My approach to counselling is integrative, which means I have the flexibility to draw upon a range of therapeutic approaches that best suit your unique needs and goals, this may be talking therapy, somatic approaches, creative approaches, inner child work or Parts Work. As a trauma-informed practitioner I will provide psychoeducation that will empower you throughout your recovery as it is helpful for clients to understand why they feel and act the way they do, and stabilisation techniques to develop better coping strategies for an internal sense of safety when you may find yourself activated and anxious. I will not be directive, as the nature of trauma is the loss of power and control, and I believe you the client need to feel in control of your recovery. By tailoring our sessions to your specific requirements, we can navigate your therapeutic journey in a way that resonates with you. Additionally, I adopt a relational approach, recognising the significance of establishing a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. Through empathy and compassion, I aim to create a safe space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions openly. This approach sets the foundation for making meaningful progress, helping you achieve your goals and unlock your full potential.
