Practical Support for Meaningful Change
Pull back from the edge of an existential crisis by confronting perfectionism with a trauma-informed approach.
Rediscover balance from burnout
Serving clients in the UK, Europe and North America
It's been too much. Overwhelmed by the pressures of daily life. Stuck in a rut. Uncertain about the future. A relentless cycle of productivity, a to-do list that never ends. Constantly striving to do more, yet never feeling enough. Navigating the demands of modern life, burnout can suck you into a vortex that affects your entire being: physically, emotionally, relationally and spiritually. Healing from burnout requires more than just rest, it requires a holistic approach to find balance, purpose and fulfillment.
Recover from Burnout with Holistic Counselling
Holistic Counselling Support
The root of people-pleasing isn’t kindness—it’s the fear that who you are isn’t enough. Creativity calls you back to yourself, not as a performer but as a creator, free from the weight of approval. Giving yourself permission to be fully, unapologetically you is an act of rebellion in a world that rewards conformity. Authenticity isn’t about being liked; it’s about being real. When you create—without justification, without seeking permission—you reclaim your voice. Creativity isn't about aesthetic or art, it's about crafting a life you love, one you don’t have to escape from. You step out of expectation and into truth. And in that space, you remember: you were never meant to fit in. You were meant to be free.
Grow into the life you deserve
Expert Guidance for Intentional Living
Living authentically begins with aligning your decisions with your values—and for that, you first need to know what those values are. Your values are personal to you, and they might be different from your parents’, your friends’, or even mine. It’s not about conforming to others’ expectations; it’s about knowing what truly matters to you. When we live in alignment with our values, we make decisions that honour our inner truth, one choice at a time.
Boundaries are key in this process, as they create the space necessary for inner peace. They allow you to honour your needs, protect your energy, and stay connected to what’s truly important. By setting clear boundaries, you stop being overwhelmed by external pressures and start living with intention—choosing what serves your well-being and values. When we do this, we stop living for others and begin to create a life we don’t need to escape from.
Change starts when we know ourselves deeply and make choices that reflect who we are, not who we think we should be. Through my integrative counseling approach, you’ll learn to set those essential boundaries, embrace self-care, and cultivate a life that aligns with your authentic self. With 8 years of experience in depth psychotherapy, I combine evidence-based practices with intuitive inquiry, specializing in trauma-informed and spiritually integrative approaches through a Jungian Existential lens. In virtual sessions, we’ll work together to unravel the complexities of your identity and create a balanced life that reflects your true self.

Former Client
“I am so so grateful for our session. I can't stop thinking about how powerful it was. Paying attention to how my body feels is so insightful and interesting to reflect on. I'm making choices that I want to make and not feeling shame after!”
Former Client
“I've been reflecting on why the Spiral Self Method works for me. Things move through me. We talk, we identify, we make connections and they leave my body. In identifying it, I depersonalize it. In processing, I let it move through. In being heard, it leaves my body. ”
Former Client
“Bethany's energetic presence and personal reflection allows her to be compassionately present and authentic with clients. She has an innate ability to "just be with" and "hold space" for people like me who may not have clear direction. ”
Former Client

Imagine waking up
each day excited to live a life that celebrates your creativity and uniqueness,
free from the ghosts of who you used to be. You start your morning slowly,
savoring a cup of coffee as the first light of dawn filters through your
window. You feel the comforting warmth of the cup in your hands, taking a
moment to appreciate the quiet of the early hours. As you look ahead to your
day, you’re filled with the freedom to choose activities that truly bring you
joy.
An authentic life prioritizes your well-being and allows you to romanticize the mundane.

Each moment, no matter how ordinary, is filled with a sense of purpose and fulfillment.
