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
Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
Living with chronic pain is exhausting. It wears down your body, your patience, and your spirit. You've seen the doctors, tried the treatments, and maybe you've been told "it's all in your head." Here's the truth: even if it's not caused by your mind, it's processed by your mind. And that's where hypnotherapy can help.
In a deeply relaxed state, we work with your brain to turn down the volume on pain signals, release tension you've been holding for years, and give your nervous system a break it desperately needs. We don't erase your condition but we can change how you experience it.
Less suffering. More living.

Our immediate goal is to help alleviate emotional pain and confusion and to build self confidence and coping skills. To do this we specialise in short, to long term, psychodynamic psychotherapy which consist of a series of conversations between you and your therapist.
These conversations are conducted with sensitivity, warmth and understanding in the confidential space of our consulting rooms or if preferred via Telehealth.
