Domestic Abuse
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 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.
