◎ ABOUT STEPHANIEHello, I’m Stephanie
I've always been interested in how people make sense of themselves - the tension between who we are and who we feel we have to be, the patterns that keep repeating, the things we've learned to manage quietly rather than look at directly.
That's what brought me to this work. It's also what keeps me here.
Most of us spend a lot of time in our heads. Thinking, anticipating, managing. Therapy can offer a rare chance to slow that down - and notice what else is there

◎ BEFORE THE THERAPY ROOMA different kind
of background
Before training as a therapist, I worked in training and development — mental health, corporate wellbeing, management — mostly with clients in media and creative industries.
I understand what those environments ask of people, what burnout actually looks like from the inside, and how difficult it can be to ask for support when you're used to being the one who keeps things moving.
So when people talk about work pressure, identity, ambition, or exhaustion, I'm not working from theory.
Work, identity, relationships, ambition, exhaustion. These don't stay at the door. Good therapy has to account for the life someone is actually living - not just what they bring into the room.
I have worked across NHS services, low-cost therapy, private practice, and workplace wellbeing settings — with individuals, and with organisations looking to support their teams.
The relationship
is the work
Research consistently shows that the relationship between client and therapist is the most significant factor in whether therapy works. I take that seriously.
It means I care about building something genuine - not just being a professional presence in a room. The relationship we build together often tells us something important about the relationships outside it.

C.N - THERAPY CLIENTThe kind of therapy that doesn’t just stay in the room
◎ READY TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP?A lot of people arrive in therapy carrying a version of themselves they've been managing carefully for years. Something in that has stopped working - or it's just getting heavier.
That's usually enough of a reason to start.
