Why work with Know Your Mind Consulting?

​

Our founder, Dr Rosie Gilderthorp is a Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years of experience in mental health helping parents to overcome mental health difficulties, connect with their values and thrive personally and professionally.

​

Rosie experienced severe pregnancy sickness (sometimes called HG) while pregnant with her first child. Her experience of attempting to continue working in the NHS as a Clinical Psychologist, a role that gave her a sense of identity and meaning, while facing the steepest challenge of her life led her to struggle with her own mental health. Since then she has been dedicated to helping other parents going through challenging circumstances to maintain their sense of self and hope so they can thrive at home and at work.

​

Our team of HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologists have doctoral-level qualifications and decades of experience across the public, private and academic sectors. Our specialist interests include severe pregnancy sickness, birth trauma, gender disappointment and neurodiversity. In order to stay at the cutting edge of evidence we are collaborating with the Innovation in Mental Health project CIC and Kings College London on our own research. Our current project is focused on developing effective interventions for severe pregnancy sickness.
