helping charity leaders prevent burnout and build resilient Teams

Hi I’m Alex

I help overwhelmed charity CEO’s lead without burning out, so they can thrive not just survive.

Work with me

Working in the charity sector can be one of the most rewarding things we can do, But it can also come at a cost.

With more and more people experiencing burnout it can feel like it is part and parcel of making a difference. Doing more for less, fighting for funding, and ever greater demand on services has a significant impact not just on your wellbeing but the organisations.

It can feel like you’re all just holding to survive the week, so you can collapse at the weekend and recover (if you’re not still working).

Whether you want to

  • feel more more confident & competent

  • make sure you don’t burnout again

  • support your staff’s resilience

  • build a healthier working culture

you need a more sustainable approach. When working in a sector with greater demands on you, and few resources, you need to understand the emotional and psychological resources you can build to help you thrive not just survive as you make a difference.

As a psychologist with 20 years in the charity sector, I can help you use evidence -based psychology to create the change you want.
