Ro Brown - Trainee Psychosynthesis Counsellor

Hi, I’m Ro (she/they). It's a tough challenge to sum up who I am and how I work in a couple of short paragraphs, but here’s a little bit about me so you can begin to get a sense of whether working together could be a good fit:

To me, therapy is all about the relationship we form. I believe that we all have our own inner wisdom which can guide us - even if we need some help getting in touch with it. I work in a way which prioritises creating a relationship that feels safe enough for you to experiment with allowing more of yourself to be met, known, and responded to, so that together we can explore whatever challenges you want to bring to therapy.

I am queer, genderfluid, and sex positive. I have many years’ experience in LGBTQIA+ communities, and of alternative relationship styles such as polyamory. These experiences of feeling different and finding belonging, and rewriting conventional cultural scripts, inform the way I work.

Our sessions might include talking about the past as well as the present, and how early experiences might be affecting you now. We might use imaginative techniques and guided imagery to connect with themes in a more immediate way, or use embodiment practices to process through the body rather than the mind.

My aim is to work in ways that work best for you, at the pace that feels right for you. While we may make detours along the way, I will always be paying close attention to what it is you’re wanting from therapy so we’re working towards the changes that you’re wanting to see.
