*I am an Integrative Counsellor, which is a confusing title. It means I use a mix of different Models of Counselling. I think the best way to explain is that it is like having many ingredients to make a cake and choosing the best ones for the job.
I am mostly person-centred but using the transference of Freud. I also use Gestalt and CBT and Existential Therapies and Interpersonal Therapy, I am also quite Solution Focussed.
I also feel that the Bereavement challenges are probably at the core of most of the Clients I work with. That is, not only the loss of someone by death, but in relationships, jobs, loss of confidence, self -esteem etc. I also work with clients with gender issues and their families.
I have worked a great deal with clients and their families with addiction challenges.
In these times we perhaps all need a listening non-judgmental ear.
I have recently trained with the Metanoia Institute for Person- Centred Experiential Counselling for Depression which has enhanced my practice.
