Sometimes you just need someone to say: “It’s OK’.

I work extensively with students, especially those from top UK universities - who are navigating the intense pressure of academic life, family expectations, romantic relationships and financial stress.

Some are also launching startups or managing part-time jobs alongside their studies.

It’s a lot. And it’s okay if it feels overwhelming.

Now is the time to invest in your inner world.

In therapy, you can:

• Spot and unpack the “baggage” you might be carrying from your parents or past so it doesn’t get dumped into your relationships or future kids

• Learn how to actually manage emotions instead of bottling them up or blowing up

• Get better at bouncing back when life hits you sideways

• Work out who you really are and what you actually want (not just what’s expected)

• Learn the meaning of words like narcissism or gaslighting, so you can spot red flags and explain them without sounding like a TikTok reel

• Get better at communicating — with friends, family, partners and even yourself

• Feel more in control of your life, more confident, and less like you’re just winging it
