We all carry hurts and difficulties from our life experiences of upbringing, conditioning and relationships.  We take these with us into our families, workplaces and friendships and they limit our capacity to experience and express who we truly are.

As mature adults we have the capacity to transform and release these hurts and so grow into the fully realised human beings that we are.  Counselling, mentoring, spiritual direction and healing can work at the physical, emotional, sexual and spiritual levels.  There are many different approaches including:

• Deep listening without judgement to the stories and dramas of our lives, to discern the truth from all that we have created and gain an inner understanding
• Being helped to find our inner guide through silence, meditation, reflection, insight and awareness of the present moment
• Re-awakening to the true essence of our physical bodies through healing and body work
• Allowing grace to enter into us and guide our lives.

When we are ready to step into such possibility, a path opens before us and gives us the opportunity of living from a different perspective.   Spiritual counselling, mentoring or direction can be particularly helpful in situations such as:

• Personal trauma and major life changes associated with emotions, relationships or work
• Finding or re-establishing a sense of direction in life
• Bereavement or grief
• Depression, low self-esteem or persistent illness

Such counselling is beyond the intellectual and emotional dimensions, although these are very likely to be transformed.  It can change the way in which we experience our lives.  Physical healing is experienced through our body energies.  Healing at all levels will often connect into deeper inner energies.  Awakening to our own inner consciousness can lead to a transformation of our experience of life. 

As well as counselling, mentoring and spiritual direction, I provide supervision to other people working with clients in therapeutic, health or social care settings.

I am based in Keswick, Cumbria and can arrange to meet with you in a space of peace and quiet for reflection and growth.  Please contact me in confidence if you would like to explore any aspect of these services further or if you would like to meet with me.  After an initial face-to-face appointment, I am able to arrange some follow-up sessions by telephone or Skype if this is more convenient.
