Counselling Approaches
Providing Everything You Need
Somatic Experiencing® is a pioneering body-based approach to overcoming trauma, shock and other stress disorders.
It is the life’s work of American psychotherapist Dr. Peter A. Levine, combining the fruits of his study of stress physiology, psychology, ethology, biology, neuroscience, indigenous healing practices, and medical biophysics alongside over 45 years of successful clinical application.
The SE approach aims to safely release traumatic shock 'frozen' in the body at times of overwhelm, allowing for a natural transformation of both PTSD and the wounds of emotional and early childhood trauma. https://www.seauk.org.uk
IFS was developed by psychologist Richard Schwartz who as a family therapist, began to observe patterns in how people described their inner lives and the conflicted feelings or parts that resided within them. He began to see the mind as a family, and the feelings/parts as family members interacting with one another. Exploring how these components functioned with one another was the foundation for IFS and the idea of the core Self.
Eden Energy Medicine and Psychology
Physical and emotional health influence one another in powerful ways. Physical problems whose roots trace to emotional difficulties. Emotional difficulties may also interfere with physical healing. Energy Psychology offers focused tools to work with Fear, Anxiety, loss of drive and many other conditions.
To further support your healing, I integrate Eden Energy Medicine (EEM) into my sessions. Eden Energy Medicine works with the body’s subtle energy systems to remove blockages and restore balance. Trauma can create energetic disturbances that contribute to emotional and physical symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, or fatigue. Through EEM techniques, I help clients:
-
Calm the nervous system and release blocked energy
-
Reconnect with their body’s natural rhythms and vitality
-
Develop greater emotional resilience and a sense of empowerment
