I organise and offer workshops, training days, presentations and demonstrations to businesses, institutions of higher and adult education, charities and the NHS.
The foundation of my approach to psychotherapy is humanistic thinking, the principle of which is that human beings are able to understand, gain insight and change themselves. My working approach is based on contextual psychotherapy which means looking into the embeddedness of the client into her/his wider context and how their psycho-physical wellbeing is affected by that.
Psychotherapy facilitates insight and personal growth. It helps to clarify issues, increase physical and emotional well being, enhance learning and develop new skills. It is for people with serious mental health conditions and people who really struggle with their lives, as well as those who just want to develop themselves.
Psychotherapy is for all ages and I work extensively with teenagers age 12+, young adults and adults of all ages and backgrounds. I hold regular groups in Southampton, as well as working in schools, colleges, workplaces and charities. I also work collaboratively with NHS Mental Health teams, GPs and Social Services .
