Abstract
I work in private practice as a transpersonal psychotherapist, having studied in London, UK at the CCPE on the advanced transpersonal Psychotherapy diploma course.Prior to this I had trained as a Humanistic counsellor, at Roehampton Institute, and have seen a variety of clients since 1987. I began by working voluntarily for a Bereavement project as well as counselling foreign students in the College where I was teaching English. Later I taught Counselling at the same college, for five years, continuing to see clients at home in private practice. Nowadays, I see clients who self refer for Breathwork, and receive referrals from Employee assistance providers, of business employees for short term crisis counselling. Other clients take therapy as part of their counselling courses. My website and my membership of professional organisations brings me referrals.
