About Noetic Counselling
How I work as a therapist
I aim to engage with the deeper levels of knowing already within a person, currently not in awareness. This is achieved by exploring cues present in the body or imagination that, when ready, are brought forward into consciousness. In this way, it is a way of drawing on inherent, unutilised wisdom the person already holds.
Who this is for
My approach is not tailored to specific mental health issues. This approach is for people who are serious about creating the changes they need in their lives. This is not for temporary relief of a particular symptom but long-term resilience and the capacity to make difficult decisions in the present and the future.
Type of therapy I use
I work directly with how the body is expressing itself in the present moment. I have found this enables access to the deeper layers of who person is and how they want to change without becoming unnecessarily consumed with personal history. I also use Processwork, which is a type of Jungian depth psychotherapy that utilises cues present in the body to access unconscious processes via the imagination.
The philosophy behind the approach
The philosophy is simply the belief that awareness enables a person to heal. By becoming more aware of what exists within us, we naturally arrive at our own personal solutions. Becoming more aware of ourselves cultivates a deeper sense of meaning and purpose helping us to become more personally resilient.
Rowan Druce | Counsellor and Psychotherapist
I have lived many lives and shed many skins. I have worked as an industrial abseiler, construction worker, telecommunications rigger, stage rigger amongst other jobs. My work has taken me up wind turbines, into power stations, onto gas platforms and iron ore mines. From my times building a mud brick house, and working as a painter through to working as a social worker, I have always been interested in the people I meet and work with. I have spent many years also turning inwards and working to unravel the mystery that lies within. Now I wish to help bear the torch, like others did for me, to help people explore their own inner worlds. I work at Waratah Holistic Health in Katoomba
