More about Me
Although this is all about you, there might be some information you need about me to make an informed decision.
My background is in industry, and I worked in senior management for several years. I mention this because I understand how big organisations tick, which might be helpful to you should you need to talk about your experiences at work. I’m also good at corporate governance which means I run my psychotherapy practice with due regard to all the legislative and professional regulations which are there to keep your safe.
I began retraining in the behavioural sciences in 2004, when I began a Psychology Masters Degree conversion course in tandem with a Psychotherapy MA training. My Psychology degree blossomed into a PhD and I began researching eating behaviours and teaching in academia whilst I trained as a Health Psychologist. I qualified as a Certified Transactional Analyst and UKCP registered psychotherapist in 2013.
In 2016 I saw a gap in my training in terms of properly understanding how our bodies respond to stress, distress and trauma. I therefore took an additional training in Somatic Trauma Therapy with Babette Rothschild. The reason I mention Babette by name is that she wrote one of the seminal books on working safely with trauma. If you’d like to read it there’s a link on the XXX page.
Jobs I’ve done which relate to my toolkit now:
Non Executive Director, NHS Hospitals Trust
Teacher, Undergraduate Psychology BSc. (Hons)
Practice Counsellor, GP Practice
Counsellor, Mental Health Charity
Psychotherapist in Private Practice
Mission
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
