Russell, based on client feedback in many different contexts and experience Russell will offer you the following:‍ as applied to your individual context:

‍ ‍Patience, persistence and pathways—You will see from some of the sample client feedback below, Russell offers all three  of these “p’s”. In relationship issues, it will depend on what both parties want to explore and also what is appropriate in terms of well-being for all parties, including children (where this is relevant).

‍ ‍Options—Building on the concept of pathways, Russell will help people consider options and help people process the implications of these options.    Again, in relationships people often have preferences for different options.  Options will be presented in how people want to process issues individually. You may use what is often known as “talk therapy”, or you may work with a range of creative options as practiced in narrative therapy. ‍ You can also work with the faith and/or spiritual dimension that you choose. Russell has worked with people with faith/spiritual or no faith perspectives for many years.

Compassion, connection and collaboration—Russell  approaches are compassionate and hopeful. The sample feedback below demonstrates Russell connects with a wide group of people and collaborates to explore values that are important to them. Your needs and values are honored, and you will be invited to explore what is important to the people around you.
