Hello, I’m Kim, a Therapist, Coach, Author & Leadership Mentor
Working across the U.K. I use my critically acclaimed 8Wise® method to help you live the 8Wise Way for a healthier happier life, mind, body and business.
Issues I Support With
Navigating real-life challenges with practical, realistic support
What I do
I am a Psychotherapist, Coach, Educator and Author passionate about supporting my clients through life, health and career transitions. Using my critically acclaimed 8Wise® method for develop optimal mental health and wellbeing, I support two core clients groups:
Executive Leaders and Business Owners to develop the mental capacity to manage stress, anxiety and burnout, overcome low confidence, limiting beliefs and imposter syndrome, increase resilience and psychological safety to improve performance, productivity and professional relationships.
Supporting Bariatric and GLP-1 patients to manage the psychological challenges of extreme weight loss and overcome feelings and behaviours linked to anxiety, shame, guilt, emotional and binge eating, addiction transference and body dysmorphia. Reducing the risks of stalls, relapse and weight regain, when using medically assisted weight loss treatments (Surgery, Mounjaro, Ozempic, Wegovy) to manage obesity.
We all face periods in life where things feel heavy, confusing, or emotionally overwhelming.
On this page, you’ll find some of the most common areas I support clients with, whether it’s stress, identity challenges, mental health struggles, life transitions, or simply feeling lost and disconnected. Whatever you’re going through, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
Together we’ll work in a gentle, structured, and supportive way to help you feel more grounded, more understood, and more in control of your wellbeing.
Stress & Burnout
Understand the emotional and physical causes of overwhelm, and learn practical ways to restore energy, calm, and balance, rather than just “pushing through.”
Anxiety & Depression
Gently work through the patterns of worry, emotional fatigue, and low mood, and build realistic tools that support emotional steadiness and self-compassion.
Self-Esteem & Confidence
Quiet the inner critic, rebuild self-worth, and reconnect with a grounded, authentic sense of who you are, not who you think you “should” be
Neurodivergent Support
Explore personalised strategies for focus, emotional regulation, sensory load, and executive function challenges — with empathy, lived understanding, and zero judgment — whether you are ADHD, Autistic, AuDHD, or exploring self-identification.
Managing Medically Assisted Weight Loss
(Bariatric & GLP-1)
Navigate the psychological, emotional, behavioural, and identity-related changes that arise during weight-loss treatment — including body image shifts, emotional eating patterns, social reactions, and lifestyle adjustment — with support from someone who truly understands this journey.
Change & Life Transitions
Change — even positive change — can feel destabilising. Together, we’ll navigate life, identity, or career transitions with more clarity, trust, and confidence.
Feeling Lost or Confused?
If life feels uncertain or overwhelming, you don’t need to figure it out alone. We’ll work together to reconnect with what matters, regain clarity, and rebuild confidence in yourself and your direction.
Leadership Support & Development
When you’re the one others rely on, the emotional load can be heavy. Develop clarity, confidence, and grounded leadership while protecting your own wellbeing.
Training & CPD
Support your team or organisation with compassionate, evidence-informed training and development that builds psychological safety, resilience, and emotional wellbeing.
If you see yourself in any of these areas or even if you're not sure what you’re dealing with, reach out. Support is available, and change is possible

Burnout is mental, emotional and physical exhaustion and is the outcome of prolonged dysfunctional stress. Many clients learn to break the mental patterns driving the cycle of burnout, so they can live with confidence, clarity, and joy. You can to.
