I listen.
And if you think listening needs no training, think again. It is underpinned by three decades of studying, skill building and experience. I have a Masters degree in Psychology after which I began training to be a counsellor and have never stopped my professional development.
And yet, this has not been the most important aspect of my training, for I have spent years freeing myself from diagnosing, and labeling. I meet people, not conditions that need fixing. This allows me to value you as a unique person and understand your hopes and strengths. Together we will put together a ‘toolbox’ of insights and skills that you can use for your future.
Therefore, I am proud to be a listener. If I do this right, it can be transformative for you.
As Carl Jung said:-
“Learn your theories as well as you can, but put them aside when you touch the miracle of the living soul.”
