Chronic Pain
Irene Valis
Counsellor/Therapist, Gestalt Psychotherapist, PACFA Certified Counsellor, Life Coach
I experienced chronic fatigue at the beginning of motherhood which lasted for up to 6 years. After many consultations and trying various supplements, restrictive diets and mindset shifts, I felt like I wasn't making meaningful progress.
Over time, I came to understand the role my nervous system, stress and the way I was relating to my body were playing in my experience.
Through my own personal journey and professional training, I have supported many women navigating experiences of hip and back pain, headaches, migraines, sweating, insomnia, fatigue, brain fog, IBS and Long COVID.
If you have an open mind and want to develop greater agency in how you understand and respond to your experience, I would love to support you in this process of awareness, regulation and resourcing with the potential to support greater ease, mobility and wellbeing.

Chronic Pain
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, 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 nursing and mental health, I have a good understanding of various diagnoses and how they impact the person and the potential impacts for those around them required to support them. This makes it easier for you to not feel you need to provide detailed explanation the diagnosis, rather focusing on what you actually wish to discuss to use your session time in a way that fits best for you. If I have any question about the diagnosis etc, I will only ask specifically regarding that missing piece of information to assist my understanding so I can support you best.
I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of many health issues including chronic pain, which for many clients can be eliminated completely.
My aim is to then assist you with your life difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with 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.
