We're not here to be perfect, we're here to be human.

Blending evolutionary biology and neuroscience with personal growth, emotional resilience and wellbeing

Welcome all the lovely messy humans!

We’re on a mission to empower people by making the science of being human understandable and relevant to everyone.

Appreciating the complexity of the human experience is the first step towards knowing ourselves and becoming free of our unconscious behaviours and reactions.

Our approach is grounded in evolutionary biology, neuroscience and holistic techniques that support self-awareness, emotional resilience, growth and healing.

We also provide training and talks for schools and organisations on topics including emotional regulation and the science of self-harm.

I am a Certified Resilience Coach and Havening Techniques® practitioner, dedicated to supporting people to transform how they experience themselves and the world.

What we might focus on…

Neuroscience-based Resilience Coaching and Havening Techniques®

I combine resilience coaching with neuroscience-based techniques to create a deep sense of safety from which clients can regulate their nervous system, uncover unconscious fears and beliefs, heal from trauma and fast-track positive change in their lives. Havening Techniques® is a revolutionary emerging therapy for healing and transformation. If you seek an alternative to traditional talk therapy, you might want to consider this approach.

Rethinking emotional regulation, self-harm and resilience

The huge rise in teenage self-harm speaks volumes about the challenges young people face. I share a uniquely science-based understanding of why people self-harm and how it works with the nervous system, backed up by professional insight and lived experience. This information is designed to support open conversations that eliminate fear and shame, support healing and create opportunities for building long-term resilience.

Upcoming events

  • Rethinking self-harm - an introduction to the neuroscience of self-harm for professionals

    A monthly webinar for educators and professionals to provide a science-based perspective on why people self-harm and how to start the conversation. Delivered on Zoom in collaboration with Rose Rowkins, founder of Start the Conversation.

    We understand that discovering someone you care about is self-harming is scary and distressing, but being calm and nonjudgemental is one of the best things you can do. This small-group conversation is an opportunity to learn from lived experience so that you can provide the safety and support that is needed.

    Youth Charity, Wakefield

  • "Beth is incredible at what she does. Within minutes of talking to her she knows what to invite you to explore. Every time I have felt safe, heard, held and loved, and have been able to experience emotions I never knew were there."

    Vicki - coaching client

  • “Keep doing what you're doing. This has been really inspiring and has broken down the stigma of self-harm. It will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the way I work with clients.”

    NHS Mental Health Professional

  • "After a traumatic burn incident I worked with Beth to help me re-process the memory of it using Havening Techniques. In one session Beth was able to help me vastly reduce the mental trauma, which was amazing. I highly recommend Beth and trying this style of therapy for anyone struggling to process traumatic experiences or memories."
