What brings people here
Where people often start
Can't stop worrying
When your mind keeps running, therapy helps you understand what drives the worry and find steadier ground.
Read about anxiety and stress ›Our approach
Most of us are quicker to criticise ourselves than to help ourselves, and that is where our work begins.
Compassion means noticing when you, or someone close to you, is struggling, and doing something about it.
We bring it into every session, through Compassion Focused Therapy and Internal Family Systems.

Our psychologist

I am a psychotherapist supporting clients who feel caught between insight and change: people who understand themselves well, yet still experience anxiety, emotional shutdown, relational repetition, or persistent internal pressure. My work is especially attuned to high-functioning adults who learned early to adapt, stay strong, or prioritize others while their own needs were set aside. These protective strategies often made sense at the time, but later can lead to disconnection, exhaustion, or feeling stuck.
Mind Renew provides booking, payment and a private client area. Your psychologist is an independent professional and provides your care.
Between sessions
Your private client area
Sessions, messages, mood check-ins, a private journal and resources from your psychologist, in one place.
Your journal is only yours. These tools support your reflection between sessions and sit alongside your therapy.
What people often ask
Before you start
You don't need a diagnosis or a crisis. If something has been weighing on you for a while, that is reason enough to talk to someone.
What we recommend
Books and tools to explore
Books, talks, podcasts and exercises to explore at your own pace, alongside therapy or before you start.
When you are ready
Start with a free initial consultation
Feeling that a part of you wants to talk to someone is enough to start. The first conversation is 25 minutes by video, at no cost.
