About me and my therapy practice

I am a integrative Psychotherapist and Counsellor. I  am also a certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and rapid transformational therapist, trained in the Marisa Peer Method. What this means is that I draw on a wide range of different strategies, techniques, theories and trainings. I graduated from the Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education with a post graduate diploma and have worked in successful private practice as a psychotherapist for more than 17 years. I have undergone many additional therapy trainings, including ones in cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness training.

I believe my many years of experience as a Psychotherapist complement and enhance my work as a  Clinical Hypnotherapist and Rapid Transformational therapist.

My approach is collaborative, practical and solution-focused. I offer my clients empathy and respect, valuing their uniqueness as an individual, without judgement. I adhere to very strict codes of conduct and guarantee all my clients the utmost respect and privacy, including those with a high public profile.

I consider it an enormous privilege to be part of my client’s process and to witness the extraordinary positive transformations, growth and change that I see in them.


Practice description

PSYCHOTHERAPY

Humanistic psychotherapy believes that we all have an innate capacity for, and impulse towards, emotional health and that each person carries deep within, the wisdom and solution to their difficulties. Good therapy is about identifying and removing the blocks to achieving our potential. Life can feel painful, challenging and overwhelming at times and psychotherapy provides an opportunity to speak confidentially and openly to someone who is trained to listen in a particular way and who can give you support and help you gain clarity and insight into your situation and feelings.

The process of psychotherapy helps you make links between past and present experiences to better understand and address your current difficulties. My aim as a therapist is to help you gain insight into your life and patterns and to support you in finding creative resourceful solutions and new ways of being that serve , whist living a life aligned to your own particular sets of values and authentic self.

 I have been referred to as a dynamic therapist as I do offer strategies, techniques and skills that I believe may be helpful for a client. I try to offer a ‘natural’ and human approach as I’m aware that entering into therapy can be daunting to many people. I offer my clients empathy and respect, valuing their uniqueness as an individual, without judgement. I adhere to very strict codes of conduct and guarantee all my clients the utmost respect and privacy, including those with a high public profile.

I am often told by clients that I have a very gentle and reassuring voice and approach and, as a result, they find it easy to feel safe and comfortable with me.

I see the therapeutic relationship as being of utmost importance. Its basic values are integrity, impartiality and respect. 

Confidentiality and trust are considered to be of utmost importance in therapy.  As an overview to my approach I also recognize the interconnected nature of mind, body, heart and spirit.
