Shirley Long:
Counselling Wellness Retreats Workshops

Facing into these challenges can mark the beginning of deepening self-knowledge and the creation of a more empowered life. It takes courage to start the inner journey of change. Recognising you need support is one thing, but the process of finding the person best suited to support you can be challenging.

I run a practice specifically geared to meet the psychological needs of women. This includes individual sessions (in person or Zoom), as well as group work: Women’s Study groups, Retreats and Rhythm and Soul drumming events. 

I am a Psychosynthesis practitioner. Psychosynthesis is a psychospiritual psychology developed by Italian psychiatrist Roberto Assagioli. This modality combines Western ‘depth’ psychology with Eastern ‘height’ psychology to create a holistic approach to wellbeing. Using a range of models, tools, interventions and strategies geared specifically to the unique individual, Psychosynthesis recognises challenges and crises can be portals of meaningful change.

My specialty areas include but are not limited to, working with women feeling stuck, anxious, stressed, depressed, little sense of self confidence and esteem,  facing relationship challenges, grief, loss and trauma.
