Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Chronic pain often reflects a nervous system stuck in activation or survival responses (fight/flight/freeze). SE helps regulate these states, release held tension, and reduce the body’s stress load, which can ease pain and improve overall functioning.

Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
Living with chronic illness means navigating not just physical symptoms, but also the emotional weight of uncertainty, loss, and adaptation. I understand that chronic illness can reshape your identity, relationships, and sense of the future in ways that others may not fully grasp. Whether you’re struggling with grief over the life you had planned, the isolation of invisible symptoms, the frustration of medical systems, or the challenge of advocating for yourself while managing pain and fatigue—you don’t have to face this alone.
In our work together, I provide a space where your full experience is welcome. We’ll honor both your resilience and your struggles, without pressure to “stay positive” or minimize what you’re going through. My approach integrates understanding of the mind-body connection, trauma-informed care, and practical strategies for living meaningfully within your limitations. Together, we can explore identity beyond illness, navigate complex emotions, improve communication with loved ones and providers, and develop sustainable coping tools that respect your energy and capacity.
You deserve support that meets you where you are—with compassion, validation, and genuine understanding of what it means to live in a body that doesn’t always cooperate.

Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
When you have chronic pain or illness, you have to deal with the pain/illness itself as well as the range of negative emotions associated with having a chronic condition. The good news is that hypnotherapy and other mind-body techniques are effective at managing chronic pain, reducing stress, so you can rebuild your coping skills.

Ipswich is the county town of Suffolk and a growing commercial centre, with a diversifying economy that includes financial services, digital industries, and the port sector. Mental health services in the county are provided by Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust, which has faced sustained regulatory scrutiny, making access to timely NHS care difficult and driving many residents toward private therapy as the primary route to support. The University of Suffolk in Ipswich provides counselling services for students and contributes to the local supply of trained therapists through its psychology and counselling programmes. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, workplace stress, and the challenges of semi-rural isolation for those across the broader Suffolk area who travel to Ipswich for services.
