I have over 25 years' experience delivering therapy and coaching for individuals and couples to overcome problems and achieve goals. I help individuals to overcome emotional problems, including anxiety, trauma (PTSD), relationship issues, people pleasing and lack of assertiveness, addiction, OCD, eating issues, and depression. I help couples to transform their communication so that they can speak and listen without defensiveness, and heal past resentments.
In brief, I will help you to clarify your goals; identify what it is within you that’s blocking you; find the origins of the problem in your biography; and address the problem at its origins to bring permanent resolution.
This person-centred therapy will enable you fully to overcome your problem, not simply to understand yourself better or manage the manage problem, so that you can achieve your goals.
The therapies I use include Relearning Therapy, to identify and resolve the biographical origins of problems; EMDR for PTSD; NLP and hypnosis; Nonviolent Communication; and energy Kinesiology.
Most people achieve complete resolution of the problem in three to seven sessions, but some people need more time.
I have published two books: The Therapist Within You (2009) and Relearning Therapy (2019, 2023). Relearning Therapy explains my method to find the origins of a therapeutic problem in the person's biography and resolve it permanently through relearning the experience.
Born in Kenya, I spent much of my childhood in the Caribbean. I have four children (two grown up sons and two teenage daughters). My interest in the unconscious and motivation of human behaviour started age 11 when I began hypnotizing people. I enjoy working with people of any background, race or orientation. I have worked with well-known persons; and in Tamil Nadu with tsunami survivors; with young people from South African townships; and with refugees in BIOT and Rwanda.
