Helmut Rudolph Psychotherapy

Kiaora, Welcome
I support mental health, and provide help for worry around emotions, thoughts and behaviours.
I have been a therapist in independent practice since 2003.

Approach

My stance is that we are made of body, mind and spirit, and that we are at our best when we are well on all three planes.

I see a psychotherapy as focussing on your “mind” part of that trinity; your psycho-emotional world.
I take the view that there are an ego, an unconscious and a heart in that mind (at the very least!).
I afford great respect to the mind. In particular I support developing greater emotional self-awareness.

A good psychotherapy will support you so that the architecture of your mind is robust, and that on an emotional level you are coping the bad times and thriving in the good ones.

My approach is centred in a form of therapy called relational psychoanalysis.
It is also grounded in evidence-based research from Neuroscience and Cognitive psychology (CBT, DBT), and in Transpersonal psychology.

On a everyday human level, I admire that how we relate to ourselves, and how we relate to others, is mediated through our internal world of thoughts, feelings and sensations.

This psychotherapy practice is ethical. Some of the tenets of my practice are attunement, healing, insight, presence, and therapeutic relationship.

We discuss your needs on an ongoing basis, and work with the intentions and issues that you bring.

The style is conversational and relational.

There is no employment of hypnosis or physical touch.

I welcome individuals, couples and small groupings.
