Between Sessions

Between Sessions is a space for curiosity, reflection, and clinical wanderings, where I share the ideas, questions, and insights that clients and everyday life inspire. It’s part blog, part thinking-out-loud space, where psychology meets real life and the messy, fascinating ways our minds work.

It’s also home to our ‘Ask a Therapist’ answers, a place where you can read anonymised questions from people just like you, and hear a therapist wade in with practical, thoughtful guidance. (You can submit your own question through the shop here)

Whether you’re here to explore mental health, find inspiration, or simply enjoy the perspective of a practising psychotherapist, Between Sessions is your invitation to pause, reflect, and wander with curiosity.
