Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy does more than provide short-term coping strategies. It seeks to uncover the roots of what holds you back. Its goal is to create lasting change. This helps you live a fuller life.

Ajay has explored many fields over the years. He found that Somatic Psychotherapy (Hakomi) is a powerful way to do therapy. This approach connects the mind, emotions, and body. It delves into core life issues deeply and holistically, helping you realize your full potential.

When we start, you will learn coping strategies to give immediate relief form the stresses of life.

We will also explore how core beliefs have formed and how we can change them. People often hold these beliefs since early childhood, so changing them can have a profound and lasting effect. We can be unburdened of things we may have been carrying for years. We can feel a lot lighter and freer.

Why We Use Mindfulness-Based Counselling

Mindfulness helps us to stay centred and grounded in challenging situations, so that we get less triggered.

Using mindfulness we can realise our full potential as people.

This helps us enormously as then we can find much better ways of responding to life’s challenges. Our approach focuses on long-term change. We aim to tackle the root causes that hold you back. This helps you create lasting transformation and live a more fulfilling life.

Mindfulness is easy to learn through counselling. You can explore it more deeply through meditation. At its deepest, mindfulness is about experiencing ourselves fully; it is about realising who we really are.

Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally.

Brief Therapy

Psychotherapy need not go on for years. The goal is that trauma and our limiting beliefs do not have to control our lives. We can solve the problems we face fairly quickly.

Tailoring a session to your needs, Ajay uses a range of proven counselling techniques to support you in your life. This can mean brief therapy, psychological education, or in depth psychotherapy. Often emotions and events can seem overwhelming or we can feel stuck and unable to see a way forward. In brief therapy, you’ll learn practical tools for daily life to navigate challenging situations and emotions.

Quote of the Week

“The great awareness comes slowly, piece by piece. The path of spiritual growth is a path of lifelong learning. The experience of spiritual power is basically a joyful one.”
– M. Scott Peck

Interpretation

“The road less travelled” by M. Scott Peck was a popular book in counselling and personal development circles in the 80s, but still seems fresh now. I first read it in my twenties, but still have it on my bookshelf. I seem to be a life long learner. Even if I’m in a pause between trainings and courses, day to day life is full of lessons that make life a richer experience! I find that the counselling journey takes people into what Peck calls a “piece by piece” awareness of themselves, sometimes slowly, but this can build to profound breakthroughs. Coming out of these breakthroughs we can feel like very different people, and see the world through fresh eyes. We can realise that we have more internal resources than we realised, and that the world (and people) around us is a more supportive and friendly place than we thought! This is literally life changing…

Sharing this journey with someone is one of the great privileges of working as a counsellor and somatic therapist.
