Professional services firms need professional services.

This is where we come in. 

“We help professional services firms by creating meaningful and sustainable psychological change. We are nationally recognised leaders at applying cutting edge psychoneuroimmunology research to sustainably improve wellbeing and performance” – Rajna Bogdanovic, Founder. 

We Support 

Rajna is outstanding on many levels. She is, first and foremost, a lovely, warm human being, immediately relatable and easy to talk to. Her friendly and professional manner puts people at ease and makes connecting with her a joy. She has extensive experience in supporting people experiencing trauma in some of the direst circumstances the world has ever seen and draws on this to support people experiencing difficulties in what might here be described as “first world situations”. That is not to diminish the pain people experience here, but to demonstrate her vast qualification to support.

It’s pretty hard to put into words the help that you have given me over the last few months. Also the help you are providing my work colleagues. You are saving lives, and for that I thank you

Getting support when you need it can be hard. From my first phone call to the organisation, I felt understood. In therapy, I never needed to explain what I did or how I did it- you got me! You have made me feel normal, and human again. To my colleagues - reach out. You deserve support when you need it most.

I have worked with Rajna on a one-to-one basis, and also with groups. Her approach is to prepare to the brief comprehensively through written and verbal mediums, seeking to deeply understand the purpose of what I was trying to achieve, and what success would look like. Her style in a one to one is incredibly empathetic, with a good measure of practical strategies thrown in. She listens brilliantly. With a group, she has a down-to-earth manner, showing her own vulnerability along with the depth of her knowledge. She is flexible, engaging and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Attaining (and maintaining) a sense of wellness post the holiday season.

The last few (and first few) weeks of the year tend to be packed with non-stop activities. Although this is an often stressful time, it is also one filled with joy and happiness at being surrounded by loved ones. We can sometimes continue the over-indulging into the new year or on the other side of the coin perhaps feel a…

How to connect with your grown up child

Connecting with grown-up children can be difficult. As children grow up, they can become disconnected from parents due to distance, changes in lifestyles and schedules, or simply them growing into adulthood, and the nature of the relationship changing. Although cell phones and texting have made sharing information inexpensive, easy and more immediate, these methods of communication can sometimes be the…
