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.

Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
What sets my practice apart is the powerful combination of personal experience and proven methodology. As someone who has personally overcome addiction and depression, I don't just understand your struggles academically - I've lived them and found a way through.
My Subconscious Dynamics™ approach gets results where other therapies have failed. While traditional talk therapy addresses surface-level thoughts, I work directly with your subconscious mind where real transformation happens. This is where your habits, triggers, and limiting beliefs actually live - and where they can be permanently rewired.
My clients often see breakthrough progress within weeks, not years. I've helped people who were told they were "treatment-resistant" or who had tried multiple therapists without success. My holistic, medication-free approach addresses root causes, creating lasting change rather than temporary relief.
You don't have to struggle alone anymore. If you're tired of surface-level solutions and ready for real transformation, I invite you to take the first step. Contact me today for a consultation where we can discuss how my unique approach can help you break free from what's been holding you back and create the life you truly want. Your breakthrough is closer than you think.
