Therapy
Therapy is time set aside by you and the therapist to look at what has brought you to therapy. This may include talking about life events (past and present), feelings, emotions, relationships, ways of thinking and patterns of behaviour.
I will do my best to help you to look at your issues and identify the right course of action for you, either to help you resolve your difficulties or help you find ways of coping.
Talking about these things may take time, and will not necessarily all be included in one session. The number of sessions offered may be limited, so it is best to ask about this in advance. For example, brief therapy or short term therapy might provide a maximum of 6, 8, 12 or 16 sessions.
There are a number of types of therapy available to you. For example, Psychoanalytical, Psychodynamic and Hypnotherapy approaches. In addition, Humanistic Therapies involving Existential, Gestalt, Solution-Focused and Transactional Analysis. You may also feel you need therapy, involving members of your family.

Eating Disorders
Food is one of the many mediums through which our emotions and distress can be expressed, so you may have a very difficult relationship with food which impacts on your mental health, but doesn't fit into any of the current categories of diagnosis. It's also possible to experience more than one eating disorder, or to experience some symptoms from each disorder.
Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. With my coaching sessions, you’ll learn about acceptance and how to exert your power of choice over whatever life may throw at you.

Life Coaching
There’s a reason that life coaching is the second-fastest growing profession in the world – because it works for people. The true life coach definition is a committed professional who has the right training and tools to help you achieve any goal. Few people can honestly say that they are already performing at the top of their game each and every day. If you are ready to truly maximize your human potential, and take your life to the next level, then it’s time to seek out a life coach.
All kinds of people use life coaches, including actors, business leaders, creatives, entrepreneurs, executives, homemakers, managers, professionals, small business owners and start-up pioneers. These people all identify a gap between where they are and where they want to be, and turn to coaching when they want help reaching their goals. When you ask yourself what is a life coach and why should I work with one, you’re asking yourself why you’d want to unlock an extraordinary life.

Clinical Supervision
At the most basic of levels, supervision means to oversee another individual. I establish this by providing a safe environment that allows the supervisees to be vulnerable and to grow through learning about themselves and themselves as professional counsellors, leaving them feeling free to disclose areas of difficulty and/or dilemmas within their clinical practice.
Being a clinical supervisor for the past twenty years has been rewarding and insightful. There is still much more to be experienced and much more to learn during this process.
