Lifeworks

Person-centred therapy

Person-centred therapy is a deeply humanistic and empowering approach rooted in the belief that every person has an innate capacity for growth, self-understanding, and self-actualisation when provided with the right conditions.

Mindful coaching

Mindful coaching is a transformative approach that blends the principles of mindfulness with the structure of coaching—creating space for deep presence, intentional growth, and compassionate self-awareness.

Workshops

From time to time we offer psycho-educational development.

Current is The Heuristic Quest for Theatre Makers.

About us

Welcome to Lifeworks!

Elen : I am a recent graduate psychotherapist with over twenty years experience as a coach in the theatre arts as well as pastoral care in higher education. Holding a confidential space you can trust is a priority so you can share and reflect freely. I'm drawn to Jung's quote 'I'd rather be whole than good' which inspires an opportunity to understand and be curious about all of who we are without judgment. I am encouraging and nurturing and I am also inspired to meet the challenge of change and transformation. I enjoy utilising creative writing in therapy and the healing benefits of alternative therapies. I have supported and worked closely with undergraduates as well as post-graduate students. I run my own charity to provide opportunities for theatre makers and young people who learn differently.

Therapy Issues include Addiction, Anxiety, Depression, Shame, Trauma, Parenting ASD and ADHD, Student and education pressures, Mid-life and Menopause issues, Cult trauma, Birth-story work.

Robert : I am an NLP Master practitioner plus Mindfulness teacher. I have a sensitive and pragmatic approach to help you achieve the goals you have in mind. Whether its addressing stress and relationships or issues with confidence and self-esteem I can help you find strategies to achieve a more present and balanced outlook. I regularly coach professionals in the creative industries in the UK and abroad. I have a passion of the outdoors and enjoy caretaking our charity space and land in Carmarthenshire.

Coaching issues include : Self confidence, Self-esteem, leadership, self-regulation, relationships in the workplace, performance,
