Dr Lynne Campbell-Gillies Counselling Psychologist

I have counselled for several organisations including the Depression and Anxiety Support Group, Headway (for brain injured individuals), and the Martindale Counselling Centre in Johannesburg building up a wealth of experience in many areas of human problems including trauma counselling, bereavement, marriage guidance, career guidance, sexual identity problems, dealing with traumatic brain injured individuals and their families, HIV-AIDS counselling, living with cancer, and many more.

My doctorate, D. Litt et Phil (Psychology), was obtained from the University of Johannesburg. My thesis was entitled: The Effect of Guided Imagery and Relaxation on Patients Receiving treatment for Non-metastatic Cancer. This study enabled me to work with many inspiring individuals using a very effective tool, namely, ‘guided imagery’ to help people manage the side-effects of their cancer treatment.

I believe very much in the power of the human spirit! We’ve all heard inspiring stories of regular people who have managed to transcend enormous difficulties. Despite the curved balls that are thrown to us, we are immensely creative and resilient. It is my fundamental belief that there is an implicate order (Bohm, 1980) in the apparent chaos in which we sometimes find ourselves. This understanding of life and the universe enables me to provide a containing, compassionate yet motivational environment for my clients to resolve their difficulties and move forward with a greater sense of meaning and purpose.
