About Me
Mo Ostler
Psychotherapist & Life Coach MBACP
I have spent the last 30 working as a psychotherapist, walking alongside people as they explored their inner worlds and ‘healed’ , or transformed, as I prefer to speak of it, some inner struggles.
More and more I could see how turning the tide of the struggle away from the difficulty, more towards the possibilities, was so much more helpful for so many people. I found more and more the work I was doing with people was coaching; looking towards self-belief and believing in possibilities which soon became realities.
So many times I would see how people were locked in a battle with a damaging past, trying to overcome it by visiting it again and again and rekindling old tendencies and feelings which no longer served; sometimes it is helpful to revisit; very often it is more helpful to take a new direction.
With recent discoveries in Brain Science, it has been seen how easy it is to simply teach the brain new ways of looking. When we revisit and revisit we reignite old pathways in the brain that show us how damaged we are; we remind the brain of a path we once took; its always easier to take a worn path. What if we were to leave these pathways to dwindle into nothingness by not using them. What if we were to forge new pathways that showed us how great we are; opened us to the possibilities that life still holds for us.
Its possible. Sometimes we need to revisit those old places and recognise where they have taken us in order to then turn in the other direction; to perhaps see and understand what our bodies are telling us; to find where all along we were being shown how to get to where we want to be.
I have many years’ experience of working as a psychotherapist and more latterly as a coach. My teachers and influences include Dr Arny Mindell (Process Oriented Psychology), Ron Kurtz (Hakomi), Dr Joe Dispenza, Abraham Hicks, Thich Nhat Hanh, Eckhart Tolle, and very many more. I am so grateful for their presence and influence in my life.
I have a skill in holding your process, and I have deep understanding of where this may lead you. I can spot the places you are holding; often out of habit; sometimes because it’s the only way we know how. Using awareness practice; body awareness, mindfulness and the breath, we work and play together to move you forward into a new possibility of a new and brighter future. It takes training ourselves; training the brain; it can be revelatory; it can be fun.
