My clients often struggle with unprocessed trauma, intertwined with shame, guilt, anxiety and depression. They need a safe space to explore trauma without judgment, develop healthy coping strategies, and process shame to rebuild self-worth. They want to break free from destructive cycles, feel worthy of love, rebuild relationships, and find purpose. They seek transformation - not just symptom management but fundamental healing to reclaim their life beyond addiction, lived experience and/or any related pain, grief, loss, shame, anxiety, depression or anger.
With 14 yrs experience, I offer trauma-informed integrative therapy to explore the underlying issues behind my clients struggles. I specialize in trauma processing, shame/guilt work, anxiety, depression and rebuilding self-worth. With NCPS-accreditation, I provide a warm, non-judgmental space using personalised approaches that honour my clients unique needs.
You don't have to face this alone. I understand how isolating pain of any kind, addiction and/or trauma can feel, but your courage to consider reaching out shows inner strength. You deserve compassionate support - you and your story matter and healing is possible. If you feel ready to take the first step, please contact me today. Thanks, Steven

As a counsellor and psychotherapist, I've developed an integrative model of practice that draws from person-centred, psychodynamic and solution-focused approaches. I believe therapeutic techniques are best tailored to each client's unique needs, lived experience and circumstance, and I've found an integrative approach best provides the flexibility to do this.
