About me

Transpersonal Psychotherapy can be seen as a process of engaging with Your innate wisdom (in tuition)  and encouraging the development of your essential (often hidden) strengths and qualities through the recognition and transformation of their distortions .

Anxiety, panic attacks, Depression, troubled relationships, distress, difficult emotions, obsessive thoughts are some of the pointers to area of the self in need of curiosity and acceptance which might lead to transformation.

This process tends to naturally lead to an enhanced sense of self and purpose, and therefore to better quality of life.

I have almost 30 year experience of accompanying people on their journey of self discovery.
Although influenced by my experience of analytical depth psychology (Jungian) I pay attention to, and respect your preferences and interests, confident in my belief that each one of us can be sensitised to our ever present inner guidance, regardless of age, educational experience or cultural and spiritual background.

What do we do?

Some people prefer  talking, safely tucked in a comfy chair, while others like to experiment with art material, sand tray, movements or sounds. We might find ourselves occasionally working out of doors. Focus on observation of the impact of  both inner and outer worlds is encouraged. (mindfulness)
Often psychotherapy clients work over several years, some over a few months, others need just a few weeks and occasionally some people want a single consultation in order to clarify a specific issue in their life or work with a dream.

Typically we have an initial free half hour introduction by phone or in person, followed if appropriate by an assessment if which we decide whether we are suitable for working with each other and make a working agreement.

I am also trained in EMDR and EFT and make these available to people who do not wish to engage in in-depth psychotherapeutic work, in order to help alleviate traumatic memories and PTS, compulsive behaviour, Anxiety, Anger, and possibly some physical symptoms, often with impressive results in a relatively short number of sessions.

However, in my experience you will start feeling some benefit when we are both able and willing to engage fully in a working relationship.

As Carl Rogers said:

'We regard the medical model as an extremely inappropriate model for dealing with psychological disturbances. The model that makes more sense is a growth model or a developmental model. In other words we see people as having a potential for growth and development, and that can be released under the right psychological climate. We don’t see them as sick and needing a diagnosis, prescription and a cure. And that is a very fundamental difference with a good many implications’ (Rogers 1976)
