Sometimes you can be so overwhelmed with stress that you have trouble prioritising your own needs. You don't know where to start to make things better. You might know that you are safe now – and that the past is over – but parts of you just don’t seem to believe it. Maybe it feels as if you've been stranded in patterns of response that only complicate things, rather than help them. But all your efforts to change don't go anywhere. You may know that you have experienced early life and chronic trauma, but knowing this hasn't yet helped to soothe all the distressing patterns, thoughts, feelings and impulses that come from that trauma.
Imagine what it will be like to be able to collaborate with and no longer fear parts of your self. In my mode of working, you will not be required to go back over the details of any traumatic experiences. This is because I will be working with your survival responses, and not the events. The focus is on mindful, inner communication with all of who you are.
My job is to gently support you as you begin a process of inner dialogue and awareness that soothes your inner conflicts and allows you to thrive. When you’re ready to be curious and feel relief from your stressful cycles of overwhelm, get in touch. Give me a call today for a free 15 min consultation, or send an email, and we can set up that first session.

Groups
Lemon Balm Clinic Creative Writing Circle
Writing can be a powerfully healing and transformative tool. Like caterpillars with their imaginal cells, we too can dissolve and then entirely reconfigure our experiences into something special and wholly new. But we need emotional safety to do this. My writing groups are trauma-informed, and combine the traditional creative writing workshop with an expressive writing focus. The next 8 week group starts on Monday 19 June, 2023, and costs $180/ $120 concession for the full 8 weeks. Contact me by the end of Monday 12 June to qualify for the early bird discount rates of $120/ $80 concession.
