Let me help you

find your purpose

At Max Purpose Psychology, I specialise in offering individual and group supervision, coaching and training for Psychologists, Education Leaders and Business Owners.

My goal is to provide you with the guidance, support and resources you need to make your work, life and career more fulfilling.

For me, supervision and coaching aren’t just helpful—they’re essential. I believe we’re all continually learning and evolving, and I’m dedicated to fostering that growth. Through Max Purpose, I focus on creating a safe and supportive space where you can openly discuss ethical challenges, enhance accountability and work through any obstacles you may face.

I also recognise the importance of celebrating success. In our culture, we can sometimes be reluctant to acknowledge our achievements, so I make sure we take the time to focus on the positives as well as solving problems. Whether you need a boost to motivation or a structured path to achieve your goals, I’m here to help you succeed.

Join me at Max Purpose Psychology, and together we’ll make your work, life and career more rewarding.

Are you at a crossroads in your career and unsure of your next step?

Do you find yourself dreading the start of the week every Sunday night?

Are you feeling frustrated and disillusioned with your current work situation?

This is why I started Max Purpose Psychology

As Educational Psychologists, we possess a broad skillset. We can work at a systemic level, deliver training, provide one-to-one support, collaborate with families and so much more. Yet, too often, our full potential isn’t utilised. This is why more and more Educational Psychologists are moving into private practice—to have the freedom to fully apply their expertise and make a real difference. I created Max Purpose Psychology to use my skills and have a positive impact on the lives of my clients.

I often refer to the Japanese concept of ‘ikigai’—the idea of finding where your happiness, skills and values intersect.

Living with cystic fibrosis has given me a heightened awareness of how precious time is. None of us knows how long we have, so I want to spend my time helping others find their purpose and thrive. Max Purpose Psychology is my own ikigai—a place where I can do the work I love, using my skills in a way that truly makes a difference.

Client Testimonials

Maxine is highly skilled and highly knowledgeable. Whether it’s discussing models of applied psychology or issues related to private practice, Maxine is helpful and a great sounding board. As well as her values of authenticity, learning, collaboration, compassion and trust, I would also add generosity. Maxine approaches her practice with an abundance mindset and I have been fortunate enough to benefit from her wisdom and generosity of spirit through supervision sessions. I would highly recommend Maxine for anyone looking for a supervisor who can offer warmth, wisdom and a great sense of humour.

Dr Reem Ameri

Educational Psychologist, Client

Maxine is a caring and compassionate supervisor. Throughout my time as an Assistant EP I have had the honour of shadowing and working alongside Max. She approaches her work with professionalism, passion and extensive amount of knowledge. During supervision she provides a safe space where I am able to reflect and review my practice, encouraging me to try new things. She is always looking for new CPD opportunities to develop the team. Always on hand to help Maxine is truly a pleasure to work alongside. The positive support I have received from Max really reflects in my improved work life balance.

Sophie Elder

Assistant Educational Psychologist, reporting directly to Maxine

Maxine has an open and warm manner and is also a great listener. She really invests in those she is working with and helps you to generate your own ideas and solutions, whilst also having lots of information and experience at her finger tips that she shares readily. She is a natural coach.

Dr Kirstie Rees

Coaching with Maxine has been such a rewarding and beneficial experience. Her ability to put you at ease and use client language is helpful.
