My training was in Gestalt Therapy, which is still to me the original ‘integrative’ approach. It integrates heart, head and body through deepening our awareness and understanding of our feelings, helping us to understanding how our past with its unreconciled trauma still configures our present relationship to our lives, along with importantly developing awareness of our body and its essential role in healing and integrating ourselves. The aim is to suport you in the two essential ways we relate to our lives, firstly through helping you to increase your self-awareness and self-understanding and self-compsssion. Secondly through supporting you to understand that it has to be your choice to face and take ever greater responsibility for yourself. The journey is away from being a victim (which we all are, to some extent) towards a more choiceful life. This needs us to integrate our heart, head and body in the holistic process of our healing and development, towards becoming our “authentic” selves. From there we can understand our purpose and the meaning of our lives.
