New Yallom Group starting


New Group- Starting this week. Yallom process group. Fantastic way to increase your communication and relational skills!

I have loved and hated at moments being part of a Yallom style process group. The unique opportunity to be in real time and receive honest feedback about how you are experienced by others. This in the moment feedback in a group setting, allows you the opportunity to modify your communication style in the moment, learning and growing .
One on one therapy has been amazing two, but group work takes relationship potential to a new level because you can practice the skills as part of the group process.
Please contact me for more information.

THE BENEFITS OF BEING A MEMBER IN A PROCESS GROUP



• Discovering and accepting previously unknown or unacceptable parts of yourself
• Being able to say what was bothering you instead of holding it in
• Other members telling you honestly how they experience you
• Learning how to express your feelings
• The group’s teaching you about the type of impression you make on others
• Expressing negative and/or positive feelings towards another member
• Learning that you must take responsibility for the way you live your life, no matter how much guidance and support you get from others
• Learning how you come across to others
• Seeing that others can reveal embarrassing information and take other risks and benefit from it will help you to do the same and take risks
• Feeling more trustful of groups and other people

Trauma -Recovery-Radical Exposure Therapy and the Gifts of Learning from Great Teachers.


It hit me riding back from Newcastle that I was very grateful to have some amazing women teachers in my life. The privilege of receiving the generous wisdom given with such integrity and heart. 
June Lake is my spiritual Godmother and Yallom supervisor. Irving is her supervisor . June can hold you at your growing edge longer than anyone I know, and you are sure you are in the safest hands.

Roby Abeles and Salene Souza , Taught me Brainspotting , two amazing women of incredible  skill   , changing the face of Trauma resolution in Australia .my continued learning from these master therapists leaves me inspired and hungry for more .

Alexandra Katehakis - Clinical Director of the Center for Healthy Sex, is my Sex Addiction supervisor guides me , teaches me and impresses me with her depth, wisdom and expertise in what is societies great pandemic  right now.( see Sex Addiction as Affect Dysregulation- available of Amazon)

 This last Friday and Saturday I spent two days in advanced training with Laurie McKinnon. I found myself in a masterclass by Laurie over two years ago, and was overwhelmed by how efficient and clear her trauma technique was. 
Radical Exposure therapy , which you can look at an example on Laurie website quickly gets to the heart of the matter. Like Brainspotting it works at a subcortical level of affect regulation and repair.
She videos a lot of her sessions, and I'm so glad but you have to see it to believe it. It also makes her work so transparent . There is know where to hide when you are in the presence of such precision , but the learning is real time and immediate .
We might be from the land down under but there are some amazing master therapists in our midst, and I will always be grateful for learning the next step in the learning process.
I have added the contact details below for training and enquiry.
