Qualified Counsellor MBACP
Supervisor
Lucie Vybihalova
I am an Integrative Counsellor and a Supervisor. I work with Children from the age of 4 years and Adults. I have experience working in Private Practice, schools, youth clubs and mental health organizations. I provide a therapeutic support to people who find themselves in the crisis. Establishing trust is the cornerstone of the therapeutic relationship and therapy work. I create a safe space, where clients feel understood and therefore able to confront their vulnerabilities. This is achieved by play , imagination and creativity. I have developed 6weeks program, where clients are able to explore their understanding of themselves and this can be explored further to enhance their self-esteem and courage.
I offer supervision session, integrating my work experience and training in Psychosynthesis Trust as an Integrative Supervisor.
How can counselling help?
Emotional difficulties and painful feelings are a fact of life. But sometimes they can become overwhelming, unmanageable and long-lasting, so much so, that we can reach a point, that we don't know what to do. We can become distressed, anxious and begin to feel hopeless. We can find ourselves repeating destructive patterns of thinking and behaving without understanding why. Sometimes we just have a feeling of something being wrong but we can't articulate what that might be.
Talking to friends and family or changing our lifestyle can help. Sometimes we don't always have this option or we feel that it doesn't help and the problem runs far deeper. Then it is time to consider counselling.
I don't offer advice, as what works for one person may not work for another. The therapeutic process offers us the unique opportunity to reflect and find ways of coping that works best for us. My integrative Personality Model is symbolised by the Maze with four approaches how to explore the human personality : Cognitive, Psychodynamic, Transpersonal and Somatic/Bodywork. Being creative requires courage, when an Individual is not judged by others, but rather builds the confidence, resilience and self-belief. Play is an important part of developmental process, summarising the ongoing learning with children needing to adapt their original ideas if a new piece of information seems to contradict their schema. The concept of the challenge in therapy is characterized by the tower that client symbolically climbs is a metaphor for a personal development.
