Programs & Specialist Services
Evidence-based programs, specialist offerings, and applied frameworks for people and systems under pressure.
Not all psychological work fits neatly into a single session or a single category.
Alongside individual therapy and workplace services, my work includes structured programs, specialist offerings, and applied frameworks designed for people carrying cumulative load — whether that pressure comes from work, responsibility, trauma exposure, leadership, or life more broadly.
Some of these offerings support individual recovery. Others are designed for referrers, organisations, or systems seeking more sustainable outcomes. All are grounded in neuroscience, psychological safety, and real-world application — not theory in isolation.
This page provides an overview of my specialist work and flagship programs, and helps you find the most relevant next step.
Flagship Programs & Frameworks
Recovery Circle™
Supporting recovery beyond the therapy room
Recovery doesn’t only happen in therapy sessions. It happens at home, in conversations with loved ones, and in everyday interactions at work. Even when treatment is progressing, recovery can slow when uncertainty, pressure, or mixed messages build around the injured worker.
Recovery Circle™ is a brief, structured recovery support that complements psychological treatment by helping the people around an injured worker understand what recovery actually needs — and how to support it without adding pressure.
It is:
• Non-clinical
• Psychoeducational
• Time-limited
• Delivered separately to key support people
It is not: therapy, case management, performance management, or a replacement for clinical treatment.
High-Functioning Burnout
When capable, driven people keep performing — at a cost
High-functioning burnout describes a pattern where individuals continue to meet expectations, lead, and deliver while operating in a state of chronic nervous system overload. It often goes unnoticed — by others and by the individual — until capacity and functioning begin to erode.
My work in this area focuses on recognising the early and hidden markers of burnout, understanding the neuroscience of sustained overdrive, and supporting recovery without requiring people to “stop everything” or collapse before help feels justified.
This work commonly supports professionals, leaders, and first responders who appear outwardly capable but are internally depleted.
Common presentations include:
• Persistent fatigue with maintained output
• Emotional flattening or irritability
• Cognitive overload and reduced recovery capacity
• Difficulty slowing down despite clear costs
3W of Human Performance™ (coming soon)
A practical framework for sustainable performance under pressure
The 3W of Human Performance™ is an applied framework that explains why performance erodes under sustained pressure — and what genuinely supports clarity, recovery, and sustainable functioning.
It looks beyond resilience and skills to examine how internal load, external demands, and system expectations interact. When these fall out of balance, performance is often maintained through over-functioning and personal cost, until capacity eventually gives way.
Grounded in neuroscience, performance psychology, and systems thinking, the 3W framework supports clearer conversations about capacity, decision-making, recovery, and risk in high-responsibility environments.
Specialist Populations
While I work broadly with adults navigating complexity, pressure, and transition, some populations experience unique cognitive, emotional, and systemic demands.
Specialist areas of focus include:
-
Emergency Services & First Responders
(including cumulative exposure, operational stress, identity shifts, and recovery following service) -
Professionals in High-Pressure Roles
(including leaders, executives, healthcare professionals, legal, corporate, and caring professions)
→ Telehealth for Professionals & High-Pressure Roles
These pages provide tailored information relevant to those contexts, including referral pathways and support options.
How These Services Are Delivered
Programs and specialist services may be delivered through:
-
Individual telehealth support
-
Small group programs
-
Workplace training and facilitated sessions
-
Advisory and psychosocial risk work
Delivery is tailored to context, need, and recovery stage, and may sit alongside or integrate with individual therapy or organisational services.
Not Sure Where You Fit?
If you’re unsure which service, program, or pathway is most appropriate, you’re not alone. Many people arrive carrying a mix of professional pressure, personal responsibility, and quiet fatigue.
