 EXPERIENCE

I have experience of working with Clients who are having difficulty with Stress, Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Depression, Anger, Addiction, Childhood Abuse, Sexual Abuse, Trauma, Intrusive Thoughts, Shame, Relationships, Loss, Bereavement, Health Concerns, Eating Disorders, Domestic Violence, Self-Harm, Change.


I also have experience of working with adults who are beginning to question who they are and what they want from life and those who use counselling as a form of Personal Development.
 
Integrative counselling is a combination of the 3 main theories of counselling:

Person-Centred: I use this theory to build a trusting, empathic, accepting and genuine relationship between myself and my client.  By valuing the client as a person, without judging them, I can help them to learn about and accept who they are.

Psychodynamic theory: I use this theory to help the client to make links between what is going on for them in their current life with past experiences and relationships.  By helping the client to bring unconscious thoughts and feelings into their conscious mind they are able to understand patterns of behaviour and any defence mechanisms they are using.

CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy): I use the theory of CBT to help the client to identify and challenge any self-defeating or irrational beliefs and behaviours.  I will also use CBT theory to help the client to cope with problems such as panic attacks, anxiety and phobias.
