FAQs

What does it mean to use therapeutic principles in business?

We apply insights from psychotherapy—such as active listening, empathy, relational awareness, and understanding unconscious dynamics—to help leaders and teams work more effectively together. Our approach focuses on improving communication, trust, emotional intelligence, and self-awareness within organisations.

Is this therapy?

Yes and no. We can offer 1-1 or group sessions that might feel like therapy, but will differ from traditional approaches to therapy in a number of ways. We use therapeutic frameworks and thinking to support personal growth, leadership development, and healthier workplace cultures. Think of it as applying the best of psychological insight to business challenges.

What kinds of businesses do you work with?

We work with many different organisations across various sectors, especially those who value people and purpose. Whether you’re a startup navigating team dynamics, a charity going through change, or a business looking to improve leadership or staff wellbeing, we can help.

Who is this for?

Our work is for ambitious businesses who - like us - want the experience of work to be empowering, growthful, and emotional and mentally healthy.

How is this different from traditional business consulting?

Traditional consulting often focuses on strategy, systems, or performance metrics. We go deeper - helping you understand the human factors that drive or block success. We look at unconscious dynamics, emotional undercurrents, and the ‘unsaid’ in teams, bringing what’s hidden into shared awareness.

What kinds of services do you offer?

We offer:

  • Dynamic group sessions

  • 1-to-1 personal exploration

  • Group sessions for teams/managers

  • Group sessions on culture

We can also tailor packages to meet the needs of your organisation.

What’s the evidence this works?

Our work draws from well-established fields like psychodynamic theory, person-centred practice, and systems thinking—all with decades of research and real-world application. We’ve seen how a deeper understanding of human behaviour improves team cohesion, reduces burnout, and leads to better decisions.

Will this feel too ‘touchy-feely’ for our business?

We understand that not everyone is comfortable with the language of feelings - and that’s okay. We meet clients where they are and work in a grounded, respectful, and professional way. Our goal is not to impose therapy but to help you understand what’s really going on beneath the surface of your workplace.

Can you work alongside our existing HR, coaching or leadership programmes?

Absolutely. We’re happy to complement other support structures and often work in collaboration with HR teams or external coaches. Our role is to deepen insight and add value - not to replace what’s already working.

Where do sessions take place?

We work both in-person and online. Some clients prefer workshops at their premises, while others opt for off-site sessions or 1-to-1 sessions online. We’re flexible depending on what’s most useful and comfortable for you.

What is the cost?

Given the unique nature of each client’s needs and the subsequent services we provide, costs are calculated on a project-by-project basis relative to time and expertise required.
