ABOUT ME

PRACTICE

 

I have over 35 years experience and training in Counselling,

Psychotherapy, Supervision, Training and Consultancy as well as in Mental Health. In that time I have integrated a number of approaches into my work that include philosophy, science, and psychotherapy theories. I have included the following links to the influences that have been significant for me:

Existential Psychotherapy, including the work of Viktor Frankl  and  James Parks;  Transactional Analysis;  Group Analysis;  Solution Focused Brief Therapy;  Jungian Creative Therapy;  Client Centred Therapy

Mindfulness: Sexual Minority Therapy: Gender Work; Working at Relational Depth; Focusing and Gendlin’s Process Model;

 

I am currently integrating recent developments in counselling and psychotherapy that are  being influenced by developments in Interpersonal Neurobiology, Empathic/Limbic Resonance and Somatic Experiencing;  into my practice.

 

I will offer you the space and time to explore what’s important to you
