Welcome to Integrated Counselling and Somatic Therapy. A question for you: if you take a moment to slow down and gently pause... (perhaps notice your breathing), may I ask, what is most important to you? Knowing the answer is sometimes easy, sometimes elusive. It usually lights the way forward. If you are struggling with unresolved trauma, anxiety, grief, relationship or career issues, or feeling dissatisfied with life, growth and healing are possible. If you'd like to learn more, you can also go to: www.benbasscounselling.com.
I combine a trauma-informed mixture of cognitive (talk) and somatic (body-centred) therapies that support you to safely heal your past, your nervous system and obtain clarity regarding your next step. You'll learn essential skills that develop your inner and outer awareness, increase your resilience and sustain you as you approach your solutions.
If you are interested in healing relational, developmental or shock trauma, or simply getting through a place in your life where you feel stuck, I can help. Individual and couple sessions both 65 minutes. Sliding scale available. Life can be challenging, even at the best of times. Healing, change and growth are possible...

Ben Bass is an extraordinary therapist, who's stillness creates space for the exploration of emotions, relational patterns, and new possibilities. While working with him I was able to unpack and gain clarity about things I've struggled with my whole life.

Ben has a rare talent for perceiving crucial details, which can be easy to miss, and use his observations to shed light on what path will be most helpful. Clarity of mind/body is a key part of healing and growth. Ben unites these with profound effect.
