Transpersonal Counsellor and Psychotherapist

Returning Home to Yourself...

Transpersonal Counselling is a holistic, client-centered approach that uses a vast array of techniques to help individuals contact their deep inner wisdom and new personal resources. While other psychological approaches focus on the mind as a tool for change, the Transpersonal spans across mind, body and spirit to move towards a deep sense of personal wholeness and expanded possibilities.

I offer a deep honouring of your journey. Through this honouring, profound healing can unfold, opening the possibility for you to contact your true sense of Self. As such, I specialise in matters of identity and personal truth.

 

My work is based in healing. To get there, I use my body as a navigational tool to listen to you fully. The counseling practice that I use assumes that all the hurts, adversities and triumphs in your life have informed your way of being in the world. It also assumes that these ways of being hold the key to their resolution and to your healing.


By honouring the totality of your being, I create a safe space for you to journey into those ways of being and into different parts of your Self that have been disowned or cast aside. Gradually we recuperate the wisdom of those parts so that ‘wholeness’ can take on a whole new meaning in your life, along with self-awareness, understanding and a renewed sense of trust in yourself to navigate through your life with gentleness and joy.


During our sessions together we may use various techniques of enquiry such as tuning into the body’s wisdom (‘focusing’), two chair work, mindfulness, symbol exploration and practices of embodiment to help you access the wisdom that lies deep within you.

Together we create the opportunity for you to flourish.
