About the Style of Therapy

At Psychology and Living we use the principles of experiential learning in all interactions with clients. This leads to Person Centered Therapy and essentially means that together we discover underlying issues; work on acknowledging these; release what needs to be released; and then re-skill ourselves with more effective approaches. We appreciate that it can be tough being a human being so integral to the processes we use is learning to be gentler with ourselves and others.

At Psychology and Living clients are co-experimenters with equal responsibility. You can expect to leave consultations with plans of action, strategies to practice, and processes for reviewing your practice. You can expect that each consultation will have a plan - that is a design for the learning environment. However because complex interactions that occur within consultations are often unpredictable, the plan may be modified, or even completely redesigned, in response to your individual circumstance. If you have an honest intention and are committed to doing the work, you will certainly improve.
