About me
Hi. Are you in need of a safe, neutral space to talk about what you are dealing with? I am an accredited Core Process Psychotherapist working with adults in Box, Wiltshire. I hope that we can meet and talk about working together. Maybe we can begin to understand the main issues affecting you, so you are less overwhelmed, and find ways to improve your daily experience.
Core Process Psychotherapy combines Western psychology and neurobiology with Eastern mindfulness practice. It is a relational style of talk therapy that observes and explores thoughts, emotions, and sensations. In widening our awareness of how we respond to the world, we can learn more about our underlying beliefs, drives, and defensive habits, and see how they shape our lives. We can begin to express ourselves with more clarity and understanding.
