What is 'Therapy'?

 

Psychological Therapy has been my main approach as a Clinical Psychologist based in the NHS (1973 - 1986).

 

These publications related to this period, during which time I completed my PhD (Leicester University).

 

I have been very fortunate to meet and talk to a large number of people, both adults and children about their outlook on life and things they found difficult and distressing. Practice, research, feedback and my own life experience has shown me that aa number of approaches help, including careful genuine listening, cognitive-behavioural, solution-focused problem solving and mindfulness, and committing my time and availability to others.
