Time for you.

The fast-paced and intensive nature of film and television production can be exciting, fulfilling and unlike anything else. It can also take a toll on mental health, wellbeing, and relationships. You may find yourself wanting to explore issues that come up with an experienced therapist who understands the context of your work.

How therapy can help:

People come to therapy for lots of different reasons.

​

Curiosity: You may be curious about the patterns in your life or relationships, how they have come to be & want to explore new possibilities for the future

 

Difficulties: You might be struggling and would like things to be different. Sometimes the reason feels obvious and sometimes it's difficult to pinpoint. If you're living with mental health issues or facing challenges such as bereavement, addiction or trauma, therapy can help you understand the root causes and develop new ways of coping that build on your strengths

 

Wellbeing: You might simply be looking to maintain your mental wellness and would like some sessions to check in. Like a workout for your mind

 

Professional & Personal: If you are an actor preparing for a role or a crew member working with script material that feels triggering, it is important to look after yourself. We can work together to navigate challenging days on set & explore what is coming up for you, whilst accessing your resilience and strengthening your coping skills

​

Wellbeing on Set offers a confidential space where you can feel heard and understood. Therapy can be challenging, but we will work together at a pace where you feel safe and supported.

​

With both in-depth and brief therapy options available, you can choose the level of support best for you. 

Therapeutic services:

Individual Therapy

Offering accessible and flexible therapy, creating time for you to connect with yourself.

This might mean helping you identify and work with underlying patterns that could be contributing to your difficulties, improve your relationships, navigate life with a mental health diagnosis or proactively address trauma, stress and anxiety.

Couples Therapy

A safe and supportive space for you to connect, strengthen communication, and work through any tension or challenges in your relationship. 

Whether you are struggling with communication, intimacy, trust, or dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, or trauma, this is an opportunity to increase understanding and awareness of each other.

​

Family Therapy

Problems within a family or system are often the result of patterns of communication and behaviour that have developed over time. We will explore what is already going well and address the underlying patterns that might be contributing to a presenting concern. Family therapy involves working with you together to promote open communication, increase understanding, and develop new ways of interacting to create a stronger, healthier family dynamic. 

Family therapy can be beneficial for a range of problems, such as: communication difficulties, conflict & separation, behavioural issues, mental health diagnosis, bereavement, addiction and trauma.

How I work

I am trained in several evidenced based therapeutic approaches: Systemic Psychotherapy, Integrative Psychotherapy (incorporating Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, CBT & Mindfulness), Dialectical-Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and EMDR. How we work together is tailored to your needs and wishes, so you can receive the care and support that feels right for you. 

​

I believe that the therapeutic process is collaborative & that our therapeutic relationship is important. Together, we will work to address the challenges you are facing and support you to develop awareness, utilising your insight and internal resources to achieve your goals in therapy.

  • How do I choose a therapist?
    This is subjective so will vary depending on what you're looking for. Here are some things you may want to consider or already be thinking about: -It is important to find a therapist that you connect with and who feels right for you. Building a trusted therapeutic relationship is central to the therapeutic process. -Accreditation of the therapist and experience in the area you want to explore is also important. Therapists should be registered with an organisation like the UKCP or BACP and credentials should be readily available online. You can double check this by visiting the UKCP / BACP sites directly and searching the therapist's name. -Therapists should have current insurance, a DBS check & receive regular ongoing supervision. This is to support therapist safe working practices. Therapy is often an investment of time, money and energy, so please don't be afraid to ask questions during your search. Most therapists have a network & if they aren't the right fit for you, should offer to signpost or refer you to someone who can help. If you have any questions for me that aren't listed here, please use the contact form or send an email to info@wellbeingonset.com and I'll do my best to support. All enquiries are treated with discretion.

  • I don't have a fixed schedule - do you offer flexible appointments?
    Yes! I understand shifting schedules. There are flexible booking options & we don't have to agree a fixed time and day each week. Sessions can be weekly or fortnightly depending on your needs. Much of the therapeutic process takes place outside of the therapy room and it can be helpful to have a gap between sessions to allow time for this.
  • How much does therapy cost?
    Sessions last an hour and are: £100 for an individual £120 for a couple or family Please check out the therapeutic resources on the homepage for no and low cost therapy options
  • Are our sessions private? When would you break confidentiality?
    Therapy sessions are confidential & this forms part of the agreement we make at the start of our work together. Occasionally confidentiality has to be broken if there is a safeguarding concern (a risk to yourself or someone else). In this instance I would need to inform your GP and any other relevant services, but we would discuss this together. I am bound by the BACP & UKCP ethical codes in relation to confidentiality. I am open to working with NDA's.
  • I am in crisis - what do I do?
    Thank you for coming to this page. It's important to get the help you need Wellbeing on Set is not an emergency service & if you or someone else is at immediate risk of harm, it's important to seek urgent care by dialling 999 If you are in crisis, you can also contact the Samaritans (24/7) by dialling 116 123
  • How often should I/we attend therapy?
    Sessions can be weekly or fortnightly depending on your needs. Much of the therapeutic process takes place outside of the therapy room and it can be helpful to have a gap between sessions to allow time for this.
  • What happens in the first session?
    The first session is a chance for you to share what is going on for you and what you would like to work on in therapy. I will complete an initial assessment with you and make suggestions on how to proceed based on our discussions. It can feel nerve wracking coming to the first appointment, so we will work at a pace you feel comfortable with.
  • Where are you based?
    I am based in the UK and willing to travel. I am also available remotely worldwide depending on the service you require
  • What does the support you offer look like?
    This will vary depending on budget and your requirements. Please reach out to discuss how Wellbeing on Set can support your production
  • Why should I hire an on set therapist?
    Mental health and emotional wellbeing is equally important to physical health. Similarly to hiring an on-set medic, having a mental health professional available ensures the provision of preventative & responsive care. This is particularly important when filming sensitive content that might be triggering for people, and more generally when shoot days are challenging or stressful. Due to the nature of filming, people often don't have the time or energy to seek support from external sources, which can exacerbate an issue. The presence of an on-set therapist means that concerns can be attended to efficiently in a way that balances the demands of the filming process with the needs of cast and crew. Promoting wellbeing on set leads to happier crew and successfully completed projects. Some benefits of having a qualified mental health professional on set: 1. Improved Mental Health 2. Increased Resilience 3. Better Working Relationships 4. Increased Creativity 5. Improved Communication 6. Reduced Substance Abuse 7. Increased Career Satisfaction
