Changing your inner landscape through services in Psychotherapy
and Spiritual Accompaniment
Welcome to Humanwise
​
Hello and welcome to Humanwise. I'm Ali. I chose the name Humanwise because it captures being concerned with all the challenges and complexities of being human. Also in learning from our experiences, we find wisdom for living. I offer a professional service in Psychotherapy to enhance emotional and mental health. I'm a full clinical member of the UKCP.
I also provide a service in Spiritual Accompaniment recognising that there is also a body of knowledge found in the wisdom of spiritual traditions, that integrates well with psychotherapy and the work of inner transformation. Whilst my spirituality is Christ-Centred, so probably most suited to people with a Christian heritage and belief, I am quite happy to work with people of all faiths and spiritual traditions, and those who are unsure but just want to explore.
​
​​I'm a caring, independent, professional practitioner, based in Cumbria, on the edge of the Lake District. I work with adults and will work collaboratively with you in a therapeutic relationship to accompany you as you seek to leave the past behind, live fully alive with peace, in the present, living authentic lives with hope for the future.
Change is always possible even if you can’t see how. It just takes a step of courage to start the journey.



What I Specialise In
Just take the first step
Deciding to reach out and start a journey in psychotherapy, is a courageous and perhaps daunting step to take. It can also be a hopeful opportunity to effect real change. You may feel like you do not know where you are going or where it will end, you may just know that life is not working so well and you need to change, even though you may not know how. At Humanwise the focus is not so much on changing the things you are doing on the outside initially. It is more about looking more deeply within to find your authentic sense of being.
I view Psychotherapy as a learning process. It helps you grow significantly in self-knowledge and self-awareness enabling growth towards self acceptance and self compassion. It helps you to discover more about who you are, you will gain insight into what has shaped you and made you the person you are today.
With this self-awareness and insight, you can move forward in life. You can make more balanced and congruent choices; be the person you want to be deep down in your heart, rather than the person circumstances or situations have made you to be. You will learn new skills that will help you to manage life more effectively so that you can live a richer, fuller and meaningful life in line with the things you most value.
Here's how to get started and make an initial consultation:
Step One:

Make contact with me via the contact page.
​
Let me know when you are available for a free initial 15 minute clarity call meeting where you can briefly tell me what you are seeking support for.
Step Three:
Let's Get Going
​
Sessions usually take place weekly but other arrangements are possible
​
It is my view that face to face work is optimal, however I do offer online support via Teams or Google Meet.
