Cardiac Psychology

The impact of a cardiac condition extends beyond the physical. The effects may be subtle and have a ripple effect on you and your relationships. Or the impact can be significant and impair various domains of your life. Not only is the person with the cardiac condition affected, but also those around them. Whether any of the following affect you, or someone you care about, it can be helpful to get support for your heart and mind.

  • Sudden cardiac event

  • Cardiac surgery or other cardiac treatments

  • Cardiac anxiety

  • Living with an ICD

  • Post-ICU delirium or trauma

  • Cardiac-related trauma including post-traumatic stress

  • Congenital cardiology

  • Cardiac inherited conditions

  • Needle, hospital or other medical phobias

  • Non-cardiac chest pain

Health Psychology

Health is not simply freedom from physical disease. Health involves a state of harmony between the body, mind and soul. Our physical, emotional, mental, social, financial, and spiritual wellbeing all matter. Whether you are after a wellbeing ‘warrant of fitness’, or seeking help with any of the following, I could help:

  • Optimising wellbeing

  • Stress

  • Anxiety

  • Specific Phobias

  • Sleep problems

  • Health or medical related trauma

  • Adjustment to a health condition or medical treatment

Professional Supervision

For professionals working in healthcare

Trust, safety, and a good quality relationship are key to effective supervision. I offer a strengths-based approach to professional supervision with a focus on promoting wellbeing and an ethically sound practice. My aim is to create a safe and collaborative space for self-reflection, restoration, and professional growth.

For therapy or professional supervision to be beneficial, it’s important to find the right-fit for you. For more information get in touch.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I offer a free 10 minute phone call to discuss whether your therapy needs are good match for my therapy approach. If I am not a good match for you, I can suggest other options.
