We help young people, adults, families and couples towards secure relationships, to learn to live more comfortably with themselves and others and to develop emotional regulation and resilience. Through our work in relational and attachment trauma healing and recovery we have become neuro informed and better able to understand the sensory profiles and personal challenges of those with ADHD and ASD, giftedness, twice and multiple exceptionality & sensory issues. Neuro diversity can so often be co-occurring with relational trauma and knowing why can be particularly facilitating for therapeutic outcomes.

We have a particular interest in working relationally with neuro diverse and sensitive clients because of our own lived experience.  Why some of us are more susceptible to relational trauma underpins the continual development of our work, but the science ( the neuro biology ) is always woven with acceptance, warmth and compassion.

We are all different; our genetics and everything that has ever happened to us creates a uniqueness. This is why we work Integratively, drawing from different techniques from different therapeutic modalities to respond to the affective, behavioural, cognitive and psychological aspects of you and your process.

Working with feelings, thoughts and behaviours, observing the body as well as the mind, we find that we ourselves become integrated; we become a fuller and more authentic version of ourselves.

Here are some of things that we can work on developing in therapy:

• A self soothing, kind, encouraging and supportive inner voice.
• Self awareness and respect.
• Awareness of patterns of behaviour that no longer serve.
• A feeling of safety, security.
• Healthy boundaries.
• Goal setting.
• Sensory Profiling
• Connection with ourselves and with others.
• Compassion for shamed and hidden parts of ourselves.
• Purpose and meaning, pleasure and joy.
• An awareness and knowledge of sensation, an acceptance and modulation of our emotions and ability to use them as our guide for well being.
• Improved levels of anxiety.
• A feeling of empowerment.
• To understand your stress and to build a bespoke prescription of self care, to know what you need to take care of yourself.
• Knowledge of helpful research and psychological education.
• Practical strategies.
