Healing Narratives CounsellingRewriting Your Narrative, Embracing Healing
The power of telling your story, in a safe space, allows us to transform the foreign into the familiar—making the unspeakable speakable. Your narrative and yours alone, can bring you awareness and closure.
Welcome to Healing Narratives Counselling
This is where your journey to healing begins. At Healing Narratives Counselling, we believe in the transformative power of rewriting your story. Healing starts with recognizing and understanding the impacts of trauma. This is why trauma-informed care is the core foundation of our counselling services. We get to the root cause of the challenges you’re facing. We don’t just address surface-level symptoms; we dive deep to understand the underlying factors impacting your well-being.

Counselling Approaches
-
A trauma-informed approach to counseling centers on understanding how your past experiences influence your current thoughts and feelings. I provide a supportive space that recognizes and addresses the enduring impact of life's challenging moments on your mental and emotional well-being.
-
Attachment-based counseling focuses on understanding how an individual's early attachment experiences influence their current interpersonal relationships and behaviors.
These early experiences can shape how one relates to others, affecting their ability to form secure and healthy connections.
Attachment-based counseling aims to address these underlying patterns, promoting the development of healthier, secure attachments. This therapeutic approach often involves exploring past relationship dynamics to enhance self-awareness and adjust maladaptive attachment behaviors, facilitating more fulfilling and secure relationships in the present.
-
Schema therapy is a holistic approach that helps you understand and change deep-rooted patterns or "schemas" that influence your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. These schemas are “negative core beliefs” that form in childhood based on your experiences and can affect how you relate to yourself and others. By identifying and addressing these schemas, we can work together to break negative cycles and develop healthier ways of thinking and coping, leading to more fulfilling and balanced relationships and life experiences.
-
A System's approach is like looking at the big picture of your life. It's a way of understanding how your relationships and the world around you influence the way you think, feel, and act. This approach helps us explore the effects of broader factors, like culture and society, on your well-being.
-
We strongly believe in getting to the root-cause of an individual’s issues in order to create long-lasting changes for healing. The root-cause approach in therapy focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying issues rather than just managing surface symptoms. By exploring the origins of emotional patterns and behaviours, this approach promotes deep, long-lasting healing, empowering clients to make meaningful changes that align with their true selves.
