Day 4 365Project

Feeling in transition today as I move my office downstairs. I have spent nearly 4 years in private counselling practice in Centrex Conference Centre. My first experience of office life and as a professional!

The corridor where my office was located has got much busier in the last few months, which is great for the building and makes sure that this loation known for it's open, relaxed and welcoming atmosphere continues to be viable.

But also means that I need to be in a quieter part of the building, which is why I am moving downstairs. It's a great part of the building, I am sure the people I work with will be comfortable there and as I closed the door on my first ever office I could feel my heart stretching in a way I didn't expect!

It's probably got something to do with my attachment issues, and my struggle to move in to new things and it says something about how right it was for me to enter this field, this building and this life!

Hope you like the pic of my new room :)

External Assesor

Visit from the external assesor to www.stevenson.ac.uk yesterday where I have been teaching counselling skills since September last year.

The assesor was one if the tutors on my counselling diploma and had a profound impact on mr and how I work!

It was great to see her "get" what the team offers in counselling skills training, a deeply relational space where there is plenty of room to develop!

When I joined the team I was sure it was a great place to develop myself in this kind if work, by the end of yesterday I was convinced all over again!

OCTIA 2010 Interviews

I am recording a series of interviews with the organisers of the OCTIA 2010 conference. The only conference to date about online counselling that is actually available to attend online!


I was too ill this afternoon to record the planned interview with Anne Stokes, which is really disappointing as I have been enjoying the experience and feels great to be getting stuck into preparations. Sorry for canceling Anne and look forward to recording the interview next week.
