Stephanie Wolfe: Psychotherapist and Counsellor, UK Aftercare Consultant
Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling
After completing a four-year term of study, training and foundation course at Hertfordshire University, Stephanie gained a Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling, through a ‘British Association For Counselling and Psychotherapy’ (BACP) Accredited Course. Other qualifications include a Diploma in Teaching Adults and Children with Learning Difficulties. SafeHouse Rehab Center Thailand is delighted to have appointed Stephanie to this important role, for which all her varied skills and experience will be highly beneficial.
Working within the BACP ethical framework, Stephanie has spent 10 years working with adolescents, individuals and couples. She has worked in Private Practice and in close professional association with General Practice Doctor Surgeries, schools and charities.
Stephanie says: “I believe there are many issues in life that can take us to such difficult emotional places that our lives spiral out of control. For those susceptible to addictive behaviours, substance abuse can be a temporary coping mechanism. But this itself soon becomes the overriding symptom of the individual’s issues, while perpetuating and magnifying the problems rather than addressing them. Typically addiction and alcoholism tend to be the result of a combination of predisposition thereto, together with a range of physical, emotional and circumstantial factors. These have to be addressed as part of a wide-ranging treatment program that deals with the present and plans for the future, just as much as delving into the past.”
“I am looking forward to being involved in helping people through their difficulties. Having witnessed the chaos difficulties in so many lives that addictions cause, I am pleased to be involved in helping clients to get – and stay – clean. I am delighted to be a part of the SafeHouse team, and subscribe fully to our Duty of Care and Primary Purpose.”
