London Psychologist - Leadership and Performance Coaching - Dr Catherine Sykes

Psychologist and Coach

A demanding career comes with its own unique challenges to mental and physical health, relationships, and performance.

When professionals in high pressurised careers need psychological and coaching services, they need a professional who understands their world and their ambition and who fully understands the theory and practice of the psychology of success, happiness and health.

I provide psychological services to professionals and their families from across the world. Based in the City of London since 2005, I have developed a solid reputation in the law and finance sectors.

Let me take you on a safe, yet challenging journey of self-discovery in which you will receive professionally crafted solutions that work for you!

Accreditations

Law and finance in The City of London are strictly regulated, an environment where professionalism, exceptional standards and confidentiality are service qualifiers. You have high expectations of your fellow professionals and should expect the same from your psychologist and coach. I am accredited by the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP), a member of the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and an Associate Fellow (AFBPsS) of British Psychological Society (BPS). I am on the BPS register of Coaching Psychologists.

I am also a Leader Factor accredited Psychological Safety Coach and Trainer.

Research

Your world is complex and ever changing, with new developments requiring your constant focus to remain one of your profession’s elite. To maintain my knowledge and thought leadership, I have been involved in research for 20 years, making significant contributions to psychological research and publishing numerous scientific, peer-reviewed research articles. I have presented my research at international conferences and written papers across a wide array of subjects. I serve on the editorial board of the Journal of Health Psychology, peer reviewing the latest research of my academic and professional contemporaries.

Publicatons

Mastering a profession and establishing your personal brand as one of the high performing elite in your field requires investment in staying not just abreast of, but ahead of the trend. To inform my practice, I am actively involved in research, peer reviews, writing and interviews with the general media. As well as presenting work at international conferences, I write books and articles, including a best-selling book on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).
