 In my Counselling and Psychotherapy practice, I work with clients from all walks of life who sense they are at some ‘critical point’ in their lives; perhaps stuck, confused and unsure of the way forward - at a crossroads. Discovering meaning and purpose in these ‘places’ can be transforming and help realise new perspectives and horizons. The continual struggle, when self-esteem is low, can feel overwhelming, and it can often take great courage to ask for help or support. The struggle might be with: lack of confidence and self-esteem, relationship difficulties, constant states of anxiety, depression, the stress of maintaining habitual behaviours, panic attacks, eating problems, outbursts of anger and rage, sexual problems, a lack of direction and purpose in life, effects of past trauma, feeling isolated, experiencing loss, chronic fatigue, major life changes. And.... these are usually symptoms of an underlying, and often unconscious cause. By addressing these causes in therapy, significant and lasting change can come about. Despite unique differences, backgrounds and concerns, experience has taught me my clients want to: Regain a sense of Balance Identify and make sense of what's going on currently, how they 'ended up here', and use their inner strengths and creative resources to regain balance, control and responsibilty for their lives Reclaim a sense of Integrity Gain insight into, and acceptance of, their unique individuality and difference, developing the confidence to be more of who they truly are Find Purpose and Direction Be able to see their own path more clearly and follow it with commitment and courage "No problem is solved with the same consciousness that created it" - Albert Einstein CLIENTS have included; artists, bank managers, beauty therapists, bricklayers, writers, film directors, care home managers, carpenters, CEO's, civil servants, computer programmers, counsellors, drug rehabilitation counsellors, electricians, journalists, entrepreneurs, estate agents, dentists, farmers wives, health and saftey officers, language teachers, life coaches, masseurs, media consultants, military and security personnel, musicians, oil rig engineers, osteopaths, police officers, priests, psychologists, psychotherapists, shop assistants, doctors, social workers, teachers, TV & film producers.
