About Me I completed my B.A in Person Centred Counselling at The University of Cumbria in 2008
I graduated from The Lakeland College of Homeopathy in 1998,
I finished my diploma in counselling in 2006 and worked at GP,s surgerys and Lancaster Prison.
I first went to see a Homeopath when my daughter was just one and a half. She had suffered a constantly runny nose and repeated throat infections which was disconcerting for me. I was reluctant to give her antibiotics, particularly at such a young age, but couldn't just leave her untreated.
It was at this time, that I decided to take her to see a Homeopath. I was extremely impressed with the results, for the first time in months she had returned to a happy well balanced child once more .
Since then I have been using Homeopathy on a daily basis, to treat adults and children with excellent outcomes.
Nowadays, I am always more and more amazed at the results that can be acheived with the use of Homeopathic Remedies, and never fail to be fascinated by it.
Person Centered CounsellingWhat inspired me to first become interested in Person Centred Therapy was the belief held by Person Centred Therapists that the starting point is that both the therapist and client are trust worthy.
This trust lies in the belief that everyone has an inherent instinct to move towards growth of inherent potential, the belief that despite adverse conditions and experiences people instinctively struggle towards doing the best that they can be, towards becoming the person that they are meant to be to, fulfill the highest good.
The therapist’s task is to create the best possible conditions for the actualizing tendency to be fulfilled.
Carl Rogers developed this approach during the1 950’s and the rest of his life. A person centred therapist holds core conditions three of which are Empathy, which means tuning in to the client, getting in to the clients frame of reference and getting an understanding of how they are feeling.
Unconditional Positive Regard which means prizing the person and holding them in esteem regardless of what actions they may have taken, this means separating out the actions from the person.
The third condition is Congruence which means that the therapist is open and transparent to the client and relates with honesty as well as respect.
The Person Centred Approach involves listening and ‘tuning in’, rather than imposing, and a willingness to enter into the life of another human being as an honoured and respected guest not as an invader or analyser.
Not judging or criticizing but being alongside helping you to find ways forward.
Testimonials"I can't thank you enough for your help. I feel so much better! I noted that despite work being objectivly as irritating as ever, I was far more mellow about it. I seem to be able to accept the chaos and just plan to avoid it impacting adversly on my work - This is a real blessing. Also the feeling of being totally out of energy in the afternoon? That has disappeared entirely."
Mrs H, Lincs
