Are Your Caring Responsibilities Taking Over Your Life?
I work with guilt-ridden professionals to help them to do the best for ageing parents so that they can enjoy life again.
Former GP with over thirty years in the NHS, including twenty as a GP. I bring clinical experience alongside coaching training and real-world work supporting families through ageing, illness, and difficult decisions.
Many of the people I work with are carrying guilt they rarely say out loud: about not doing enough, doing too much, or never feeling they get it right.
Many of the people I work with are capable, responsible, and used to coping.
They are supporting ageing parents alongside work, family, and everything else.
Is This You?
Are you overwhelmed trying to balance caring for a relative while managing your job and personal life?
Do you feel it is your duty to look after them and the only option is to continue doing everything for them?
Are you fed up with the lack of support from the NHS, Social Services, and local authorities, and just don’t know where else to go?
You are not alone. It is hard to strive for perfection in everything.
I offer structured, thoughtful support for people navigating the emotional reality of caring, ageing, and difficult decisions.
This includes:
- One-to-one support
- Facilitated family conversations
- Small group coaching
- Talks, webinars, and education
I also write articles and record short reflections for people who want something grounded and thoughtful to read or listen to in their own time.
If you are not ready to talk yet, the Resources page is a good place to start.
You do not have to be at breaking point to ask for support.

Some Self-Help Strategies
Avoid child to adult type of relationship instead aim for adult-to-adult conversations
No one likes being treated like a child, not you nor your parents. So avoid patronising.
Keep a journal and aim to write in it daily
There is scientific evidence that journaling benefits us. Write all your worries in it before bed or during the night but try to think about all the things you are grateful for that day. Gratitude journaling releases happy hormones that will aid sleep.
Talk to yourself or your pet
Talk about what is really bothering you. Scream or shout or cry or swear. It helps to let it out rather than keeping it in. Talking is therapeutic.
Take micro-breaks
Get a drink, step outside into the garden. Close your eyes and take a moment for you.
