About therapy

How we work together.

As an Integrative counsellor, I use a mixture of approaches such as Person Centred, Gestalt and CBT all grounded in being Trauma Informed.

I am also trained in somatic therapy, a certified shame practitioner and Emotional Freedom Technique practitioner. These modalities work with the nervous system including ways to support it to return more easily to feeling safe from flight, fight, fawn or freeze.

How I work

Trauma-informed, and shaped around you.

01

Different for each person

This mixture of approaches will be different for each person and in my experience offers a more holistic approach. (See blog for further information.)

02

Trust and safety first

I work on building trust and safety within our therapeutic relationship before traumatic experiences are explored or worked through.

03

Calm and grounded

Supporting you to resource yourself, develop tolerance of distressing emotions and ways to regulate yourself to feel calm and grounded.

I have extensive experience of counselling adults and young people to feel less fearful and distressed.

In our sessions

Together, at your own pace.

Together, in sessions we can explore situations you find difficult at your own pace, gaining a greater understanding for the reasons why and find practical, physical and emotional ways of coping differently so these feel less scary and overwhelming.

Through our work people become more accepting of themselves and looking to the future with increased resilience and confidence.

  • Person Centred, Gestalt and CBT, all trauma-informed
