VIP day.

A day to untangle it. No clock about to run out.

For people ready to do
the work, in one focused stretch.

A full day to focus and put full intention into you, where you’re at, and where you want to go. It can be about whatever you need it to be about: a life transition, a pattern you keep repeating, a decision you’re sitting with, or simply a protected space to consider and reflect.

You don’t want a recurring weekly slot. You want to deal with something properly, and then get on with your life.

You’re high-functioning on the outside. Underneath, there’s a pattern, anxiety, a relationship, a chapter of your past, that keeps showing up and you’re done with it.

You’ve had therapy before and you noticed that just as the session got interesting, it ended. You want the room to actually land it.

You want clinical work, not soul-led work. Twenty years of practice, evidence-based, drawn from CBT, EMDR, imagery, somatic and mindful movement, all held by one practitioner.

One day, held inside the three
phases I work with every client.

We arrive, settle, and move through the same clinical arc I use in weekly therapy, just without the weeks between. Space to breathe, walk the grounds, eat properly, and finish with a plan you can actually use.
01
Settling
Settling the nervous system. Understanding your patterns. Formulation, making what's not yet known to you, known. We don't go anywhere difficult until the ground is steady.
02
Treatment & healing
The updating work. Depending on what you bring, this draws from CBT, EMDR, imagery, somatic work or mindful movement. The point isn't to relive it, it's to update it so it stops running the show.
03
Reclaiming your life
Who are you now, in relation to all of this? We rebuild the story, values, identity, the next chapter, and you leave with a personalised toolbox and a plan for the weeks after.

The hour ends just as things start to go deeper.


Fifty minutes is enough for steady, weekly work. It is rarely enough for the moment a client gets to the edge of something they have been circling for years, and then has to pack it back up and drive home.

A day gives the work room. We can sit with what comes up. We can stabilise, do the actual updating, and have time at the end to properly land it, to walk, to eat, to talk about what you’re taking home with you.

It is the same clinical work, done well, in the time it actually needs.
Wondering if a day is right for you? Get in touch.

A clear understanding. A useable
toolbox. A different next chapter.

Your formulation, in your own words

A clear map of how this pattern was built, what's been keeping it going, and what your nervous system has been trying to do for you.

A personalised toolbox

Drawn from CBT, EMDR, imagery, somatic and mindful movement work, specific to you, not generic homework.

An updated story

The version of events you've been carrying, gently updated so it stops shaping decisions you make today.

A plan for the weeks after

What to practise, what to notice, and when to come back for a top-up if you want one. A therapist in your pocket, not a wait for the next slot.

A private setting in the
English countryside.

Away from the noise of daily life. A quiet, comfortable space with grounds to walk in between phases of the work, and a proper lunch in the middle of the day. The location is shared on confirmation. The day is private, just the two of us.

About me, briefly: twenty years as a psychotherapist and coach, BABCP accredited, trained at Goldsmiths and the Institute of Psychiatry, with experience across the NHS, the Priory and private practice.

What people ask before booking.

Is this therapy, or is it coaching?

It’s clinical psychotherapeutic work, done in a longer format. If we identify, on the call beforehand, that you need a longer-term therapy relationship, I’ll say so. A VIP day isn’t the right fit for everyone.

Will I have to relive the worst of it?

No. One of the biggest misconceptions about trauma work is that you have to relive it to heal it. You don’t. We use evidence-based techniques to update what’s stored, without re-traumatising you in the process.

Can I bring my partner?

VIP days are one-to-one. If you’d like to work as a couple, that’s a separate offer. Please mention it in your enquiry and I’ll point you to the right thing.

What support is there afterwards?

You leave with a written plan and toolbox. Many clients book a follow-up top-up session a few weeks later; that’s optional, not a sales funnel.

Is it confidential?

Completely. Same clinical confidentiality as any therapy session, held to BABCP standards.

Ready to spend a day on it?

VIP days are by application. Tell me a little about what you’d like to work on and I’ll be in touch personally to see if a day is the right fit.
