Rob writes: I have been a counsellor, groupworker, psychotherapist, educator, team developer, life coach and trainer to a wide range of client individuals and groups.
While I seek to fit my broadly-based companionable approach to each client's needs and interests, my central commitment is to assist each individual in encompassing, deepening, enriching and realising the full range of human experience and creativity in mutually enhancing relationships.
In my work and life, I emphasise playfulness, respect, enjoyment, self-responsibility, truthfulness, healing and love as individuals deepen their mutual connections. I aim to assist clients to live so as to honour and value relationships and communication as well as their own dignity and potential.
