I often use integrative counselling drawing from Humanistic and Existential approaches. This means my work is tailored to client specific need and a not a one-size-fits-all method. I give client space to explore thoughts, emotions, and patterns in a safe, confidential setting. Some client might choose Hypnotherapy as that can help accessing the subconscious, supporting change around.
