About me and my therapy practice
My name is Peter and I'm an analytically-trained humanistic, integrative psychodynamic counsellor and have been operating my own private practice for three years.
鈥
I'm a therapist and a counsellor, and above all I'm a human being who has retrained into this role to offer others that which helped me become aware of the state of my own existence and turn towards a more constructive and balanced emotional path.
鈥
All are welcome to come and talk about anything from feeling a little off-balance in one's feelings, all the way up to (but not including) having a clinically diagnosable mental health illness.
Practice description
The foundation of my approach is humanistic, integrated with different elements of evidence-based psychotherapeutic disciplines. A humanistic approach to therapy asserts that all humans are unique, with potential for continued growth in love, fulfilment, self-worth and autonomy. How we have experienced the world so far, our past relationships and our childhood, all shape how we interpret the world today.
I draw on other approaches that have been shown to help people break patterns and uncover perspectives that help us to drive change. I use techniques from different 鈥渟chools鈥 and models such as CBT, Gestalt and short-term psychodynamic therapy. I value the role that psychoeducation plays in therapy 鈥 openly sharing models and frameworks with clients rather than perpetuating a sense of mystery around the process.
