Let Me Identify your Strengths
My focus with clients is to help them identify their strengths - strengths they may have used in the past to overcome crises. I will support them to build on those strengths, to be resilient and find hope for their future. John is from Wagga and he built Hope and Resilience Counselling on the foundations that, despite our struggles, there is always hope and that circumstances can improve.
I was fortunate to find John and had 8 counselling sessions with him. He was attentive, caring and very good at validating my past experience – allowing me to understand and reflect on what was going on for me.
John also engaged me in meaningful discussions so as we could explore my thoughts and feelings about these experiences. I was able to recognise how my thinking was affecting my belief and actions and what I could explore to do, to change my options and thinking.
I liked his structured and clear approach to appointments and set-up and would re-visit him again if I needed to.
John gave us some excellent reading and video resources to help with communication and anxiety for use at home. He also clearly explained how they would help us in the sessions.
With the new skills we’ve learned, our relationship has really improved. We are now equipped for the next time things get bumpy. Plus there’s also the added comfort knowing that we can go back to Hope and Resilience to fine tune our relationship skills if things get too tough.
Seeking Counselling from John Dodwell, as part of my ERP, telecall sessions, I found him to be both professional and empathetic to my circumstances. Talking to John was like talking to a friend. His wisdom and knowledge put me at ease. I always left the sessions with a sense of positivity. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of counselling,
John is a highly professional counsellor, in fact I tried using other services in the past and John’s support made a huge difference. We communicated via online sessions, they were really well organised. John has a lot of knowledge and experience and I received a lot of great information and support that facilitated a great positive change for me. I highly recommend John for anyone who needs psychological support.
John was flexible, insightful and gentle. I found him easy to talk to, both about the immediate EAP issue that prompted my contacting him and about more general issues as well. In-person or online session were both good, because he is very personable.
I would strongly recommend to anyone seeking counselling to get in contact with John. I felt comfortable, supported, and respected through all out discussions. The new skills John provided really helped me.
