Support for Worry and Overthinking
If you find yourself stuck in your head, replaying conversations, anticipating worst-case scenarios, or trying to think your way out of how you feel, you’re not alone.
Overthinking often develops as a coping strategy: a way to manage uncertainty, avoid emotional discomfort, or try to stay in control when things feel too much.
But chronic worry and looping thoughts come at a cost. They can leave you feeling exhausted, disconnected, or on edge, and can create tension in both your body and your relationships. The more time spent in your head, the harder it can be to tune in to what’s happening in the present moment.
In therapy, we begin by gently exploring the thinking patterns you’ve developed without judgment. Often, overthinking arises from an underlying belief that emotions aren’t safe or manageable. When feelings start to surface, the mind rushes in to strategise, analyse, or distract. This habit can become so familiar that it feels automatic. But it’s possible to interrupt this cycle, and learn new ways of being with your experience.
Rather than trying to stop the thoughts altogether, we begin by slowing things down
We bring awareness to what’s happening in your body alongside your thoughts. As you shift your attention from the mental loops to your felt experience, you start to feel more grounded, and less pulled along by anxious thinking. You begin to recognise the loop for what it is, and slowly, space opens up.
Therapy with me is holistic, and about coming into deeper relationship with yourself
This is where we get curious. Together, we explore new perspectives, fresh ways of thinking, and different ways of sensing and expressing what’s going on inside. In the safety of the therapeutic relationship, these small shifts can begin to translate into lasting change. When your body and mind are working together, not at odds, there’s more space for insight, clarity, and calm.
This work is holistic. It’s not about quick fixes or just changing your thoughts, it’s about coming into deeper relationship with yourself. And from there, you can begin to meet life with more ease, presence, and trust in your own inner resources.
