My name is Steve,
I hold a diploma in Person-Centred Counselling. I have worked
as a volunteer counsellor for two local counselling agencies.
My approach is based upon the Person-Centred model of counselling which
was developed by Carl Rogers. Whilst I passionately believe in this approach
I
also believe that one size does not fit all, we are all individuals and I
may
occasionally use techniques from another counselling model to suit you as an
individual.
I am a member of the British
Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy
(www.bacp.co.uk) who are my governing body and as such I am bound by their
ethical framework. I am fully insured, DBS checked, attend regular
supervision,
and also a member of the Hampshire Association of Counselling and
Psychotherapy( www.hacp.co.uk).
I attend various workshops focusing on
such things as working with adult transgender clients and suicide so that I
can
more fully understand these issues and how they impact upon people and
those close to them.
