Diane Wynne

Are you feeling sad or unfulfilled?  Life can sometimes leave us feeling stuck, or on our own.  I'm here to help you explore what is happening and to gain insights into the root of the pain. I have a deep understanding of grief, loss and trauma and I have been in therapy myself, so I know how scary it feels to risk opening up to another person. I provide a warm, safe space where you are completely accepted with no judgement at all.

In therapy we look at life events, relationships, patterns of painful situations or anxieties, and how these have impacted on your relationship with yourself. In this way we can identify unhelpful beliefs and thinking patterns that have been holding you back. Bringing all this to conscious awareness enables you to free your authentic self and make the changes in your life that you need.

My Qualifications:

• BSc Honours in Counselling and Psychotherapy 
• Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy 
• Neuro Linguistic Programming Licenced Practitioner 
• Fully accredited member of Â鶹ԭ´´
• Certification in: Dynamic therapy for treating complex trauma, Clinical application of IFS model for treating complex trauma, Healing addiction, Treating OCD, Healing from narcissism

How I Work:

I use a range of approaches, including CBT to counteract unhelpful thoughts and beliefs held consciously, Psychodynamic to detect unconscious beliefs and tap into the wisdom held in the unconscious, and Person Centred which means recognising, honouring and valuing the unique individuality of each person.  Furthermore, I bring my own personal qualities that cannot be learned - intuition, compassion, insight, non-judgemental listening and the ability to connect with others at a deep level.

I take an informal approach, and my therapy room is designed as a sitting room rather than an office or clinical space.  Sessions last an hour, and take the form of a therapeutic conversation - that is to say a conversation in which I can help you identify deep rooted beliefs and patterns of thought which are outside conscious awareness, leading to greater clarity, insight and healing.
