Psychotherapist Gean Viriri writes from lived practice, exploring emotional awareness in the workplace, self-leadership at work, and the inner patterns shaping professional behaviour, inviting readers into steadier, more grounded and emotionally intelligent ways of working.
Gean Viriri is a UK-based psychotherapist with decades of clinical experience working with professionals navigating emotional life at work, trauma, and identity. Trained in CBT, EMDR, and integrative practice, her books emerged from lived therapeutic work. She explores emotional triggers in the workplace, self-leadership at work, and emotional regulation at work. Parts in the Room reflects her experience as a Black African therapist examining race, power, and silence in professional therapy spaces.
Decoding Workplace Emotions explores workplace emotional intelligence, emotional awareness in the workplace, and self-leadership at work, helping readers understand emotional triggers in professional life. The Companion Workbook offers practical exercises for managing workplace emotions and developing emotional regulation at work. Parts in the Room is a reflective work on race, power, and silence in psychotherapy spaces, examining identity, history, and presence beyond clinical theory.
Decoding Workplace Emotions looks closely at what really drives emotional life at work. Rather than focusing on surface level emotional intelligence, it explores emotional awareness in the workplace, self-leadership at work, and the often-unnoticed patterns shaping workplace behaviour and emotions. Grounded in therapeutic practice, the book helps readers recognise emotional triggers in the workplace and find steadier, more conscious ways of leading themselves through everyday professional challenges.
The Companion Workbook is designed for thoughtful application rather than quick consumption. It supports emotional awareness in the workplace through structured exercises and guided reflection that engage real experiences at work. The workbook focuses on self-leadership practice, emotional regulation at work, and managing emotional triggers as they arise. Used steadily over time, it helps readers translate insight into practice, strengthening workplace emotional skills through reflection, consistency, and lived engagement.
Parts in the Room is a reflective work exploring race, identity, and silence within professional therapy spaces. Written from lived experience, it examines race and power in psychotherapy, the Black therapist’s body in practice, and how history and trans generational memory surface in clinical settings. The book invites race-conscious therapeutic practice through witnessing, presence, and honest reflection, rather than theory, technique, or instruction.
The work is unfolding, with questions deepening and new rooms slowly opening for those willing to stay present.
