I have over 20 years' experience as a psychotherapist and coach,
working with people from all walks of life who wish to live well,
productive and happy lives.
My
particular focus has been working with people in transition from one
stage of life to another, those simply seeking a place to talk through
to a new understanding of themselves and where they are going in life,
and people who feel trapped by illness.
My
clients find me a calm and accepting person to talk to, a person who
takes them seriously, and I work with humour when appropriate. In
my long experience of working with people I have found that when we
are willing to explore who we really are, what we really value, and
what we really want in life for ourselves and those we love, then
we can achieve well-being.
I
have had many years of training in a variety of therapeutic approaches,
including the study of the relationship between the mind and the body.
I have learned a great deal, including from my own life challenges,
all of which has informed how I work with people. These studies and
experiences have led me to develop SBT, inspired by the very latest
research into psychobiology, neuro-immunology, and other successful
mind-body approaches to well-being.
Until
I retired from full-time work 4 years ago, I was an accredited and
registered psychotherapist. I have been coaching since 1991 and am
now an accredited coach, mentor, trainer, and wellness practitioner
working part-time.
When
you are ready to take some challenging and possibly bold steps to
get well again, then I am ready to support and encourage you to find
the strength and skills you need to do so. You will find in SBT an
approach to your symptoms that is truly liberating and will change
your life for the better.
