Helping people think well, work well and live well

I’m Andrea, a psychologist with over 25 years’ experience supporting people and business with mental health and neurodiversity through coaching, training and speaking. I’m passionate about empowering people and businesses to reach their full potential. In my career, I have worked in education, the NHS, and charities, where I have coached, delivered training and awareness to people and business. I blend psychological theory and therapeutic principles with practical strategies to help people understand themselves, regulate emotions, build lasting resilience and healthier workplaces. Outside of work, I enjoy challenging both my physical and mental limits, having completed several endurance events, including Ironman triathlon, ultra-marathons, the Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon and trekking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. I’m proud to be part of the Cheshire Woman Award committee, celebrating and raising the profile of outstanding women in Cheshire while supporting local charities.

This Friday I’m wearing my .nw hat and delivering a presentation .uk on how to manage a busy head.

You know that `Silly o’clock` conversation you have with yourself in the middle of the night?

Replaying things you said.

Thinking about things you need to do.

Trying to solve problems that definitely don’t need solving at 3am.

I’ll be talking about why our brains do this and, more importantly, what we can do to manage it.

If you can’t come along, drop me a message and we can talk it through together.

Over 100 women in one room at the West Cheshire and North Wales Chamber of Commerce Women in Business networking event yesterday.

It was lovely to catch up with familiar faces, meet new people, and finally meet in person some of those I had previously only connected with online.

A special thank you to Kathy Jones for such an honest and raw presentation about herself. By speaking so openly, she will no doubt have helped leave the door open for others to speak up too.

When were on holiday, one of the highlights is often Happy Hour.

A set time.

A discounted drink.

An hour where everyone gives themselves permission to relax and enjoy themselves.

But why do we limit happiness to just one hour?

What if happiness wasn't something you squeezed into your diary between 5pm and 6pm?

Of course, we can’t be happy every hour of every day. Life doesn’t work like that.
Happiness doesn’t have to be saved for holidays, weekends or one designated hour.

I help people create a life where happiness isn't reserved for holidays, weekends, or a drink after work, but something they experience more often because they have the practical tools to navigate life's ups and downs.

Don't settle for just a Happy Hour!

Motivation is rarely as simple as wanting something enough.

What looks like a “lack of motivation” may actually be anxiety, low confidence, executive-function difficulties, previous negative experiences or an inaccessible workplace.

Instead of asking, “Why aren’t they motivated?” perhaps we should ask,

“What is making the next step difficult; and what support or adjustment would make it feel possible?”

In my work, I help young people explore what may be getting in the way; without judgement or labels. We then turn that understanding into practical strategies, greater confidence and manageable next steps.

Sometimes people do not need more pressure; they need the right support.

Have you heard about WomanifestUK's Ignite? Its a full day of inspiration and ideas to support your wellbeing.

As part of Healthy Minds Matter I'm going to be talking about why we overthink because noticing and understanding is the first step towards changing things.

A-level Results Day

Today might feel like a very big deal.

For young people; excitement, relief, disappointment or uncertainty.

For parents; pride, worry, excitement and perhaps not knowing quite what to say.

Whatever the results bring; Take a breath.

Young person; your results don't define you.

Parent; your child's results don't define them either.

Celebrate the good news, acknowledge the disappointment and remember;
you don't have to work everything out today.

Sometimes the most important thing you can say is:

"Whatever happens, we'll work it out together"
