FREE CONSULTATION: I offer a free one to one consultation to discuss and explore appropriate ways forward for each client. I am a qualified and experienced Person-Centred Counsellor, a Psychotherapist and a Hypnotherapist, offering counselling and support to individuals and couples of all ages, covering a wide range of issues. My many years of academic and clinical experiences have led me to believe that the most effective form of counselling is the person-centred methodology, where the 'whole' person is considered in order to understand their personal actions, thoughts and behaviours. We know that moving forward and 'wholeness' are the keys to an enjoyable life, and my passion for humanistic philosophy enables me to empathetically help others understand their past, experience their present and realise their future. I am the founder of a private practice in Colchester - The mind, body and soul - where I am fully committed to helping others enhance and enrich their lives in order to live them more fully. The intention and purpose of The mind, body and soul is to provide the highest quality of care and compassion, matched accordingly to each person's individual needs. I fully understand and respect that being stuck; confused and anxious is something that we all experience from time to time, whether it be a psychological or a more physical variation. I therefore work compassionately in a non judgemental, confidential, safe and secure environment, assisting clients to discuss and manage personal concerns and issues, on their journey of self discovery, empowerment and re-newed wholeness. As a skilled professional counsellor, accredited by the University of Essex, I additionally work as a telephone counsellor for a national charity organisation and also as a consultant at several private health centres in Colchester. I am a member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapy (BACP), I use their Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy and am subject to the Professional Conduct Procedure therein. Client confidentiality is absolutely sacred and I am CRB checked (Criminal Records Bureau). Hypnotherapy: Hypnotherapy is often suitable for thoughts and actions you'd like to banish or acquire. I draw on hypnotherapy for clients for instance, who want to Stop Smoking or Lose Weight, and for Self Motivation and Empowerment techniques. Sometimes Regression Therapy is required for emotional states that actually produce physical symptoms, such as phobias. The success rate is excellent according to global studies and my own personal clients' achievements. As a Hypnotherapist, I was privileged to have trained with the renowned Dr John Butler, a highly regarded and successful clinical practitioner and hypnotherapist with over 27 years of proven experience. Dr Butler is the founder of the Hypnotherapy Training Institute of Britain and is an instructor in hypnosurgery, teaching clinical hypnosis applications to surgeons and anaesthetists in courses accredited by the Royal College of Anaesthetists. I also offer an Employer Counselling Service, to compliment an employer's Occupational Health Scheme, and this can be provided either at their place of work or in a neutral environment.
