Life's path can be windy and uncertain, where and who do you turn to when there are areas you cant resolve? Counselling is the opportunity to discuss with someone without judgement or advice. Instead we will create a relationship where you will be free to make your own choices and decisions which benefit you. Have you ever wondered who you could be? Where you're heading or why life hasn't been how you would have liked? Let's take time and be curious about what's happening? I am able to provide short or long term counselling to suit your individual needs. Throughout the sessions we focus on your topic to provide inner calm.

I am a Level 7 integrative therapist trained and experienced in supporting a diverse range of clients. Gestalt Psychotherapy is particularly effective with trauma as it addresses the physical sensations that are often present in someone who has not been able to process it. Psychodynamic therapy is an effective tool to address anxiety, depression and relationship issues as the focus is on how past events and relationships have shaped our identity and resulted in difficulties in the present day. I combine both therapies to develop a partnership and approach tailored to your unique needs and founded on openness, empathy and validation.

Do you overthink everything, worry about what others think, or constantly feel like you’re not good enough? Maybe you feel jealous, fear being rejected, take things personally, or need reassurance that everything is okay. You might find yourself reacting in ways that don’t feel like you, getting overwhelmed by emotions, or regretting how you respond to situations. In therapy, we’ll explore what gets triggered beneath these reactions, helping you understand yourself, feel more secure in your relationships, and learn to manage overwhelming feelings without being controlled by them.

Anxiety has a way of shaping more of your life than you'd like. For some people it looks like panic or physical sensations. For others it looks like compulsive behaviour, not feeling good enough, holding back in relationships, going quiet when they'd want to speak up, or pushing through everything until they're exhausted.
People come to me thinking something is wrong with them, when actually fear is keeping them stuck.

Somatic Counsellors
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
