My PhilosophyHow we pay attention shapes what we notice, what we understand and how we respond.
I'm Beth, a Chartered Coaching Psychologist, coach, supervisor and artist.
My work brings together psychological thinking, relational practice and creative inquiry, with a particular interest in how we pay attention to ourselves, one another and the world around us.
A curious mind.
I'm interested in what shapes our experience of work and life: how we think, feel and relate to one another, and how the environments we inhabit influence us.
My background in organisational and positive psychology gives me a way of exploring these questions, drawing on research and theory while remaining curious about the complexity of lived experience.
Creative practice.
I'm an artist as well as a psychologist, working across illustration, bookbinding, ceramics and printmaking.
My own creative work, particularly printmaking, has deepened my interest in how we make sense of experience through different forms of expression. I'm drawn to the unexpected connections that emerge when we make, experiment and approach familiar things differently.
Relationships & care.
I believe the quality of our relationships - especially our relationship with ourselves - shapes the quality of our work.
I'm interested in how we pay attention to ourselves and others, how we create the conditions for honest and thoughtful conversations, and how curiosity, care and compassionate challenge help us navigate complexity.
Life beyond work.
I'm based in Manchester, where I'm happiest making things, visiting exhibitions, discovering new artists, and finding opportunities to explore.
I love spending time with my partner, James, and our Devon Rex cats, Peanut & Pickle. There's a lot of life beyond work, and I think it's important to make room for it.
