Our Therapies
Counselling & Psychotherapy
We use person centred counselling and psychotherapy to help clients achieve their goals. Talking therapies can help with self empowerment and achieving long lasting goals. All of the therapy we offer is underpinned by a holistic integrative approach.
EMDR Therapy
We use EMDR therapy as a specialist treatment for PTSD, Trauma, Phobias and Anxiety. EMDR helps re-establish connections between our left and right brain functions therefore enabling us to process traumatic experiences and move forward with our lives.
Body Psychotherapy
Body or somatic therapy is a way of working which honours the body's role in trauma work, tinnitus, anxiety and depression. The mind and the body are connected and influence each other. We therefore help with both as part of our holistic therapeutic approach.
Cranio-Sacral Therapy
We use Cranio-Sacral Therapy to help the flow of energy, release energy held in the nervous system and help you to relax. This a great therapy for anxiety, TMJ problems, trauma and tinnitus.
