Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you
GEORGE BERNARD SHAW
I work with people, not problems and diagnoses. There is always a solution or a way out of a problem. The main focus will be on you, what you are experiencing, and what you want rather than what the prescribed labels dictate.
For example, Mavis is showing symptoms that relate to depression; the diagnosis of depression is not scientific; it is an opinion, albeit it is a clinical opinion. The diagnostic opinion tells me nothing about you and your life experiences.
I am not dismissive of labels-psychological diagnoses. They can be helpful in some circumstances.
You are more than your symptoms;
let’s get curious about you as a human being
I will focus on you and pay attention to what emerges in our space, with an anchor towards a future destination. We will excavate how you are keeping yourself stuck.
To walk alongside you, I must understand your current model of reality and the living myth that holds you back. I will ask many questions. Sometimes, I can be direct, and other times, I can be gentle. I will point out underlying patterns and processes that emerge during our sessions.
We will upgrade your inner maps so that navigating various maps of reality becomes second nature,
“Storytelling is at the heart of life... In finding our own story, we assemble all the parts of ourselves. Whatever kind of mess we have made of it, we can somehow see the totality of who we are and recognize how our blunderings are related. We can own what we did and value who we are, not because of the outcome, but because of the soul story that propelled us”
MARION WOODMAN
Have you tried every therapy available and still feel lost?
Have you been turned away when seeking help and feel silenced, dismissed, or unseen?
Have the social media experts with winning formulas to success failed you?
Do you feel like a lost cause?
Do you just need to talk?
Spiritual self-care underpins this process from within and is crucial to getting what you want.
I have extensive experience working with a wide range of common mental issues, such as Anxiety, low self-esteem, Depression, PTSD, Phobias, OCDS, and Trauma. I have a strong reputation for helping people with complex issues and those who have been refused therapy from traditional services due to labels from The Mental Health Services. I work with people long-term and short-term, depending on their needs and journey.
