Welcome to Live the Solution!® the home of Silverton McLagan Psychodynamic Coaching.

We
are an exclusive boutique coaching practice offering psychodynamic coaching and psychotherapy. For decades we have specialised in counselling highly sensitive & highly creative individuals as well as having a lifelong passion for working with women, and all that their complex lives involve.

As you browse our specialty websites and blogs, Just “Too” Sensitive and Bigger than Balance, you will see that we have covered in detail who we are, what we do, and the clients we work with. Some pages may be long, but we want you to make an informed decision when choosing our brand of psychodynamic coaching. After all, it is an investment of your time and your resources…it is an investment in your future.


You can be anywhere in the world and work with us. We are situated in London, England but our clients stretch around the world. We work over the phone and online with the majority of our international clients. Although a fairly new approach, coaching and even psychotherapy by phone has been shown to be a highly successful life intervention.

“Do you work with someone like me?” It may be helpful to know the varied and fascinating group of people who have benefitted from our psychodynamic coaching and therapy. Here are just some…

...musicians, singers, artists, actors, journalist, professional and amateur athletes (including an NHL hockey player), screenwriter, comedy writer, children’s poet, lawyers, jewellery designer, photographer, health professionals, business owners, accountants, chef, baker, body builders, film production personnel, executives, brokers, forester, pilots, interior designer, event planner, sales people, teachers, school counsellors, stay-at-home mums, graduate students, financial advisors, entrepreneurs, set designers, theatre company manager, and graphic designers...

Psychodynamic coaching creates great change, the kind of change that lasts a lifetime. If you are ready and willing to dig deep, examine who you are and what you want, take a risk, change how you do things, and push yourself beyond your comfort zone, the life you want is waiting for you.

Have a look at both specialty websites as sometimes they overlap. While you are there sign up for our free monthly newsletter, Live the Solution!®, and receive a topical feature article and up-to-date information on special events and offerings.

Embrace Life,

Dr. Toby Silverton & Dr. Bev McLagan

If you have been described as too sensitive, too emotional, too artsy, too shy, too intense, too serious, too soft, too moody, too idealistic, and even too neurotic you are probably an HSP, a Highly Sensitive Person. Our HSP clients are creative artists and performers, but we work with many HSPs from a variety of professions.

As a Highly Sensitive Person it is time for you to stop worrying about what is “wrong” with you, or even if you are “crazy”. Understanding, accepting, and appreciating your HSP nature greatly improves your chances for happiness and success in your personal and professional life. We know you can love your life, accomplish your goals and enjoy a level of peak performance suited to your sensitive, creative, and dynamic nature.

Find in-depth insight and information about being an HSP and what our psychodynamic coaching can do for you, on our specialty website Just “Too” Sensitive
