“I wish to offer my profuse thanks for significantly helping me during a most difficult time in my life.
Your wisdom, hinterland of knowledge and subject matter counselling expertise, helped make a material difference to my mental wellbeing, and improved quality of life, as evinced by my pre and post questionnaire scores: depression reduced from 18 to 2 and anxiety from 13 to 3. That this occurred in a mere ten sessions is remarkable.
From past experience, the nature of the relationship between and therapist and client is crucial and I had implicit trust in your knowledge, understanding, judgement and abilities as a therapist.”

Leading to the identification of personalised therapy goals and strategies, which are continually monitored and evaluated.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapists work with individuals, families and groups.
Coaching aims to unlock your potential so that you can achieve what you want from your life.
It is a process of enquiry and personal discovery which helps you clarify your desires and values , and supports you in taking action consistent with them.
“I was Chief Executive of a medium sized Investment Company, initially a start-up, based in Zurich. One of the challenges we faced was that our workforce was necessarily multilingual and multicultural. With friction between differing personalities being a potential issue, and in order to create a more harmonious and efficient environment and team, we asked Mrs Ross-Cameron, to start working with us. She had whole day sessions with various team members once a month for just over two years.
I have no doubt that her careful attention and guidance enabled individuals to come closer to reaching their full potential, and us as a whole, to be a better, happier team and ultimately more successful.
She was personable, thoughtful, reliable and efficient throughout and I would wholeheartedly recommend her.”

ACT emphasises such processes as mindfulness, acceptance, and values in helping clients overcome obstacles in their lives.
ACT helps people to learn ways to let go of struggles with pain, be more mindful, get clarity on what really matters to them, and commit to living life to the full, vibrant lives.
Mindfulness is a type of meditation in which you focus on being intensely aware of what you are sensing and feeling in the present moment, without interpretation or judgement. Practicing mindfulness involves breathing methods, guide imagery, and other practices to relax the body and mind.
It promotes the regular practice as an important part of good physical and mental health.
