Our Philosophy
ABOUT THEA
I am a counsellor and body-based (somatic) psychotherapist with special interests in all aspects women’s health, trauma (PTSD, C-PTSD) and couples / relationship therapy. I work collaboratively with my clients to find a place of healing and recovery. I am in it for the long-haul and don’t give up easily. I am not the kind of therapist that is ok with “feeling better” if better is still a long way off being truly well.
That’s why I feel such an affinity with the word ‘wellbeing’. Wellbeing is about much more than the absence of disease or illness. It’s a multidimensional mix of getting your physical, mental, emotional and social health in balance.
I am a noisy advocate about mental health being a part of whole-person health – I believe that we have somehow got into a place where we see physical health in terms of strength and fitness whilst mental health is viewed through a lens of stigma, dysfunction and illness. I work tirelessly to address this imbalance. I started my work in the health and wellbeing space as a specialist Personal Trainer working with women at all ages and stages of life and learned early the profoundly simple connection between our physical and mental state of health. Now I combine that knowledge of anatomy and physiology with my research of how trauma is stored in the body using all sorts of creative approaches to therapy.
