Domestic Abuse or Violence
Debbie Debonaire
Counsellor/Therapist, BA Hons, IMTTA, Heartmath Coach
Domestic abuse or violence, addressed through Domestic Violence Counseling, is a specialized area dedicated to helping survivors escape, heal from, and rebuild their lives after experiencing abuse. This therapeutic approach is crucial for individuals who have endured physical, emotional, or psychological harm within intimate relationships. As a trauma-informed therapist, I include interventions like trauma-focused cognitive-behavioural therapy (TF-CBT), safety planning, and support groups to empower survivors, restore their sense of safety and self-worth, and assist them in navigating legal and social services and providing a lifeline to those affected by domestic violence, fostering recovery and resilience. I create a safe environment where women (and men) feel free to discuss how domestic abuse is affecting their lives and guide them on how to find the strength and courage to remove themselves away from such an environment through the use of holistic strategies known to help so that they can build up their emotional resilience to have more confidence to believe that they are worth much more than the situation they find themselves in. This, in turn, will give them the potential knowledge and guidance to feel safe and happy.

Domestic Abuse or Violence
Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
If you're going to focus on what's causing you stress, staying focused on the present is the best way to do it.
Based on the latest neuroscience, my approach is usually centred on the high points of an individual's life, and it involves recalling those times when they were at their best. This allows us to recreate the feelings that they experienced.
One of the most effective ways to start working is to focus on the positive instead of the negative feelings that you experienced in the past. For instance, ask yourself if you made the best decisions when you were feeling low.
Although most people aren't broken, they may be struggling with a mismatch between their expectations and their feelings. This could be because their brain doesn't always align with their emotions. It's also possible that external factors have caused them to feel low.
If you're feeling low, it could be because your self-esteem has taken a nose-dive or you're not able to cope with the situation. Our thoughts and emotions often determine our behaviour. It's important to remember that we can only become the best version of ourselves if we can control our emotions and thoughts.
It's possible that your thoughts are preventing you from achieving the best version of yourself. If this is the case, then why not let me help you overcome the issues that are holding you back?

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns), Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in restorative justice, family violence, sexual abuse and mental health, I have a good understanding of family violence and relationship harm issues and how they impact the person experiencing them as well as the person using those behaviours. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your inner feelings and experiences, and to learn practical strategies for greater safety and coping. I can also utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support healing of the underlying trauma of your experiences, without the need to discuss the details of the trauma. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self, leaving often the carried sense of shame behind.
My aim is to assist you with your difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
