I incorporate a Person-Centered approach. The person-centered approach views the person as their own best authority on their own experience. I also adopt when required a Psychodynamic approach. Psychodynamic psychotherapy considers that people repress past traumatic experiences, which can affect their personalities and behaviors in relationships.
The goal of talking to a counsellor / psychotherapist is to help you make sense of what is going on in your life. Reflecting on your past experiences and how they impact on the present, can help you understand the person you are today. I believe in the strength and courage of anyone seeking therapy and facing their struggles head-on.
Counselling can give time and an opportunity to develop insight and understanding of how you exist in your world and explore aspects of your life that may be inhibiting personal growth and can provide new ways to move forward. This insight is what can make change possible as our patterns of behaviour are explored and understood and as a consequence make it easier to make new choices and decisions.
I understand that the counselling work can be challenging but for most people counselling is a life changing, positive experience that creates greater self-awareness and understanding of our world.
As part of my practice I receive ongoing supervision to maintain well-informed, ethical practice. I am also committed to my own continual professional development and regularly attend courses and training forums, alongside reading relevant literature, research and articles as a means of keeping my counselling skills up to date.
