What do top organisations-- the Institute Of Directors (London), Mother digital agency and London Business School-- have in common? DrP.

Dr Perpetua Neo (DClinPsy, UCL; MPhil, Cambridge) coaches Type A+++ overachievers with demanding lives to be in-control of their heads, time and relationships, so they perform and lead at their best always. And, they sleep like a cat.

DrP tailors strategies to her clients’ personalities and lifestyles, building lasting systems and structures, so they achieve multiple personal and professional goals. She specialises in The Big 3 we mistakenly tolerate— high-functioning anxiety, toxic relationships and panic attacks— blending cutting-edge neuroscience, psychology and ancient wisdom.

Master Your Psychological Capital

DrP’s specialist topic is sustainable high performance without burning out. So busy people master their time, sleep and minds in a way that’s tailored to their personality, and organisations thrive because they leverage diversity. DrP tailors to your organisation’s teams and positions, such as sales or junior/senior leadership teams. Instead of another wellness fad or lecture to clog your To Do list, her programs are (1) delivered in plain English, (2) designed so you take action, and (3) engineered for lasting transformation. Get in touch so you can partner to create win-win-win strategies that enhance both performance and wellness.

What the experts are saying

Vanessa Bennett

CEO of Global High Performance Boutique
Perpetua is a high performer herself and therefore is absolutely well placed to coach high performers. Her knowledge of issues specific to high performers means that she always adds value. To anyone aiming for constant improvement in dealing with matters of the mind she is very easy to recommend.

Tayo Rockson

Cultural Communications Expert, UN & World Bank Speaker
Perpetua is a brilliant doctor and now uses her experiences to become the best and highest versions of themselves. This is definitely one you don’t want to miss, because if you don’t work internally, you’re not able to make changes externally.  

Peter Shmock

2X Olympian, Author & Coach
  This is one of our best yet. She's a gifted writer, coach and psychologist. Perpetua's a remarkable teacher we all could use.

Perpetua is an outstanding speaker, brings to life her glorious speech through exceptional language. 5 mins with Dr Perpetua Neo can transform your success.

Nanyang Technological University

Singapore

Terri Cole

Relationship Expert, Master Coach & Psychotherapist
Perpetua and I work with very similar demographics of high functioning women on prioritizing self-care. She is an expert on narcissism. I find Dr. Neo’s work compelling. She has brilliantly developed her own way to help women quickly identify an abusive relationship and how to get out of it, while staying safe.

What Clients Say About DrP

Ms IP

Senior Teacher
Anger was my best friend for a long time. I didn’t know what to do apart from live in fear. With DrP, I verbalised alot of things that kept me down for the first time. I stopped looking for problems where they aren’t problems. I stopped reacting emotionally. She has helped me with my anger, job, relationships and parenting. I now do more for myself.

Ms RO

Manager
I had enough. I was angry and anxious for a long time, or numb. They feelings had no trigger. You helped me to focus on the 10% of my worries that are realistic, and to understand that my emotional and logical sides were fighting each other. As I visualised what I really want, I started making small changes. Like, me-time and going out with my friends whom I’d shut myself away from. My work performance soared. People have started noticing that I am much happier. My life is now more about taking action, becoming mindful, and less drama. Coinciding with the end of therapy, we moved to a new place. It feels like a symbolic closure to a very long and old chapter of my life. Thank you.

Fiorella Klein

Women's Wellness Coach, Meditation & Yoga Teacher
The world needs to hear her message and be inspired by her fearless authenticity. Dr Perpetua Neo is an insightful heartfelt Goddess who knows the landscape of the human psyche like the back of her hand. Her passion for mental wellbeing knows no bounds, and I feel fortunate to call her an industry peer and friend. She helped me clear blocks I had around high-paying clients, and my coaching business has taken off. Her support led to me believing in myself as an entrepreneur.

Mr ZI

Retail Worker
Everything was out of control, I was anxious, depressed and couldn’t sleep. Perpetua always has a smile. I learned to question my way of thinking while feeling not judged, and pushed my boundaries. It's been 30 years, and for the first time I thought about my career differently. I requested for a new job position and stood up to a bully. I worry less and no longer want to hurt myself. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to achieve what they wish to achieve, and who feel stuck and upset with their life. Excellent service that changed my life. Thank you!

Tay & Val

CEO & CIO, International Speakers & Award-winning Filmmakers
We worked with Dr. P for several speaking engagements and she always delivers above and beyond. She is also a Master Writer. From learning about the event objectives, to researching the audience, to putting together the presentation—every step is on point and intentional. The audience loves Dr P's no-nonsense no-hashtags approach to mental health and wellbeing—and her wicked sense of humour—and always walks away with practical next steps they can take to live better. We've always marvelled at how she puts our strings of words into one on-point sentence. We highly recommend Dr. P as your subject matter expert, speaker, or facilitator at your next event!

Ms IS

Entrepreneur
I am opening my eyes to see beauty in the everyday. Life is your daily routine, and you should look forward to your daily routine. Lately, I’ve been getting more vocal about my needs, it’s liberating. I’m leaving the old stories behind!

Adam Tate

Adam Tate, Health Coach & Nutritional Therapist
Thank you so very much for your genius insights, incredible knowledge and wisdom. What a fascinating way to begin a new chapter and to dig deep inside in order to bring out the old and make space for the new! I am very grateful for all your efforts. I learned you can kickass even as you walk down the stairs to a dodgy-looking basement, if you have the right energy and connection. These last 9 days has certainly opened up this focus and a yearning to know more and to work very hard at it.

Samantha Denning

Entrepreneur
DrP is energetic, dynamic and engaging. I loved how I learned to incorporate all the senses in creating new perspectives and growing myself. I was also able to take the time to reflect and connect.

Mr GL

Retiree
For thirty years, I saw many professionals. I was angry and believed that I had no hope with my bipolar disorder, anxiety and anger. You patiently helped me to understand why I enjoyed being angry and worried. You helped me to tackle sharing my thoughts with the people who mattered. Quickly, I realised that things could change. I enjoyed setting aside time for Worry Time and Angry Time, and to use mindfulness meditation outside of those times. I learned to focus on happy and productive things that made me proud, and learned to tackle my moods with our action plans. Thank you so much.

Mr RI

Senior Manager
"You’ve grounded me. I didn’t expect to achieve so much in eight sessions. My relationship breakdown hit me a lot harder than I thought. When we started, I thought it’d be like previous attempts at psychotherapy— with little change. You take a genuine interest in me, and are enthused by what you do; you’ve clearly changed your own life too. What surprised me was how you deliver your points clearly and rationally. It’s nice not to feel bullied by myself for a change, and to be able to enjoy my life. I’d really recommend working with Perpetua to anyone who feels like they have stumbling blocks to a fulfilling and happy life. It’s really worth coming to somebody who knows."

Ms DK

Founder
When I first hired DrP, I had a cross-continental legal battle and experienced trauma episodes five times a day. I blamed myself. He felt like a ghost. In two sessions, my trauma episodes went down to once a day. I understand the dynamics of a relationship with a psychopath a lot more. I have more energy, stopped blaming myself, and realised I don’t have to forgive him. I used to feel guilty if my friends had no boundaries and made use of me. Now I put them in their place. I even worry way less about my health. It used to be a story of David & Goliath. Mentally, I believed I wasn’t on the same level with him. Now I feel I can step into the arena and win. He’s no longer a ghost. He’s simply a wolf. And I can defeat the wolf.

Mr MA

Accountant
Immediate hire! They hired me on the spot, and cancelled all the other interviews. And DrP only coached me for 30 minutes.

Ms KJ

Housewife
Divorce done and dusted. You helped me validate and strategise. I no longer have illusions about explaining things away for people, and I set boundaries with anyone overbearing. I enjoy my freedom and no longer have hangups.

What the experts are saying about DrP

Garth Spiers

CEO, GSImpact Ltd (UK).
If there was one word to sum Perpetua, it’d be “Authentic”. I’ve known Perpetua for many years, and she helps clients to cut through confusion and bring about change quickly. Yet, she does it in a caring and supportive way, with deep wisdom and a wide range of techniques. What I like most about her is how she walks her talk, and applies the same knowledge that she offers to others.

Dr Karen Pooh

Clinical Psychologist
You don't just help others to see the light in darkness. You spark freaking amazing, awesome, ASTOUNDING fireworks in yours’ and others' lives in the darkest nights!
