Psychotherapy with Chuey Y Loh

We all yearn for recognition, acceptance and acknowledgement of what we do and who we are. These basic needs are often not met. In developing awareness at how we position ourselves in the world in the present, we can begin to have a sense of what we can do to shift our feelings of being stuck in our internal landscape.

Through developing awareness of mind and body, we can change our experience of how we relate to ourselves and to the world.

Core Process Psychotherapy is based on a wholistic and in-depth understanding of human potential. The 'Core' is that unconditioned state inherent in all of us, a state that is potentially present in every moment. Core Process is the energetic movement from this inherent awareness or unconditioned state to the way we develop our personality and the shape of who we are.

We can come into this inherent awareness and begin to feel our potential to trust and change.

In relation to other contemporary psychotherapeutic approaches, Core Process Psychotherapy is humanistic, integrative, transpersonal and psychospiritual. There are also strong existential aspects in the exploration of the therapeutic process. The therapeutic process involves looking at the individual's development history, the potential of existential awakening and the realisation of the essential integrity of our Core. This process of psychological reflection is held within contemplative awareness of the wider nature of the true essence of our Being. The Core Process approach is seen as a wider form of Buddhist Psychotherapy.



Core Process Psychotherapy is rooted in Buddhist psychology and awareness practices. This combination of Buddhist views and western psychotherapeutic approaches brings together a focus on a body-mind awareness of our relationships. The focus is a way of being with our present experiences with openness and a non-judgemental manner.

Knowledge of Buddhism is not a prerequisite for looking at how you would like to change. Within the therapeutic context, you will be accompanied in the process with a deep sense of compassion.
