Speaking Your Mind at Soul Serenity

Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy is a short-term form of psychotherapy that helps you identify self-defeating thoughts and feelings, challenge the rationality of those feelings, and replace them with healthier, more productive beliefs. REBT focuses mostly on the present time to help you understand how unhealthy thoughts and beliefs can create emotional distress, this then leads to unhealthy actions and behaviours which interfere or block your life goals. Once identified and understood, negative thoughts and actions can be changed and replaced with positive and more productive behaviour, allowing you to develop more successful personal and professional relationships.



REBT can help you overcome negative emotions such as anxiety, depression, guilt, trauma or inappropriate anger. This approach is also used to help change stressful, self-defeating behaviours and bad habits that prevent you from reaching and achieving your goals.



To help you manage and overcome difficulties I will work with you to identify the beliefs and rigid thought patterns that are holding you hostage. Through a variety of mental exercises, you will learn how to reduce your negative thoughts and responses, replacing them with healthier, more constructive and self-accepting thoughts. Together we will set new life targets to help you achieve your goals.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming is the practice of understanding how people organise their thinking, feeling language and behaviour to act the way we do. NLP is used for personal development and success, to transform lives for the better.


NEURO - Each individual has established their own unique mental filtering system for processing the millions of bits of data being absorbed through the senses. The first mental map of the world is constituted of internal images; sound, tactile awareness, internal sensations, tastes and smells that form as result of the neurological filtering process.

LINGUISTIC - We then assign personal meaning to the information being received from the world outside. We form our second mental map by assigning languages to the internal images, sounds and feelings, tastes and smells, thus forming everyday conscious awareness.

PROGRAMMING - The behavioural response that occurs as a result of neurological filtering processes and subsequent linguistic map.


By re-mapping the mind, positive changes begin, lifestyle transformations take place, enabling success in many aspects of a persons life.

If you are ready to heal past wounds, stop self-sabotage and finally see your life goals manifest, or whether you want to be more confident, nurture self-love, have better relationships, start your own business, have a fulfilling career, improve your health or attract financial abundance, together we will transform any negative thoughts in to a positive mindset. I will also guide you with goal setting and encourage you to take the external steps needed to move you towards your desires so you can create a more fulfilling and happier life.

Counselling is helping you find ways to deal with emotional issues.

I can help you gain a better understanding of your feelings and thought processes, and find your own solutions to problems. I will never tell you what to do, instead I will guide you and offer support.

You may be offered a single session of counselling, or I may recommend a short course of sessions over a few weeks or months.
It can take a number of sessions before you start to see progress, but you should gradually start to feel better as the session unfold.

Relationship therapy is designed for couples to help them navigate and resolve problems as a team. Relationship therapy can help you and your partner maintain your romantic connection by solving interpersonal conflicts big and small.

While some couples may see a relationship therapist in a preventative nature, to keep their relationship on track, most couples see a relationship therapist when things have gone majorly askew.

Relationship therapists can help couples navigate difficult relationship situations like communication problems, conflict management problems, problems related to finances and infidelity to name a few.

Relationship therapy is becoming more and more common these days as couples realise that they really can’t handle their relationship problems all by themselves.
Realising this is an important first step, and it’s important to know that it doesn't mean that you are admitting defeat in any way!
It can be very difficult to navigate the peaks and valleys of a relationship, in addition to problems that are unique to romantic relationships.

Turning to a couples therapist that has the training to help you navigate these things is often the best thing you can do to improve or even save your relationship. Relationship therapy is about providing you and your partner with the skills to navigate current and future problems in effective and kind ways, so that your relationship stays strong and lasts the test of time.

Reiki, pronounced 'Ray-Key', is a Japanese healing system discovered in the early 1900's by a Japanese Buddhist monk called Mikao Usui.
​
Reiki means 'Universal life-force energy'. When you are connected to this loving energy during a Reiki treatment it gently flows through you initiating your body's own natural ability to heal itself and re-balance. Reiki releases energy blockages and allows your life-force to flow freely.
​
There are no contraindications for Reiki so this treatment is suitable for everyone including pregnant women, children, babies and even animals.

During a treatment, you will lie fully clothed on a comfortable therapy couch whilst I place my hands above or on, major energy centres along the body called Chakras. There are seven key Chakra energy points along the body which govern major organs, glands and emotions in the area where they are based.

The healing energy of Reiki is effective with most physical, mental, emotional and spiritual problems.
These include:
Pain relief
Stress
Anxiety
Depression
Insomnia
Feeling stuck in any area of your life
Low self-esteem
Health issues or illness

Some clients feel some relief after just one session, others may need several sessions for the Reiki energy to do its work and to see improvement of deeper issues.

Clients enjoy the relaxation and the calmness so much that some like to book regular sessions for their general wellbeing. Regular Reiki helps promote good sleeping patterns, as well as happy and fresh feelings.
