Welcome

My name is Gemma. I am a qualified Mental Health and Wellbeing Practitioner with an MSc in psychology and a post graduate certificate in CBT interventions for severe mental health illnesses.

After facing and overcoming my own battle with anorexia nervosa. I discovered a passion for therapy and training in psychology to help others to reach full recovery too. I have first-hand experience of how hard work and perseverance with evidence-based therapy techniques can lead to overcoming the most difficult of mental health struggles and going on to live a full life.

I am currently in training as a certified eating disorder recovery coach with The Carolyn Costin Institute. I work as a mental health wellbeing practitioner, a brand new NHS role in which I take a coaching role to support patients with severe mental health difficulties to work towards their goals and improve their quality of life.

I specialise in eating disorders, anxiety, improving self esteem and body image and I use evidence based techniques to guide you as you navigate your healing journey. I have received feedback that working with me has been inspiring and knowing that I have walked the same path before and recovered has been really helpful.

Client success stories
I attended Gemma's Soul Self Relationships workshop in July 2024. I learned so much about how to implement the knowledge I gained about my own attachment style, where I sit on the introvert/extrovert spectrum, and my love languages to enhance my life and my relationships (especially my relationship with myself). Gemma explained everything very clearly and really made sure that everyone in the group understood the concepts using visual tools and worksheets to illustrate everything very clearly. She gave us very thought-provoking journaling prompts which then really helped us to translate the theory we had learned into more personalised reflections. I now have much more self-knowledge that I am bringing into my day-to-day life. Thank you, Gemma!
