Wellbeing in Later Life
New research from Swansea University reveals how personal values, social ties, and the body’s ability to regulate stress shape mental wellbeing and psychological distress as people grow older.
Doing what matters most (meaning-oriented behaviour) was the strongest predictor of higher wellbeing and lower ill-being, partly because it fosters social connection and resilience.

Telephone Counselling is as Effective as Face-to-Face
A recent research study indicates that, "...similar clinical outcomes can be achieved via the telephone as are obtained in face-to-face [therapy]".
Furthermore, the alliance between therapist and client, as well as levels of empathy, attentiveness, participation and openess, are equivalent as in face-to-face therapy.

For convenience I can offer telephone counselling sessions, as necessary and where appropriate, having completed specialist telephone training.
