What it can feel like.

Workplace bullying is more than a personality clash. It’s a pattern of behaviour that undermines confidence, safety and mental health, and many people put up with it for months or years before seeking help. It can affect sleep, concentration, stress levels and relationships, and leave you questioning your own perception.

  • Being ignored, excluded or singled out unfairly
  • Repeated criticism without basis
  • Pressure tactics or intimidation
  • Being set up to fail, or having your work sabotaged
  • Dreading work, poor sleep or trouble concentrating

These behaviours can become normalised over time, leaving people confused, isolated and unsure how to respond.

How we approach workplace bullying

Therapy offers a confidential space to understand the impact of bullying and clarify your options, at your pace.

  1. 1

    Understanding your experience

    Your psychologist starts with what’s going on for you, including what’s been happening at work and how it’s affecting you, in and outside work. You’ll talk about what brought you here and what you’d like to change.

  2. 2

    Choosing an approach together

    Your psychologist explains the options and why they might suit you, then you agree on a plan together.

  3. 3

    Reviewing the plan together

    Along the way, your psychologist checks progress with you, using measures chosen for you and what you’re working on, and adjusts the plan if needed.

What support can include
  • Naming what’s happening Understanding the behaviours clearly and recognising their impact on you.
  • Managing stress Working on the emotional and physical toll.
  • Self-esteem Looking at the self-doubt bullying can leave behind.
  • Weighing your options Boundary setting, documentation, HR processes, talking with leadership or planning next steps.
  • Preparing for difficult conversations Planning what you want to say, and how.

Behind your psychologist

Depth behind the person you see

You see one psychologist. Behind them is a practice that invests in what they know: training through the year, supervision built in, and time set aside to keep up with the research.

  • Trained for the work in front of them

    Our psychologists train through the year, and we train together when we take on a new approach.

  • Enough of us to match you properly

    With 25+ psychologists, we can put you with someone who works with what you’re facing, your age group, and the way you like to work.

  • Keeping up, on purpose

    New research, new frameworks and new tools get tested against what we already do. What earns its place stays.

If something isn’t working.

Tell us, or tell your psychologist. Here’s what can happen next.

  • Ask for a different psychologist

    We aim to get it right first time. If not, tell us and we’ll match you with someone else. No reason needed, and you won’t have to start over.

  • Talk it through with your psychologist

    Your psychologist reviews the plan with you, and can talk your care through in supervision. All our psychologists work with regular supervision and shared clinical standards.

  • Wondering about medication?

    If medication might be worth considering, we can write to your GP with what we’ve found, with your consent.

How do I know if what I’m experiencing is bullying?

Bullying involves repeated, unreasonable behaviour that creates a risk to your mental health. This may include exclusion, intimidation, constant criticism, manipulation, sabotage or aggressive communication. If the behaviour is persistent and impacting your wellbeing or ability to work, it is worth seeking support to explore what’s happening.

Can therapy help even if I’m not ready to report it?

Yes. Many people come to therapy because they’re unsure what to do next. Therapy provides a confidential space to process what’s happening, look after yourself and clarify your options before taking any formal action.

What if the bullying is affecting my confidence or mental health?

Bullying can bring anxiety, self-doubt, low mood, poor sleep or stress-related physical symptoms. Therapy gives you space to work on coping skills and self-doubt, and to think through decisions at your own pace.

Can you help me navigate HR, leadership or workplace processes?

While we don’t provide legal advice, we can help you prepare for difficult conversations, document your experiences and explore how workplace processes typically work.

What if I decide to leave my workplace?

Leaving is sometimes the right choice, and therapy can support you through that transition. We help you process the experience and think about what you want from your next workplace.

Start with a phone call.

We’ll listen, ask a few questions and match you with a psychologist who fits.

Monday to Friday, 9am to 4:30pm, or leave a message and we’ll call you back.
