What is the difference between Counselling and Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy and counselling are similar processes, psychotherapy being a longer and more in depth one. Sometimes, in coping with life's early challenges and trauma, unconscious habits or patterns of behaviour have been formed, leading to the development of a character style which is helpful to resolve the early situation, but ultimately blocks progress in life.

What is the benefit of massage and bodywork
Lifes difficulties, and especially trauma, can leave stress, anxiety and a disconnection from our bodies and our emotions. Massage and other bodywork can be a gentle way back into our harmony with ourselves and our feelings. And it is relaxing and enjoyable.
