My Approach-How I work

My approach is dynamic, empathic, and relational using energy, regression and psychodrama integrating the Post Induction Therapy model of Pia Mellody, (PIT) and Richard Schwartz model of Internal Family Systems, (IFS). Combined with years working with Mandy Saligari at Charter Harley Street around Trauma, Mental Health, and Addiction.

I further use my custodial experience at HMP Pentonville and HMP Wandsworth and my own journey of recovery to gain a compassionate and loving understanding of each client who walks through the door.

My own 12-Step programme of recovery and working with Mandy Saligari giving me first class insight into the 15 recognised addictions and the use of Charter’s Vertebrae approach to recovery.

We are all born with love, compassion, a true self until we fear or become afraid due to neglect, abandonment, rejection from years 0-17 which is crucial in order to develop a secure self. We learn from our family of origin in our attachment to self to adapt, minimise, take care of, avoid, just a few examples of the maladaptation’s we develop.

Often, we make the mistake of blaming parents or others for this when understanding repairing this through awareness sets us free from resentment to move forward again with the love and compassion we were born with.
