Wayne M. Mertins-Brown NCP BACP

 

Wayne is a psychotherapy counsellor. He offers one-to-one and group therapy. He works with an integrative/holistic approach, including theoretical principles such as Psychodynamic, Humanistic/Spiritual and Gestalt. Wayne also incorporate Eco-Psychotherapy, as he believes we are each emotionally and spiritually impacted by the ecological environments in which we live.

 

However, despite his years of training and experience, he believes what is absolutely fundamental to an individual’s personal improvement in therapy, is the open, honest, heart-to-heart connection and easy rapport created between him and his client.

 

That two-way ‘relational’ interaction is his focus; the place he believes from where beneficial, therapeutic and lasting change is triggered, takes hold and then grows. It’s the guiding principle in the way he chooses to work.

 

Qualifications: Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling (Level 7).
