Gordon Urquhart
During my 20 years as a Registered Nurse I saw how the psychological and emotional side of a person’s illness often impacted them just as much as their physical challenges did. I retrained as a Psychotherapist so I could work with clients to help them with these less visible sides of their lives.
In the NHS, I am part of the Palliative Care Specialist Psychology Team and I work with clients who are living with life-limiting illness or have been bereaved. Although I have a special interest in working with cancer and bereavement I also work with people who may be experiencing any of a broad spectrum of challenges.
I have a relaxed, practical approach to psychotherapy which ensures my clients feel safe to explore, adapt and, where appropriate, change their experience of even the most difficult circumstances in their lives.
I combine my background in healthcare with my extensive knowledge and skills in Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) and Ericksonian Hypnotherapy in my work as an NLP Trainer, Coach and Facilitator.
