Whether it is romantically, socially or professionally, feeling disconnected from the people around you is one of the hardest burdens to bare. It's a natural part of human nature, the longing for belonging. But achieving that isn't always so straight forward. I have worked with hundreds of clients and so often I hear:
If this sounds familiar, then maybe this course is for you.
I'm Rebecca, founder of We are Delphi! I'm an ex British Diplomat turned therapist and coach. I have helped hundreds of people over thousands of hours connect with their partners and colleague, but most importantly, themselves.
In this time of globalisation and automation, it's never been more important to connect on the personal level. I have spent nearly two decades making communication my trade, I have taken the lessons I have learned over that time and from my own transformative education, to make this: 12 session course, to help you navigate communicating in the modern world.
Over the twelve (50-90 minute) sessions we will explore how to feel more confident communicating with others and develop your social and emotional inelegance so being open and vulnerable becomes a power not something to fear.

will measure throughout.

self-assessment.

noticing what happens under pressure.

Dryden, 2002).

value.

dominate, or disengage.

or retreat.

hold back.

None of this is necessarily straight forward or easy, but it's a hell of a lot easier than trying to do it on your own.
So book in for a free intro call, let's talk about what your facing now, what you would like to achieve and how working together, you could become closer to the meaningful people in your life.
Those who who feel lonely or disconnected in their relationships — romantic or otherwise.
people looking for tools and techniques to build better friendships & relationships.
those who want to feel more confident in how they communicate.
people who are looking for set tools to navigate difficult conversations and relationships.
This will be a voyage, we will draw on what I've learned from my time in the professional sector and the foreign office, we will work on how you actively communicate and make you feel more comfortable in a social setting. But I will also use what I learned from my therapy training to work on your inner landscape, find the reasons why you struggle to be open and transparent with those you deeply care about.
This will be a transformative course, but it means that you will have to be ready to work, I will guide you through this process with care, but it is important to understand, that with work like this, it is a marathon and not a sprint.
That being said, our mix of practical as well as psychological tools will see you leaving each session better equipped to connect with the people most important to you.
