Senior psychological consultancy for complex people and high-pressure organisations.
Individual Support
Senior psychological support for complex lives, health and change
There are times when something has changed, but it is difficult to explain exactly what.
You may still be working, caring for others, making decisions and meeting expectations, while privately feeling more anxious, exhausted, overwhelmed, disconnected or less able to manage what once felt possible.
Mycore provides confidential individual psychotherapy for adults who want to understand the wider pattern, rather than focus only on a symptom.
The work is formulation-led, biopsychosocial, discreet and senior-led. Appropriate if you are looking for thoughtful, experienced psychological work rather than a high-volume or protocol-led service.
Is Mycore the Right Fit?
An initial enquiry is simply an opportunity to briefly explain what you are looking for and consider whether the approach is likely to be suitable.
There is no expectation that you arrive knowing exactly what you need.
When Complexity Needs a More Considered Response
Who Mycore often works with
Many people who come to Mycore are outwardly functioning well. They may be professionals, leaders, carers, parents or people accustomed to being the one others rely upon.
From the outside, life may still appear largely intact. Internally, however, maintaining that level of functioning may be taking considerably more effort.
Mycore may be particularly suited to people who value:
- experienced psychological support
- discretion and continuity
- thoughtful formulation rather than a generic programme
- psychological depth without unnecessary pathologising
- consideration of both mental and physical health
- a collaborative and appropriately paced therapeutic relationship.
Two different starting points
Individual Support
Appropriate when you already know that you would like ongoing psychotherapy and want space to work through difficulty over time.
Specialist Psychological Formulation
Appropriate when the picture feels particularly complex and you want a structured consultation to understand what may be contributing before deciding whether therapy — or something else — should come next.
