Improving your life,
Overcoming your challenges
Coaching and Psychotherapy
Anxiety, Stress, Depression, OCD, Phobias, Lack of Confidence - ANY challenge of the Mind.
An effective approach to resolving the day to day issues that we all face. Stress and anxiety, if not kept in check, can lead to burnout.
OCD, phobias and lack of confidence can seriously impact on our quality of life when they simply do not have to.
My sessions focus on what your better future looks like, what your unique solutions are.
While our challenges may well be similar, you will have your own specific and unique ways forward - we work together to enable you to discover what they are.
Rather than focussing on your problems, we look towards your better future. When we do this, you are already facing the right direction to move forward in the way you want to.
More than a therapist
A background in Education, Safeguarding and as an Assistant Headteacher means I have dealt for many years with people suffering from a huge range of challenges.
First and foremost among these was Anxiety - often drastically affecting attendance and educational outcomes for the young people involved. This has led me to explore practical and real ways to help not just young people, but all people, face their specific challenges.
When working with you the focus is always on your better future, not the problem itself. Analysing your problem again and again does not move you to where you need to be. If you want to be an expert in your problem then I am not the therapist for you.
How can Mind Solutions help?
Reaching your Goals
You want to make the most of opportunities that come your way and live your life to its fullest potential.
But how?
Overcoming your Obstacles
Psychotherapy, or talking therapy, is a powerful and effective way for you to address the issues that are holding you back.
The therapy that I offer is positive, forward looking and solution focused. I want to help you become an expert in your solutions, not your problems.
For you
Whether you are stressed, anxious, facing life transitions or dealing with uncertainty and change, I can help you move forward.
In your School
As a former Assistant Headteacher I can help work with your pupils and staff to understand the neuroscience of how the brain works, and how to effectively reduce stress and anxiety.
In your Business
I am a seasoned public speaker and can deliver talks / workshops for your company around reducing stress, anxiety and improving performance.
Being a business owner, I tend to get very stressed with workload, and running the day to day things. I store all of this stress then go home and pretend everything is all OK when inside I feel like I'm being consumed by a range of emotions and thoughts.
Seeing and speaking to John helps me deal with this through a range of different techniques to help me 'empty my box'. Once our sessions are finished, the weight lifted feels amazing. I would recommend anyone dealing with stress to book in for a session to help them unload their thoughts and help themselves to ease the pressure of everyday life. Thank you
John was amazing from start to finish. I had a consultation with John at first to see if it was something I was going to be comfortable doing. I struggled with keeping a positive outlook and this is something that John helped me with.
Because of John, and some hard work from me, I am looking at things with a better attitude and my life is going in all sorts of directions. I could not recommend John enough and I am thankful to him for all of his help.
