John Castleford

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, mARCHTI, FRAI

Many therapists focus on what is "wrong" and use 'referring issues' as the starting point. However, it's becoming increasingly clear that too much personal introspection, guided or not, keeps the pain of the past very much in the present. Most clients want to focus on how to feel better rather than staying focused on past hurt. I base my approaches on using the very latest findings from neuroscience to fuel the primary goal of getting from where you are now to where you want to be. A good starting point is focusing on high points in your life: by recalling those we not bring great memories into our present focus but we also recreate those wonderful feelings we felt at that time. So, just as you do your best work when you are at the top of your game, focusing on positive rather than negative feelings from the past is a great place to begin work. Just ask yourself if you make your best decisions when you are feeling low. Now compare that to when you have been so buoyed up that you feel all but unstoppable. Most people aren't 'broken'. But they may be side-lined or undermined, held back, stuck, drained, numb, or otherwise constrained by a mismatch between expectations/aspirations and how we feel. The logical brain doesn't always align with emotions and feelings. Maybe external circumstances brought about persistent low mood. Perhaps your self-esteem took a nose-dive, or maybe you just find it hard to cope, or don't feel you're in control anymore. Our thoughts often control us, and determine our feelings -- as our behaviour often depends on how we feel. Our thoughts associated feelings often don't just control us -- they often prevent us from becoming the best version of who we could/should be. Are your thoughts stopping you from being the best version of who you could be? Do you think I might be able to help you? Here's something to consider. If I can't make you feel better about yourself within 15 minutes of an initial consultation then I don't deserve to work with you. Why not let me use my academic background and decades of experience in psychological support, coaching, education, and psychotherapy to help you? I specialise in supporting those affected by cancer, but can also help with issues such as low mood, phobias and traumatic experiences, I also specialise in existential therapy and have an extensive background in the philosophy of Stoicism [not the unemotional/stiff-upper-lip Mr Spock version] on which Albert Ellis' REBT and Aaron Beck's CBT both based their therapeutic approaches.

Therapist, Advanced Anxiety/PTSD treatment and Confidence building. Fast results. IEMT/EMDR, NLP, Hypnotherapy.

I have worked with over 1000 people using Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT) treating anxiety, PTSD, fear, panic, being on edge, overthinking in 1-10 sessions. IEMT is a rapid release process that does more than any talk therapy. I am highly experienced working with feelings of regret, guilt, shame, anger, panic, fear, stress and more. I offer further mindset tools from NLP, Mindfulness and Hypnosis to help you change your life and break the cycles that are leaving you stuck. Clients have experienced change in 1-6, some 1-10 sessions which did more than years of talk therapy. You will feel free, unlimited, calmer, detached from any past pain with my guidance to help you 'reset' and restructure your outcomes. I have worked with anxiety, trauma, divorce, identity challenges, fears, insomnia, overwhelm, stress and more. It would be my pleasure to work with you so that you can experience changes in your life. Sessions aren't about just talking, they are about creating changes for the better. I typically work with people for 10 sessions, which is a 10 week programme. If you're looking for help and support over the next 10 weeks where I will help you to think and feel better, and improve any behaviours in your life so the changes last, please message me. 10 sessions is £950 for online sessions, or 6 sessions for £820.
