulness training, leadership skills and imagery training.

I practice as a Mindfulness Based Cognitive psychological trainer. I have worked with many clients including, Olympic & Paralympic athletes, pro golfers, pro footballers, university sports, pro cycling, creatives, leaders & organisations. I train people in how to enhance their self-belief for: performance optimisation, emotional regulation, resilience & effective decision making. Pressure in performance environments is a certainty & how we perceive pressure determines our response. We can choose how to think about pressure and this depends on our level of self-belief, the essential ingredient when navigating demanding environments.

Hi, I’m Ilan! I’m a Clinical Psychologist and Director of The Oak Tree Practice. I want to tell you a bit more about myself, as I realise selecting a psychologist can be a tough task! I feel very privileged to be able to say I love what I do and always have, ever since I started volunteering for ChildLine in 2007. Following this, I’ve had experience working with a wide variety of clients including children, young people, adults, older adults, military personnel, individuals with learning disabilities, neurodevelopmental disorders and neurological conditions. I have also furthered my studies through the completion of undergraduate, masters and doctoral degrees. All this aside, one of the most important parts of my work is building relationships with those sitting opposite me. I have always believed that you can have all the training and knowledge in the world, but if the client doesn’t return, none of this can be put into action. Therefore, my first aim is always to provide a warm, compassionate and non-judgmental space where we can work on the clients’ difficulties together.

Do you ever spend time worrying about things you have said or done in a meeting? to a friend? to your boss? Do you ever get trapped in self-critical thinking - where after a mistake you constantly berate yourself? Do you ever wake up in the night or when your trying to do something important and you can't control negative thoughts? Are you going through a period of transition and feeling stressed, confused or lost? I've always been fascinated by the power of the brain - how it can work for us and against us. With over 7 years of experience, I've witnessed first-hand how our mindset can either lift us up or hold us back.

I work across various sectors within the world of elite sport, performing arts, & business (see Linkedin). I am a qualified counsellor, HCPC registered, & BPS chartered psychologist. I collaborate with my clients to holistically enhance general well-being whether they are performers or not. Together we work to reach desired goals & objectives; lower anxiety, increase confidence, manage negative perfectionism, return from injury, enhance motivation, hone resilience & cope with the expectations of life. I happily work with non, or sub-elite performers but specialise in the highly pressurised arenas of sport, performance and business.

I work with people who feel stuck and want to create more movement in their life. Movement is the capacity to change. We are most alive when we are moving forward. It’s from this place that we can adapt, feel better and live with more creativity and impact. As a psychotherapist I support you to create the movement you need and bring about change in you life. This can include the processing of a difficult life event such as a divorce, the death of a loved one or a traumatic experience.

You may be at a point in your life where you feel stuck, unable to clearly progress, and in need of honing your focus to move forward. You’re driven to make positive change and grow as an individual or in your discipline, but you’re not sure how to. I’m here as a personal trainer for your mind. I see athletes holistically where performance and achievement are just smaller aspects of a bigger, more important picture. Through my experience and training I know that if I help develop you as an individual, everything else follows.

We all experience negative thoughts, feelings and emotions in our lives. Whilst we may not be able to control everything that happens to us, we can learn to manage the way in which we respond. Learning to be psychologically flexible allows us to manage ourselves in the present moment, rather than letting our thoughts, feelings and emotions take us for a ride!

Hello my name is Josephine. I offer Relational - Traumatophilic - Psychotherapy online - I work with people facing a wide range of issues including but not limited to: anxiety, low mood & depression, disordered eating, OCD presentations, bereavement, loss, suicidality, identity-related issues (sexual, gender, race), relationship difficulties, shame, anger, childhood and other trauma (including relational/attachment trauma, C-PTSD, transgenerational trauma, sexual abuse, neglect, homelessness, torture/war/loss of home, loss of status/family, major life transitions, move from one country to another/culture to another)

I have trained in existential psychotherapy, and I apply this in my work with clients. The starting point is the experience of the client, to provide the opportunity for them to examine their understanding of life, and the problems and dilemmas they face; to reassess their goals and desires. It provides an opportunity to consider how their choices have been constrained, perhaps by the views and expectations of others, but also by constraints rooted in our society. Understanding can lead to questioning, and growth, possibly in new directions.

My approach to therapy is one of collaborative exploration, where together the challenges and feelings you might be experiencing can be safely and thoughtfully considered and understood.

Even though you are looking for a psychotherapist or coach who specialises in working with neurodivergent people, your identity may not be the central reason for seeking a therapist. You can arrive presenting with anything that is part of human experience or life. Yet, the importance of choosing a neurodivergent psychotherapist is that there will be understanding of any sensory and processing differences. This means that wrong assumptions about how you ‘should be’ aren’t made, you won't be misread, and, consequently, the work will have meaning and usefulness for you. Adult individuals and couples are welcome.
