'Matters of the Heart'
Psychotherapy – Life Coaching - Counselling
Service
For both Men and Women
Sevenoaks, Kent
We all deserve to live happy,
creatively fulfilling lives but most of us suffer from unhappiness,
meaninglessness and varying degrees of depression or anxiety.
From my experience the loss of a significant other, either via a
broken relationship or through bereavement is one of the primary
reasons why people seek help with a therapist/counsellor. |

People cannot cope with the
devastating sense of loss and hope to overcome the powerlessness,
hopelessness and misery that has overtaken their lives. It is a
mistake to underestimate the shattering impact the loss of a
relationship can cause, resulting in high anxiety and depression.
Mental confusion, weight loss, and panic attacks. The inability to
continue working and losing the impetus to participate with life.
Most people benefit hugely from Counselling or Therapy and find
answers within themselves that help them overcome/understand the
reasons for their unhappiness and despair or lack of motivation in
their lives.
Having studied in various
fields of Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, I have taken a universal
approach to my work combining Jungian, Lacanian, CBT (Cognitive
Behavioural Therapy) EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and
Reprocessing, Humanistic and Psychoanalytic conceptualisations of
the practice of therapy. I have always felt that the
psychoanalytical schools of thought have been hampered by their
‘non-inclusiveness’ and rather than there being one correct method
of psychoanalysis, believe different avenues of psychotherapy can
produce positive results and that the client should guide the way
with what they feel most comfortable with.
My work involves listening to how individuals or couples talk about
their experiences, exploring patterns of relating and helping them
to find autonomy/personal power and motivation within their self.
Freeing them from negative patterns of behaviour. The emphasis is on
the importance of each individual to find their own meaning, values
and inspiration in life.
Following are my areas of
expertise using CBT and other methods of analysis including Brief
Solution Focused Therapy, which is a 4-6 weeks intensive process for
seeking solutions for a specific problem/issue.
