About me and my therapy practice
I work from an integrational perspective as a Supervisor and counsellor.- what that really means is I use different counselling modalities/ insights e.g. CBT. GESTALT, CREATIVE THERAPIES e.g. SANDTRAY WORK , ART THERAPIES, PSYCHODYNAMIC, SOLUTION FOCUSED APPROACH and PERSON CENTRED APPROACH in order to look at their client work from different perspectives - to give a SUPERVISEE(student or qualified) more scope in exploring their ORGANISATIONAL/ PRIVATE PRACTICE.
