Meet the DEAL Community

I head up the Corporate Responsibility team at a global law firm, and am eager to connect with this community for 2 reasons: I'm interested in building a sustainability strategy for my firm that's rooted in the Doughnut Economics model, and I'm eager to build a community of sustainability-minded people in my local area.

Edinburgh

I am a Psychotherapist & Cyclist, based in Edinburgh, Scotland. I run a psychotherapy practice as a social enterprise https://www.mentalhealthcarecollective.org.uk/ which involves offering reduced rate of free therapy to those who can't afford it and working in partnership with third sector organisations. I also organise an annual Bikepacking event,  a free week long social ride, exploring and connecting with Scotland's wild places by bike and raising money for charity. My passions are mental health, addressing climate change, cycling and cats. I was inspired by reading Doughnut Economics to operate my psychotherapy practice as a social enterprise. I am currently working on a model integrating an understanding of the psychological drivers of the mental health crisis and the climate crisis.  #mental health #climate emergency #behavioural change
