Counselling & Therapy
Most of us have difficulty to really value and appreciate ourselves. We tend to either feel undervalued, have low self-esteem, or we go to the opposite end and overvalue ourselves.
Our sense of value is often dependent on the outside; on others appreciation, criticism or blame. On the inside we may often feel unworthy or "attacked" by others or our own self doubt.
It is a collaborative process with you at the centre and the therapist facilitating an alternative awareness of the difficulties and issues you are struggling with.
It is a process to get a better understanding and to make changes for yourself in relation to the difficulties you are experiencing. By exploring the issues involved with a therapist, emotional and behavioural patterns can be seen and understood.

Psychosynthesis
Psychosynthesis is a comprehensive approach to helping the individual to deal with dilemmas, conflicts and patterns of behaviours which inhibit or prevent living life in meaningful and fulfilling ways.
Dr, Roberto Assagioli was an Italian psychologist, psychiatrist and philosopher. What set him apart from his contemporaries was his belief in the existence of Self, and the particular methods devised to help a person discover their true essence.
Self (our unique essence) is the source of wisdom and guidance, which we are largely unconscious of as we go about our busy lives. Our tendency to rationalise and value the intellect means we often neglect or dismiss our intuitive deeper self, nipping in the bud any creative forces that may push for recognition and expression. This may lead to all sorts of feelings, thoughts and behaviours. Depression and/or anxiety become the symptoms, which often bring the individual into therapy
There may also be past and present experiences that need to be addressed, such as relationship difficulties, but it is a given that what is at work is a deeper self.
Psychosynthesis attempts to understand suffering from a multi - dimensional perspective. This form of therapy is for people who are dealing with a crisis of some sort or changes in their lives.
