Only with knowing yourself as you are and the root of your distress can you make positive changes. Person-centred therapy is a talking therapy based on the view that everyone has the capacity and underlying desire for personal growth, given the right conditions.As a therapist, I embody and offer such conditions of unconditional positive regard, empathy, and congruence in order to help you come to terms with any negative or overwhelming feelings and to change, develop, and grow in accordance with the best interests of yourself. Being valued as a person without the fear of judgement, in a therapeutic environment, can help you see who you are, fully and honestly, and reconnect with the core of your personal identity, out of which positive growth can occur. Through therapy, your self-actualising tendency can be kindled and nurtured into a fully realised personality which is accurate to, and honours, your ideal-self.I am someone who listens to your story, your history, and everything you have done or gone through. I facilitate the experience of ‘therapeutic presence’. This is deep empathic listening, non-judgmental acceptance, and genuineness. Together, we explore whatever seems most important in answering this question: How will I know that therapy will have made a difference for me?I am a person-centred therapist which means that an integral part of our work together will be the development of a therapeutic alliance wherein we explore your thoughts, feelings, and everything in between so that you can have a full and honest understanding of yourself. You might feel you have no one to talk to even with people all around you. Supportive family and friends are great, yet it is difficult to talk to loved ones about feeling anxious or being depressed as it is these people that often try and ‘fix’ you or don’t acknowledge that you are struggling. You may find it easier to talk about familial, personal, or relationship issues with an independent professional therapist.
