| Sue Paton Psychotherapist, Counsellor |
| Psychotherapy can provide a new model of what a close relationship can be; it can teach you to reflect on feelings, events and patterns of your own behaviour in a way that you have been unable to before; it can compensate to some degree for nurturing experiences you never had as a child; it can be an opportunity to face some unpleasant facts about how you really operate in relationships; it can offer a safe haven where feelings of shame no longer present a terrible barrier to self-exploration. |

| Psychological well-being is essential to one's health and happiness. My philosophy is that everybody can experience an improvement in their happiness and well-being if they have the appropriate tools and strategies to manage their mood and individual life circumstances. |

| David White Psychotherapist |
| I have learnt that effective therapy must be a co-operative venture, involving mutual respect, good will and hard work. Those who enter into it half heartedly, do not do particularly well. Good therapy takes as long as it takes and cannot be hurried to suit anyone’s personal agendas. Having said this, I have seen that those who are prepared to put in the hard yards, can do extremely well in altering their circumstances, feelings and attitudes and in coming to terms with what they cannot alter. |
