Providing counselling
and mental health support
to lawyers
A team of psychotherapists with a background in the legal profession
Supporting individual growth and enhancing professional life
We integrate our knowledge, skills and experience of law and psychotherapy to bring a unique approach to supporting mental health and well-being within the legal profession.
We understand there are times when you can thrive at work and feel at the top of your game. There may be other times when the stress and challenges can become difficult to manage, especially when the demands of the workplace are pitted against the demands from life outside work. This might lead to you feeling overwhelmed, and less able to cope.
We provide the support you need to:
- help you develop awareness and understanding of yourself and how you react to work and life challenges
- build new perspectives and strategies
- develop and enhance resilience
- increase your capacity to make choices and changes.
Valuable skills that are appreciated within the legal world are essential to effecting changes in habits and behaviours: the ability to analyse a problem succinctly; to understand different perspectives; and to challenge and reach a compromise.
We adapt these valuable skills to help develop a greater capacity for both self-reflection and reflection on relationships with others which is a key feature of strong mental health.

Organisations
We understand, in line with research, that the culture of law firms and the professional identity forged within them may lead legal professionals to experience higher levels of stress, anxiety, depression and burn out and lower levels of wellbeing compared with the general population. We recognise that this is not conducive to productivity, creativity, and successful relationships in the workplace.
We can help by:
- providing in depth psychological support for your people to help them maximise their ability to overcome their challenges and flourish in the workplace
- providing bespoke support and training to help you develop your wellbeing strategy and incorporate it into the culture of your organisation
