Creative work asks something unusual of people psychologically.

At JustForward we offer applied psychology to work with actors, talent agents, creative professionals and production teams. Founded by Consultant Psychologists Laura Bowden and

Dr Joel Harvey, our work draws on more than twenty years of psychological experience in complex and demanding environments.

Exceptional productions don't just need exceptional people. They need exceptional people to work well together.

Our Production Psychology offer treats the cast and crew as a high performance team. Producers can bring us into a production to help an agreed core group start well, stay well and end well. This might include psychological profiling and debriefs, facilitated team sessions, confidential psychological check ins during filming, and individual and team sessions around wrap and transition. For returning productions, we can also support teams to end well and come back together well. The emphasis is preventative: building strong relationships and psychological support into a production rather than waiting until difficulties arise.

Confidential psychological support, before it's needed.

We also offer flexible Anchor Sessions for actors and creative professionals, providing confidential psychological support around the realities of a creative career.
