Welcome to WellbeingWorks!
We are on a mission to improve wellbeing at work, promote compassionate and effective leadership, and to support individuals and organisations to develop astute and reflective understandings of their working patterns and relationships. Using evidence based psychological interventions, we can help business leaders elevate their knowledge of systems and team functioning, and support staff wellbeing. We can help individuals address work related stress, and improve their working relationships, both with themselves and others.
WellbeingWorks has a particular passion for supporting ‘people professionals’ in maximising their effectiveness and learning to look after themselves well. We offer training, supervision and psychotherapy to other Psychologists and therapists, Coaches, HR advisors, and those working in leadership.
‘HQ’ is based in North Wales, where face to face working can be facilitated, but more regularly work happens online, across the UK, and even internationally!

Honest testimonials from clients and organisations I've worked with
“Following a complicated divorce, family bereavement and change of job, my focus and mental well-being were dented. Melany provided the assistance and reassurances to get me loving life again through a block of weekly sessions. Highly recommended.”
Scott
“Melany was incredibly accommodating in what were very uncertain times. Therapy brought up a wide range of mental health topics; Melany had a good understanding of all of them. The path to a lasting, transformative recovery felt like a natural collaboration. I can wholeheartedly recommend Melany to others.”
Anonymous
"Throughout the process I came to understand myself better and recognise what abilities I had to regain control, improve my life, and, fundamentally, for my children to return home. I gained skills to maintain my mental health, emotional wellbeing and interpersonal relationships for the better. Initially therapy seems intense, but I felt very safe, relaxed and listened to. I would highly recommend”
Sarah
“Melany gave me guidance, space, and time to explore, feel and understand my emotions. She helped me to understand the way in which my past experiences were still influencing the way that I feel, act and make decisions. She gave me the confidence to begin to explore my own needs, which had been unmet for such a long time. This changed the way that I view myself, my life and my relationships. My experience has not been easy, but being advised and supported by Melany in a way I have not experienced in my life, encouraged me to be kind to myself and allow myself the things that I deserve and need. I know without a doubt that I would not been in the position I am now without Melany’s help.”
Alice
“I would recommend Melany a million times and more, she helped me become the person I wanted, she guided me through the things I needed guidance through, and showed me the care I needed, so that I could love and care for myself. Without the input I had from Melany I don't think I'd be where i am in life now. She truly gave me a second chance and a new meaning for life.”
Tanya
“I learned so much during my time under Mel's care. She is calm, caring and a brilliantly insightful person. I function and deal with life far better than I used to. Therapy is not easy but I have worked with a number of therapists in the past and Mel is one of the first I would recommend.”
Karl
“Mel brings the perfect balance of empathy and challenge, allowing you to explore difficult feelings and helping to reframe negative thought patterns. The work I did with Mel really helped me to be kinder to myself and gave me a much more positive outlook on life. “
Keira
“Mel actually challenged my self harming in a positive way which ultimately made me stop. And she always seemed to care and listen. “
Hannah
The time I spent working with Melany provided me with a completely new mindset and a new level of self-awareness, that has helped me to learn to cope better and challenge myself in daily life. Melany provides an environment that is both very friendly and understanding but also one that would challenge perspectives.
