"The Bar, by its very nature, can be  stressful place to work; from the subject matter, urgency and speed at which we are required to operate, to the often isolating nature and responsibilities of self-employed practice, barristers are acutely at risk from performance-inhibiting factors. Despite these well known pressures the profession remains an environment where it is perceived to be professionally  'fatal' to reveal any weakness." (Rachel Spearing 2015)

However, change is afoot and mental health and wellbeing are beginning to be more fully recognised  as important areas to be addressed within the profession. The Bar Council publication, 'Wellbeing at the Bar' (2015) recognised the  prevalence and impact of anxiety, stress and depression etc  amongst its members.

My Salisbury House practice represents a safe haven of absolute discretion in which issues relating to mental health and wellbeing can be explored and made sense of - in confidence.
