Psychotherapy
For High Functioning People Who Will Not Say It Out Loud
The high performers other people rely on rarely get a space to take the armour off. Psychotherapy with Nicky Anstey is that space. Confidential, unhurried, built around the root patterns beneath the pressure.

The private problem
Most high functioning people seek therapy when they can feel the collapse coming.
On the outside, life is working. Business is working. Career is working. On the inside, you are carrying something that does not fit the picture. Old patterns. Old stories. A relationship with pressure that started a long time ago and has never really been looked at.
Psychotherapy is not crisis work. It is root work.
Executive psychotherapy
Psychotherapy with a Business and Performance Lens
Nicky is a multi award-winning Executive Psychotherapist and Business Performance Coach with over 15 years of experience. Her psychotherapy practice is shaped by the people she works with: people who are succeeding externally and quietly carrying something internally.
The work sits inside her trademarked Rewire Method. You can work with Nicky purely therapeutically, or inside an integrated Rewire Coaching programme.
According to research reported by Mind, only around 2 in 5 people experiencing mental health challenges access professional support. Among high functioning professionals, the figure is likely lower.

She has the results. Over 1,000 clients have worked with Nicky and gone through the Rewire Method. Reduced pressure, clearer thinking, stronger leadership, better relationships, healthier lives.
She is not a generalist. Nicky works specifically with high-achieving business owners and senior leaders. The people others assume are fine because they are still performing. She understands that world from the inside.
