Counselling
I work with straight, gay and bisexual or bicurious men.
My counselling approach varies depending upon who I'm working with and what the circumstances are.
However, I aim first and foremost to understand your situation and to look at possible causes, which may not be immediately visible. I also seek to be solution oriented in my work. This means that by asking questions, I will guide you towards gaining clearer perspectives to situations which may have become confused or blocked; by doing this options become more apparent.
If past experiences are still having an impact on current situations, I believe it can be helpful to look back at family history. This can lead to a greater understanding of how patterns of behaviour can evolve, and how they can be changed to avoid repetition. This needs to be done with care and understanding.
Sometimes it can simply helpful to have someone outside of friends and family, someone neutral to talk to, to help untangle emotions.
With the client's permission, I sometimes use hypnosis.
Confidentiality is, of course, an important part of my work.
