Overcome High Functioning Anxiety

With Dr Lorna Kerr, Clinical Psychologist & Online Therapist

I help high achieving individuals to feel more calm, confident and resilient through a holistic approach that integrates psychology, yoga and evidence-based online therapy for anxiety.

Hello, I’m Dr Lorna Kerr. I’m glad you’re here.

Are you feeling burnt out, overwhelmed or anxious, even when from the outside, your life is going well? Perhaps you struggle with self-doubt, racing thoughts or constant worry. If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

I specialise in helping people to overcome high functioning anxiety & burnout through evidence-based and holistic psychology. With the right support and strategies, it's absolutely possible to overcome anxiety and find more peace, balance and happiness in your life.

I believe that the first step to feeling better and enjoying life again is understanding and regulating the nervous system through somatic psychology and evidence-based psychological therapy. When your nervous system is regulated, your mind and body feel the benefits too.

Holistic Psychology for Mind-Body Balance

  • EMDR for high functioning anxiety

    EMDR for Anxiety & Burnout

    EMDR is an evidence-based psychological therapy that is often very effective for anxiety, chronic stress and burnout. Anxiety or burnout are sometimes linked to past experiences or negative beliefs that are unprocessed or blocked. EMDR works by allowing your mind and body to gently release these “blocks” at your own pace. Many of my clients describe EMDR as being transformative and empowering as it focuses on your unique strengths and resilience.

    Holistic Psychology & Mindfulness

    I specialise in somatic psychology and evidence-based mind-body practices for high functioning anxiety, chronic stress and burnout. I’ve been personally practising mindfulness and yoga for many years and I qualified as a Yoga for Health practitioner in 2018. I now incorporate my knowledge of yoga, psychology, neuroscience and nervous system regulation to help my clients to find more peace, balance and fulfilment in their lives.

    Compassion Focused Therapy

    Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) is based on evolutionary psychology, attachment theory and the neuroscience of emotions. This kind of therapy helps you to increase your sense of self-worth and develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself without losing your drive or ambition. This type of therapy is especially helpful if you struggle with shame, guilt or have a lot of self-critical thoughts or low self-esteem.
