Profile

Throughout our lives we need to turn to others to help us manage difficult feelings, problems, conflicts and distress. The people I meet usually seek out professional support when their experience, skills and solutions no longer seem to work for them. These difficulties are sometimes experienced as: recurring relationship problems; wounding communication patterns; feelings of sadness, anger or despair; or, feeling overwhelmed by everyday life.

My clinical work is with individuals, couples and families and together we create a safe space in which to find a way forward. In our work together, we can draw upon my experience as an Integrative Psychotherapist and Counselling Psychologist who has worked within the NHS, charities and voluntary organisations since 1994. My experience may particularly benefit those living with disabilities such as physical or mental health difficulties, learning disability or life-limiting illness.

To begin with, we would meet to find out what prompts you to seek out support at this time and in what ways we might be able to work together. This face-to-face meeting usually lasts an hour and also gives you an opportunity to see how you feel about working with me. Together, we would negotiate a contract or agreement, which would clarify our focus, how long we might work together, how much this would cost and a regular meeting time.

I bring my professional training, skills and experience to our meetings and I work with integrity, honesty and the belief in life-long personal change and growth. I work within and am bound by, the ethical frameworks of the professional organisations I am a member of. To comply with these memberships, I have regular clinical supervision.

If you would like to discuss booking an initial meeting with me, you can contact me on 07 903 502 305 (do leave a message if I am unable to answer, I will get back to you as soon as I can) or by e-mail on rozen@journeywork.co.uk
