Charles Nwaokorie is the founder and owner of MVODA COUNSELLING SERVICE.
MVODA counselling offers counselling services to male victims of domestic abuse, young men who are violent within their intimate relationships and own home, as well as a range of therapeutic approaches to provide services for individuals, couples and cross-cultural counselling.
Charles' lifelong curiosity in the human condition, combined with a desire to understand human psychological pain,
drew him to train as a counsellor and a psychotherapist in 2010. Terms such as ‘process' and ‘readiness’ were frequently used in that first year of training by trainers and trainees. Actually, their meaning baffled and intrigued him, up to that time he had made sense of the world with his head, feelings (apart from sadness) had been disallowed. He perceived them in others as messy and threatening and had taught himself a way of living that required little or no reliance on them.
Consequently, the first and most exigent phase of becoming a person centred psychotherapist, lay in the integration of his personality. This entailed becoming aware of and thus assimilating those disallowed feelings and concealed characteristics of himself. This process of gaining a solid sense of self is ongoing and he suspects it's a life long journey.
Charles received B.Sc Honours degree in counselling and psychotherapy and he is an accredited member of IACP, it has been a challenging but ultimately worthwhile and beneficial experience. During his studies he managed to integrate many views of human functioning and behaviour, psycho-dynamic humanistic and cognitive.
Finally, Charles firmly believes in the value of regular use of supervision. Within this supportive and collegial relationship, he works through any blind spots, assumptions and agendas that may emerge. He also finds it an ideal forum for bringing about change in any potentially damaging inclinations that may unduly influence his clients. He views it as a basic ingredient in ethical practitioner for the reasons that it safeguards the welfare of his clients by monitoring his professional practice, enhancing competence and developing his ‘internal supervisor'.
Incorporating various approaches to psychotherapy, allows him to be more flexible in terms of tailoring treatment to each unique client. It also enhances his ability to suggest specific therapeutic interventions for each of their identified problems. He is committed to on-going training, workshops and courses with a view to being as competent a psychotherapist as he can be.
Ultimately, Charles has an expectation that positive change will result from his ability to form a relationship of trust with his client, combined with the appropriate use of skills learned and theories and treatment approaches. As a final point, He continues to have the utmost respect for the integrity of those that come to him to seek change.
