John Castleford
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MIAEB, FRAI
I have been a psychotherapist and mental health coach for many years, and I now specialise almost exclusively in helping those with, or recovering from, cancer. It's a debilitating disease that I have experienced twice, so I know at first hand the effect it can have on the quality of life and particularly how it makes us feel -- either as a reaction to being diagnosed and undergoing treatment, or when in remission as a survivor, the fear of it recurring.
I can also help family members and close friends, who often feel helpless bystanders.
We have all experienced our feelings dominating what we think, and what we do. But heightened emotions stop us thinking clearly. And that can often lead us to feel out of control.
Unlike many therapists, I do not believe that the adverse effect on our thinking and our behaviour from a life-changing event like cancer is a dysfunctional flaw or a disorder that needs treatment. Typical reactions to cancer --anxiety, fear, stress and low mood -- are part of life. Why cancer often triggers is a range of reactions: shock and denial; Shock and denial that it is happening. Coping with fear, anxiety and panic can be difficult, particularly as mood swings may frequently change. Feelings of sadness may range from low moof to extreme depression.
Ultimately we know, at a rational level, that we are mortal. But we also have we also have a very strong instinct to survive. We want to live. And enjoy life. Cancer is not the death sentence it once was.
I can help you come to terms with the reality as well as the inevitable perceptions that may influence you. And I can help you to flourish, rather than just cope and survive.

Rebekah Kittl
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA Level 1, ACC (ICF)
Something in you already knows, even if you haven't quite found the words for it yet. You're the one everyone leans on, the one who's always had it together, and you're very good at making sure nobody sees the parts that don't.
Managing and being ok aren't always the same thing.
Counselling starts with helping your nervous system settle, so your decisions come from your values, not just your stress.
Some of what you're carrying makes more sense once it's said out loud. I've spent years helping people get there, drawing on more than two decades in business and leadership before I trained as a counsellor, so I understand the kind of pressure you're under.
I founded KMentors Group, a coaching and counselling practice, to offer exactly this kind of work.
You don't need a crisis to justify reaching out. Send me a message, and we'll take it from there.
