Transpersonal Counselling in Newcastle upon Tyne

Through my MSc research in this area, I’ve developed a unique Transpersonal perspective that I also bring to my work.
Hello - I'm Michael Blades, an Integrative, Relational Psychotherapist and full member of the UCKP and member of the BACP (MBACP). I understand how life can leave a lasting impression on how we come to think and feel about ourselves as adults. Psychotherapy can help you change your sense of self and your relationships with others and the world. I often work with motivated and courageous clients who realise they are not just the stories they have come to believe about themselves - and, in time, reconnect with a more profound sense of who they are and have meaning in their lives.

As a relationally trained therapist, I am skilled in helping people to improve their self-esteem, to have more satisfying relationships with themselves and others and to find meaning in their lives.

I offer a soulful approach to therapy grounded in the latest psychological theory. Often, it may seem that much of modern psychological therapy merely ruffles and reorganises the surface of the things that trouble us, seeing people who are experiencing psychological suffering as complex machines to which we can apply a set psychological theories. In contrast, after 20years of working as a psychological therapist, I believe it's more appropriate to approach clients as 'souls' in need of hearing, healing, connection, meaning, and renewal.

Feeling as though you have lost something of yourself is a lonely and disorientating place to be. A recent experience such as a relationship problem, work related stress, illness, or a bereavement may have brought you to this place, or a negative experience in your past may have contributed to you feeling this way throughout life. Working through these things, and through any symptoms of anxiety, depression, anger, shame, or grief, can help you feel more whole, and to make changes for the future.

If you are here, you may be experiencing emotional difficulties that are leaving you feeling anxious, stuck or confused. Perhaps you are questioning aspects of your life, trying to solve the puzzle of why you are who you are. Or maybe you wish to feel happier, free'er and more settled in yourself, your choices and your relationships. You may not be able to put your finger on why you’re here, and that's okay too. I believe that to change, we must feel truly seen and listened to. I support my clients by providing a healing space to reflect and begin to address the difficulties and deeper questions they are facing in their lives.

I work with EMDR and Attachment theorey, CBT and Transpersonal strategies which fit the needs with the least amount of time and financial drain.
I have a gentle manner but I am able to understand problems. I often work with things other therapists have not been able to help completely and have therapeutic solutions to the most challenging issues. I help you understand how the past impacted you. I use a structured approach so you create therapeutic goals. TRAUMA therapy can be very helpful. RELATIONSHIP COUNSELLING -both partners spend time express their point of view and a joint agreement on how to progress the therapy. I usually set “homework” for both individuals and couples to work on between sessions. DISCOUNTS for block bookings of 5 get 6th session review free.

Transpersonal Counsellors
How does transpersonal therapy work?
Transpersonal therapy focuses on a patient’s spirituality and meaning in life. Transpersonal therapists might borrow from Eastern traditions as well as Western psychology. They may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork to produce altered states of consciousness. The therapist helps the patient to access their consciousness and spirituality to work through difficult mental states.
How long does transpersonal therapy last?
Because the goal is to understand a person as a whole, including their spirituality, treatment can range from months to a year or beyond. While patients learn the philosophy behind transpersonal therapy during treatment, they can also practice its principles throughout life after therapy sessions have ended.
Is transpersonal therapy effective?
Patients have found success with transpersonal therapy; this method is useful in improving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, fears, relationship problems, and other concerns. Improvements in problem areas can continue even after transpersonal therapy ends, as individuals can utilise the tools they’ve learned during treatment sessions.
What are the limitations of transpersonal therapy?
There is some research on the effectiveness of transpersonal therapy, but empirical support for this therapy approach is sparse. It does not have the robust evidence base of other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy.
