Health & Wellbeing Support for Individuals Navigating Separation & Divorce
 
Medically informed support to help clients remain clear, stable and psychologically well while progressing through legal processes.
 
Separation and divorce commonly involve prolonged periods of uncertainty, decision pressure and emotional strain. Many individuals experience significant cognitive and physiological stress which can affect decision-making capacity, emotional regulation, sleep, energy levels and day-to-day functioning.
 
As a GP with training in Lifestyle Medicine and health coaching, I provide structured support to help clients manage stress physiology, reduce overwhelm, maintain clarity when making complex decisions, protect health during prolonged proceedings and maintain functioning at work and as a parent. This service does not provide legal advice or therapy, but supports clients to remain well and able to engage effectively with legal professionals.
