Previously my perfectionism led me to feel like I wasn't good enough. I knew it was holding me back and making me feel anxious, and that was my sign that I needed to do something about it...
I'm proof that you don't have to overcome your perfectionism to be happy, but you do have to learn how to manage it!
I've been a CBT Therapist for 12 years and I've helped hundreds of clients learn how to manage the unhealthy parts of their perfectionism. There's nothing I love more than helping perfectionists get to the root of their perfectionism, so they can finally feel good enough and overcome anxiety.
What makes my approach unique and particularly effective for perfectionists is that I'm able to draw on my other trainings in Mindfulness, Mindful Self-Compassion, and Compassion Focused Therapy, to tailor the therapy so that it meets your individual needs.
I specialise in helping anxious perfectionists manage their perfectionism, so they can learn how to be a perfectionist without the baggage of anxiety.

I recently completed therapy with Natalie after suffering with anxiety, stress & perfectionism for years. Natalie is knowledgeable, empathetic and kind - I immediately felt at ease. I felt like I was making progress each week and she helped me achieve all my goals and more, I don't even remember the last time I was anxious! Working with her has completely changed my life and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
Natalie is so talented at what she does. I joined the course with little knowledge of the benefits of mindfulness and I'm pleased to say that I now know! As a business owner, I'm often consumed with work and anxiety, but thanks to this wonderful course I'm now more aware and better able to deal with these feelings. I'd recommend Natalie in a heart beat, she's so knowledgeable, calming and supportive.
Before therapy I was anxious most days to the point of feeling sick. I was very focused on work and my emotions were highly tied to work. My perfectionist behaviours were fuelling the situation. After therapy, I don't remember the last time I was anxious! My whole mindset has transformed. I feel so balanced across my life. I no longer have an unhealthy attachment to work and I'm able to recognise and handle my perfectionist behaviours to ensure they serve me and don't hinder me.
To truly put into words how this course has benefited me is impossible. Natalie’s delivery of this course has a unique balance of both professional and personable in expertly guiding you throughout. After finishing the course I now practice daily meditation and act more mindfully in my day to day life. I truly cannot thank Natalie and the benefits I have received from this course both throughout and after.
Natalie was incredible. She listened with compassion and understanding whilst always remaining professional. Her help has been invaluable. She is very friendly and approachable. Thank you Natalie for everything.
Natalie was professional, lovely, warm and encouraging, and I really felt she cared for us. She also modelled compassion well by being with our experience and making us feel valued. I loved each session, and I achieved all my goals and more. I think it's a course worth investing in for anyone who wants to get to know themselves better and increase self awareness and compassion.
