I work as an Integrative Counsellor/Psychotherapist in a doctor’s surgery and in private practice. Most of my clients are referred by the medical profession, presenting with issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship breakdown, post traumatic stress, panic, phobias, chronic pain, obsessive compulsive disorder, low self-esteem, chronic fatigue (ME) or simply wanting someone to talk to.
In the sections below, I've included more information on my qualifications and way of working, together with links to some of the relevant publications, documents and presentations I’ve completed in recent months.
To make an appointment with me, or for more information or to make comments on any topic, please make contact via the telephone numbers or email below.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
John
P.S. I also work via the telephone/Skype with clients anywhere in the world.

I use a blend of traditional counselling/psychotherapy approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Hypnotherapy, with extensive use of Energy Psychology (principally Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)) as a powerful enhancement tool.
I am a qualified member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and my practice is informed by BACP’s Ethical Framework. I am also qualified at Trainer level with the Association for the Advancement of Meridian Energy Techniques (AAMET) and as a Master Hypnotist by the Proudfoot School of Clinical Hypnosis and as a practitioner of Matrix Reimprinting.
Over the years I’ve found that many of my clients’ presenting issues have a strong relationship element, either directly causing the presenting issue or as a side effect from it. I therefore see support to clients’ relationships as critical to almost all therapy. I do occasionally work with couples, but I mostly work with individuals.
I'm thrilled to be one of only 4 people from UK (together with EFT Masters Emma Roberts, Sue Beer and Judy Byrne) invited to take part in this year's Tapping World Summit.
My chosen topic is Building Thriving and Loving Relationships, and in an hour long interview with Jessica Ortner, we discuss and tap together on many key relationship issues, drawing on principles from the great spiritual traditions.
Here are some highlights from the programme:
Sun 21 Feb - Carol Look on Tapping into Abundance: Understanding What's Really Going on with the Law of Attraction and Healing Your Relationship with Money
Mon 22 Feb - Judy Byrne on Using Your Critical Voice as a Tapping Buddy
Fri 26 Feb - Sue Beer on Breaking the Chain of Addictions with Meridian Tapping
Sat 27 Feb - John Bullough on Building Thriving and Loving Relationships with Meridian Tapping
Sun 28 Feb - Emma Roberts on Meridian Tapping for Cancer Support.

This presentation covers the vital importance of being able to 'get yourself out of the way' when using EFT, whether on your own or when working with clients. The handout provides background to some of the concepts covered in the presentation. STOP PRESS: Unfortunately I had to cancel my presentation at the last minute due to illness, but I thought I'd leave my handout here as I plan to develop it into a book in the coming months.

This is a groundbreaking new book on EFT which I co-edited and compiled with Pamela Bruner in 2009, with more than 500 pages of innovative ideas on EFT and tapping by 27 internationaly acclaimed experts, including articles by 22 of the 29 EFT Masters from around the world.
I'm biased of course, but I see this as a 'must have' book for any regular user of tapping and/or EFT.
