My name is John Threadgold and I am a counselling practitioner located in Raynes Park and Wimbledon.
As a counsellor, my main aim is to accept you as you are, to understand you from your own point of view and to enter into a therapeutic alliance with you that is real and genuine. My experience is that when this happens, clients often begin to recover, feel better about themselves, and make constructive changes in their lives.
I have a special interest in Men & Counselling, dealing with issues as to why men can be reluctant to go into counselling and why life coaching might be an alternative for men to consider.

Focusing and other experiential therapy interventions (e.g. Mindfulness based therapy) have a track record in helping clients feel better, and make constructive changes to their lives. Recent research has also shown that Focusing has been helpful to cancer patients, and also clients experiencing alcohol and drug related addictions. Focusing can be integrated into your existing counselling model.
This course will cover focusing theory, focusing partnership skills, and includes focusing and mindfulness exercises that you can practise yourself, and introduce to your clients.
