Description
Rory nurtures a counselling/therapeutic environment which invites creative involvement of the client’s inner and outer resources. When the inner “Wise Self” is connected with “Authentic power” in therapy, an unfolding process develops. There is no cookie-cutter approach nor pressure to go faster than is comfortable
Personal stories and goals become the foundation for client-centered work. Rory’s ideal client profile stretches from individuals and couples with self-esteem and relationship issues to addictions and depression – to ADHD coaching for adults (single or in relationship).
