Pari Porhonar
I am a fully certified counsellor, with degrees in counselling and psychotherapy and substantial experience in working with a wide variety of clients. I have worked within the National Health Service (NHS), schools and charities, as well as with private clients over the last 10 years. I am currently Clinical Team Manager at The Validium Group, which offers counselling support to organisations in the private and public sector.
My focus is on applying a humanistic psychodynamic or solutions-focussed approach. This means that my therapeutic approach is to personalise therapy to meet clients' requirements. I offer an empathetic and supportive environment, and believe therapy works best when counsellor and client work collaboratively.
I work with my clients to achieve their chosen goals, be they short or long term: exploring options, resolving past issues, reviewing goals, enabling resolution and progressing forward enhancing self-esteem and confidence.
My specialist training includes:
My governing body is the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, and I strictly work within their ethical framework and code of conduct.
