One of the pleasures of our Locked up Living conversations, for us, is that we are always meeting people who come with different experience and a different perspective. But always the underlying tenets ar the same, sensitivity, thoughtfulness and trust. Such a person is Margie Wright.
Margie Wright bio.
When I was a teenager growing up in Zimbabwe I used to imagine, one day working as a psychotherapist but I never said it out loud as my family seldom talked about or showed those things called emotions. Instead, I went on to university in South Africa and studied Zoology and Entomology. I did though manage a sneaky year of psychology. As an Entomologist I worked in biological control and my job took me to the Sudan. Afterwards I had the experience of living in Egypt. There, I was involved in setting-up and volunteering for Befrienders Cairo (the Samaritans abroad), for 10 years, which I found fulfilling. On return to the UK, I found the courage to explore my teenage dream and did a foundation year in counselling. At last, I felt as if I was on the right track as counselling seemed to come naturally to me. I went on to train as a Transpersonal Psychotherapist at The Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education (CCPE), in London. Currently, I run my own private practice as a therapist and supervisor with a focus on developmental trauma having, also trained in two approaches effective in trauma therapy; Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems therapy. I am a member of staff at CCPE and run workshops entitled, “Trauma and the Transpersonal”. Please see my website www.counsellinginamersham.co.uk for further details.
