How I became a Psychotherapist
My development as a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist has been gradual and over several decades. Beginning with a study of Freud, Jung, and Adler;Erikson then training in Rogerian Counselling, and reading followed by Groupwork experience and interest in Gestalt.
The most important element in this process has been a consistent drive to understand how people develop, learn and what causes distress. In creasing understanding led to an increasing desire to find the best way to help.
My interest in what works led me to CBT. I have been practicing and teaching CBT for 15 years. Since that time I have seen great expansion and development in the practice of CBT which has led to an ever increasing readiness to incorporate insight and techniques from all therapies to enable effective help for clients.
