London - South West > Wimbledon > CR : 4 > Richard Lawton Name:   Richard Lawton    I practise at:   Old Street, London EC1 and at:   Wimbledon, London CR4   Website:   http://www.richardlawton.net/     Phone:   07502 136692 /0845 094 4505      Prof. membership:   UKAHPP  -  UK Association of Humanistic Psychology Practitioners   I use an integrative approach; this means that different models of therapy are used together creatively, making a unique blend for each individual client. My work is based on Postural Integration, a powerful tool for enabling you to increase your sense of well-being, your capacity to feel, your ability to express, your self-awareness and consciousness. The heart of this is deep tissue manipulation to release body-armouring, but involves a rich mix of: counselling to help you through immediate problems; breathwork, movement and reflective body focusing to increase your bodily self-awareness and felt sense of issues; psychotherapy, Gestalt therapy and psychodrama (role play) to address deep patterning; dreamwork; art therapy and creative writing. How these supportive approaches are woven into a session will be determined by you. We are all unique individuals, with differing wants, needs, likes, dislikes: I do not try to make you conform to some theoretical idea of what a client 'should' be or do, or what 'should' happen in a session. My role is to offer you creative possibilities to explore yourself in whatever way feels most productive or relevant at any given time - and always within safe and appropriate boundaries. The goal is to help you become more aware of what you hold in both your mind and your body and the connections between them, and to bring your whole self into greater harmony. The goal is to give you more room to breathe, more space to be. The goal is to empower you. Qualifications & Training I am a qualified psychotherapeutic Deep Bodywork practitioner (Entelia Institute for Creative Bodywork) and a certified Postural Integrator (ICRI/ICPIT). Fees I work on the basis of ability to pay, so offer reduced fees for those on lower incomes and for long-term commitments. If you feel I am the right therapist for you, then I am sure we can agree a price.
