Why engage a Corporate Therapist
Capitalising on the psychological capital of their team is what the successful organisations out there are doing.
Research by PwC found that good Psychological Safety helps encourage flexible thinking and intrapreneurship among workforces.
The research also shows that positively-wired brains can boost productivity by up to 31% and are three times more creative than negatively wired brains.
A framework developed by the National Workforce Skills Development Unit identifies Psychological Safety as one of five interconnected pillars for creating a healthy, thriving, forward thinking and productive workplace.
Poor psychological safety can have huge cost implications to the bottom line.
Research proves that a focus on well-being isn’t a soft skill - It’s a core business skill needed to sustain high performance in and outside of work.
It helps sustain and maximise energy, so employees are at their personal and professional best self. By prioritising well-being was shown to improve collective ability to thrive in a fast paced environment.
Life outside of the office is also likely to include personal challenges, adverse events, and periods of reduced mental health and wellbeing.
Each individual’s life circumstances will impact them at work - and will likely have ripple effects across teams and departments.
A corporate therapist works with individuals to reach a state of optimal wellbeing where they can better access their full potential in all spheres of life - including the workplace.
Engaging a therapist is the mark of an emotionally-intelligent and principle-led organisation.
It is becoming increasingly common in organisations that are committed to reducing the stigma around mental health, and where leadership acknowledge that they have a responsibility to the people they employ.
Your employees’ psychological welfare can have a detrimental effect on your business so the benefit is to both the individual and the business as a whole.
Never has it been more important to support the mental and health of your employees. With remote working now being commonplace it is imperative that mental wellbeing is taken seriously and made a priority.
Corporate therapy - Cut the cost of employee illness and absenteeism
Absenteeism and low mood in the workplace do not show up on your business’s balance sheet, but mental health is a huge hidden cost.
For individuals and organisations to grow and prosper, these underlying problems must be addressed.
Staff are sometimes reluctant to confide in their employer, even when their employer is very supportive.
And, even if they do seek help from management, mental wellbeing is a complex and delicate area that they are not necessarily equipped to deal with.
Preventing mental health issues leading to stress and a demotivated workforce requires specialist confidential psychotherapy.
Leadership Teams
Many high-achieving and high-profile people already employ coaches and personal trainers to support their life and work goals.
Sarah works with unique combination of neuropsychology and neuroplasticity that achieves peak brain performance.
This happens by creating new neural pathways that allow her client to respond differently to any given situation, in particular high pressure environments.
This regulates their emotions, which in turn optimises brain function to operate more effectively.
Sarah works closely with each client to ensure she understands their objectives and priorities.
Whether the desired outcome is to build confidence, remove ‘Imposter Syndrome’, create more self-belief, dissolve anxiety or anger, or just an improve overall sense of clarity and calm.
At every point the results can be felt instantly. Tangible differences are immediately obvious for the client and continue to show through into daily lives.
Previous clients testify to the impact not only on their performance, but also on the bottom line.
The Process
A corporate therapy session is similar to a private session.
Sarah partners with organisations on a temporary or on-going basis, working in-house at a frequency that suits the need.

An in-house therapist/ performance coach is there to keep the brilliant and ambitious individuals functioning at peak power.
There is a science to elite performance and this gives you a truly competitive advantage.

Talented people can only do their best when they feel their best.
In the last twelve months we heard the word resilience being banded around more than ever before - but what does it actually mean?
When you have a resilient mindset you’re able to cope with challenges, adapt to change and perform at your peak.
You’ll have your Resilience Edge - so you will feel confident and positive no matter what situation you find yourself in. You’ll have the ability to view situations from different perspectives, and choose how you react to difficult situations in order to achieve the best outcome for you. You’ll feel in control, like a master of your own destiny and you’ll build a structure around you that helps you to flourish. Resilience is the ability to thrive in life, even in challenging times.
Your people are always the most important investment within your organisation, and if you help them understand what it takes to navigate challenges successfully, build resilience in the face of adversity to create an environment where it’s possible for each individual to thrive and perform at their peak, in their own unique way - you will create a bigger return.
