The work I carry out today is tailored entirely to the individual. As an integrative therapist I take the view that there are as many different approaches towards working with clients as there are clients who come to therapy. | cover a wide variety of life issues including trauma, suicide, loss, family and relationship problems, stress, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, abuse (male and female), negative thinking and behavioural issues. I work with all ages and both individuals and couples.
Listen
In order to work well together, I have to be able to consider your strengths, your difficulties, where you came from, where you are now, and where you want to be.
I do this by creating a confidential, safe therapeutic space where you can slow down, unravel your thoughts and breathe. I listen carefully as you work through your inner thoughts and feelings at your own pace…
Understand
…but it’s not only me listening. It’s also you listening to yourself.
As you hear yourself working your way through your experiences and thoughts, I am gradually integrating techniques from a variety of therapies to allow both our understandings of your situation to grow. Gently intervening in your thought process, I can help towards increasing your ability to deal with issues you are grappling with…
Resolve
Viewing your life from different angles, you can begin to develop insights that will free up decision-making, and unlock potential, in your personal life and at work.
Our sessions can be hard work and even feel quite strange to begin with, but underpinning our work is a strong and trusting working relationship. We operate as a team towards a common goal; aiming to transform your issues from an obstacle or weakness into the rock of experience that you stand on.
