Further Specialist Support

I am deeply passionate about our natural world and recognize the benefits of nature's connection with our well-being and mental health. I also recognize the importance of non-human animals who we share our planet with. Therefore, I am passionate about animal rights as part of that.

My experience as a vegan, as activist and therapist, has helped me to further understand the impact on others, when they too become more and more aware of how non-human animals are exploited. This can feel very distressing and it can feel both isolating and frustrating, trying to navigate a world where values are often not aligned with actions. I can support you with making sense of what you are feeling, as there will often be a range of strong emotions, such as grief, sadness, horror, guilt, shame, helplessness and anger.

We may adopt different ways of coping with our responses and emotions. This may include taking action to advocate and educate others, but we may also find that we withdraw from friends and family too and may experience difficulties within our interpersonal relationships. We may also want to get more involved in Animal Rights causes too, this might be advocating for Wildlife or Sabbing.

What is important to acknowledge, is that we also have to nurture and take care of our own well-being to reduce burnout, so we can continue to be a voice for animals.
