Craig Behenna

As a counsellor I work with people to experience a more fulfilled life. We work with the whole self - thoughts, yes, and also your physical and emotional experience. An understanding of your whole experience of life helps you to develop a stronger sense of self and a sense of compassion and resilience in difficult times. You’ll feel more able to set your own direction for your life. As a coach, I work with executive clients in the tech and corporate sectors in the USA and South East Asia. I also work with creative clients from around the world. I use an approach that combines several therapeutic, coaching and counselling methods to work with your issues and assist your growth. Psychosynthesis is a foundation of the way I work. Psychosynthesis holds that you are looking to grow and bring inner and outer harmony to your life. As we work on the issues you bring to sessions, we become more aware of emerging conscious and subconscious motivations and questions. As you integrate those parts of yourself coming up for review, it becomes clearer to live a life in alignment with the values that are most important to you. I also work with mindfulness and meditation-based techniques. Benefits include increased sense of peace and connection, an ability to experience that you are not your difficult states and thought processes, mental and emotional clarity and an improved relationship with and understanding of yourself. Other forms that influence my work include narrative therapy, solutions-focused coaching and therapy, mindfulness and mindfulness-based forms like Compassion-Based Therapy. We’ll discover your goal, your reasons and purpose for wanting it, and we’ll find the methods and practices that suit you best. We’ll find the mix and balance that works for you. I’m also certifying in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and continue training in meditation and Buddhist Psychology. At the moment, I offer sessions online only, though this may change in future.
