Trauma Therapy & Counselling
Where confronting traumas from your past empowers you to flourish in the present and future.
“I believe everyone is unique and I’m fully invested in you and the transformation we can bring about in your life when we work together.”
Alex Carling, Trauma Therapist and Brainspotting Practitioner
What is “Trauma Therapy & Counselling”?
Ultimately, trauma therapy and counselling is holding time and space for you to work through your life challenges.
You see, all the tools you need to live your healthiest life have always been within you. But sometimes, life events and experiences can create a block between you and your inner resources, effective coping mechanisms and energy.
When you work with me, you’ll experience a holistic style of trauma therapy that maximises results. I believe in it 100%. The way I work brings your mind and body together, it provides you with the opportunity to learn the non-verbal language of your body, bringing you back on track and supporting your full potential.
I combine talking therapy, mindfulness, Brainspotting and psychological education. These processes help you reclaim what is lost or blocked - they put you back in the driving seat of your life.
How Can You Work With Me?
