FIND RELIEF
Hello ,i'm Rick!Welcome to change
I am deeply committed to assisting people in healing beyond their history so they can reconcile and overcome their pain of their past. With a working understanding of the biological basis of anxiety and the nature and development of psychological problems and how they manifest. This is something I have come to refer to as our adaptive self
Please read on to learn about the historical nature of our psychological problems…
About our adaptive self
I have come to understand, believe and distill in my practice that most, if not all ‘psychological wounding’ starts in the family, usually when we are very young. If there was ‘trauma’ or sustained periods of dis-ease, even if home life was somewhat sheltered, we adapt…
Here, you can learn about the ways in which we adapt come into being as a way of coping with psychological wounding and how this comes to manifest as unresolved historical psychological difficulties in later life.
Find your truth
This understanding, endorsed by industry leading experts enable me to carefully and compassionately uncover the underlying issues together with my clients so they can overcome the psychological wounding from the fallout of navigating their historical difficulties, find their truth, find their peace and come to an acceptance so they can move on, stronger, wiser and more resilient to cope with the demands of life.
