Psychotherapeutic Counselling

 

Person-centred Therapy is about meeting rather than treating! I walk with you as a companion with respect for your individuality and with empathy for your lived experience.

I will offer you a compassionate and holding presence so that you may take the risk to trust who you are and to explore who you can be. My intention is for you to feel safe in making this journey where you can meet challenges such as grief, joy, denial, self-awareness and acceptance.

I do not look for outcomes. I reach for honesty and authenticity in my relationship with you and promise to really listen to what you have to say with no judgement, direction or solutions for dilemmas offered.

 

I believe that with acceptance and support you can find your own answers within yourself; reflection and insight encouraged through this conversation and process. You are the one who best knows you.

"The principle of magic is not to enslave the universe to our individual will. It is to transform the self, to recognise and respond to the limitless opportunities to grow, which are always offered to us." anon

What happens during a session?
The Counsellor listens actively, meaning that they are alert to any nuance in the way you are talking, as well as what you are saying verbally.

 

They do not express opinion or interrupt, influence direction or suggest solutions. They will reflect to you what they are hearing, feeling and seeing and support you at all times.

 

How Many Sessions do I Need?
After an initial discussion, a "contract" between yourself and the Counsellor will be agreed. This defines what you are working on, how often you will meet and for how long initially.

About the Practitioner

I have recently started to work as a person-centred psychotherapeutic counsellor which has been a goal for many years.

I feel that a background in community arts; teaching in special needs education; many and varied jobs; voice work for 30 years and , for the last 18 years, my development as an holistic therapist; reflects the passion I feel for meeting and working with others and exploring the world I live in.

People have always been at the heart of my work and I am grateful for all the opportunities offered to me to meet myself and others with an increasing lightness of spirit and sense of delight.

Currently I aim to complete an Open University degree in creative writing and philosophy. This is purely to nourish me, to indulge my passion for the use of words and creative thinking. To play!

I live with my dog and my dream is for us to walk the Pennine Way. I find the natural world a great source of regeneration, solace, peace, and inspiration and spend much of my time gazing, walking and being there.

Rosie also practices:

Integrated Massage, Sound Healing and Voice Work.

She also runs a meditation course at Healing Hands which will begin again on 29th September 2009 and run for 8 weeks. You can contact us on 01484 425236 for details.
