David Road Scottburgh Scottburgh 4180
Counselling Sexologist & Certified TRE Provider. As a Registered Counsellor and Certified TRE(Tension, Stress, and Trauma Releasing Exercises) Provider, I offer a safe and integrative space for your personal journey. My practice is dedicated to supporting individuals through the complexities of relationships and sexuality, and in navigating the profound impact of trauma. Whether you're seeking to heal, discover, or express your authentic self, I provide a humanistic approach that focuses on uncovering, acknowledging, and embracing your personal truth.
My therapeutic approach is broad and flexible; sessions may take place on the proverbial 'couch' or outside in nature, depending on what best supports your process. Either way, I offer support that's deeply informed not only by academic study, but also by my passion & experience of being huiman, across time, countries, and cultures.
Understanding trauma's effects on both the body and mind, I integrate the powerful somatic practice of TRE. This approach helps you access your body's natural ability to release deep-seated tension and stress, working directly with the physical body to offer a path to healing that complements traditional talk therapy.
