Psychotherapy & Counselling > Practitioners
Richard sees clients for private therapy at his fully air conditioned healing centre in Inglewood, Perth. Richard offers a one on one therapy session for $100 that is grounded in Integrative Body Mind Psychotherapy, but also embraces his skills as a Jungian Dream Analyst, counselor, Organisational and family Constellations Facilitator, Executive and Life Skills Coach and Mentor. Concessions are available. Richard operates holistically with his clients to achieve permanent healing. Apart from "talk therapy", where required, Richard will employ specific body work techniques to release muscular blocks and areas where the body holds trauma, stress, anger, depression and anxiety. Richard sees Core/Heart Energetics as a powerful tool of transformation that is part of his healers "toolkit". His toolkit also encompasses psychotherapeutic and cognitive techniques such as voice dialogue, regression, inner child work, Jungian dream analysis, Buddhist psychology, as well as reflective absorption of current quantum physics and biomedical knowledge. Richard is married to Helena and they have been together for 12 years and have a daughter together. In the last 20 years Richard has carved out a highly successful career in corporate business life, working in the fields of business strategy, marketing and I.T., having worked and consulted with a range of organisations across Financial Services, Government, Mining, and I.T. Services sectors. Richard has more recently expanded his consulting services to Life Skills coaching and mentoring, leadership practices and emotional intelligence coaching for the executive in the workplace, dealing with transference in team environments and managing change in organisational processes via Business Process Re-engineering. Richard is a full member of AIM (Australian Institute of Management). In the field of spiritual development, Richard was first introduced to spiritual life by growing up on a sheep station in the Murchison area of WA. He was befriended by the local aboriginal "Gudicha man" or spiritual enforcer of the Budimia people, who lived and worked on the sheep station, and who educated Richard in the ways of the local aboriginal spiritual healing and right-living paths. After receiving a Catholic higher education, and having forged a successful career in Corporate and I.T. Consulting, Richard has spent the last 25 years immersed in the ways of numerous healing modalities and spiritual paths, uncovering the "common ground" on which these paths lie, and deepening his own spiritual path which is based on New Kadampa Tibetan Buddhism as well as working with the Catholic mystical tradition of "The Great Cloud of Unknowing". Richard brings hope and infuses clients with his warmth and enthusiasm for all that he undertakes. His clinical and course work is recognised as providing a safe and loving environment in which to explore deep and sensitive issues and his compassion and wisdom for his client's dilemmas is testament to his conviction to his work and to his spiritual path. Richard can relate to all walks of life, having worked with clients from backgrounds as diverse as teenage homeless to Executives and CEO's of Corporate life. |
