A neuroscience-informed blend of counselling, psychotherapy, EMDR & coaching to help you feel calmer, clearer and more in control
If you’re experiencing chronic stress, overwhelm or the impact of past experiences, it’s likely that your nervous system is working overtime. That doesn’t mean you’re broken, it means your brain has been doing its best to protect you.
It can be hard to know what kind of help you need. Counselling? Psychotherapy? EMDR? Coaching?
The truth is, you probably need a bit of all of them at different times – which is why I offer one integrative, solution focused service that maximises all of these.
My integrative approach brings together various evidence-based modalities, all grounded in applied neuroscience and brain health:
Counselling & Psychotherapy – to explore emotions, patterns and past experiences (Find out more)
EMDR Therapy – to process trauma and distressing memories safely and effectively (Find out more)
Therapeutic Coaching – to create practical, brain-friendly strategies for your life now and the future (Find out more)
- NLP (Neuro-linguistic-programming) – to update limiting beliefs and support unconscious change
You don’t have to decide what you need in advance. We’ll start where you are and tailor each session as we go.
Who this is for
This integrative approach is particularly effective if you’re experiencing:
Stress, anxiety, overwhelm or burnout
Trauma or the lingering effects of difficult experiences
Chronic worry, people-pleasing or emotional exhaustion
Feeling stuck in survival mode
Trouble switching off, resting or regulating emotions
A desire for change but feeling unsure where to start
You’ll be supported with warmth, clarity and scientific understanding, without jargon, judgment or pressure.
We’ll work at your pace, always within a safe, non-judgemental space where you can show up exactly as you are.
How we might work together
Because your brain and nervous system are unique, no two journeys look the same. Depending on your goals, sessions may include:
Understanding your nervous system and why you feel the way you do
Learning brain-based regulation tools to reduce anxiety and increase safety
EMDR processing for trauma, phobias or stuck emotional patterns
Coaching strategies to help you move forward with confidence
Exploring your values, identity and future direction
Education around stress responses, neuroplasticity and brain health
- NLP & Hypnotherapy techniques to help unconscious change
This work is collaborative so you’ll always know what we’re doing and why, and you’ll have full choice about the pace and depth of our work.
What to expect: the first few sessions
Free 30-minute call
Seeking support takes courage and beginning the journey towards optimum health requires willingness and trust. In order to gain the best results, we need to work together and trust each other. In this initial chat we’ll explore what’s bringing you here, what you’re struggling with, and what you hope will be different. I’ll explain how an integrative, neuroscience-informed approach can support you, and you can decide if it feels like a good fit. If I’m not, I will happily recommend others who may be.
I strongly believe that everyone deserves to be seen, heard, valued and respected. I work with adults from all backgrounds, beliefs and identities and my practice is inclusive of the LGBTQ+ community.
Session 1 – Understanding your nervous system & building safety
From the very first session, we focus on nervous system regulation, introducing simple, science-based strategies to help you feel calmer and more grounded. We’ll also begin mapping your stress responses, patterns and triggers so the work feels understandable and contained.
Session 2 – Clarifying goals & creating a neuroscience-informed plan
We explore what’s been happening in your life, the history behind your experiences, and what changes you’d like to see.
Together, we build a flexible plan drawing on counselling, psychotherapy, EMDR, coaching and NLP in whatever combination supports your brain best.
Session 3 onwards – Integrative therapeutic work
This is where the deeper work unfolds. Depending on what you need, sessions may include EMDR processing, emotional exploration, coaching tools, nervous system education and practical strategies for daily life.
Throughout our work, we check in regularly to ensure the pace feels safe and supportive.
