Chronic Pain
The Becoming Practice
Counsellor/Therapist, M Couns; BSocSc (Psychology)

Chronic Pain
Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
I have helped those suffering chronic pain through hypnotherapy and developmental ways to improve the mind to control pain thresholds and even suppress pain at their root nerve, muscle, or somatic or physical fibre levels. Also to help reframing a negative outlook to one of a more positive hope for the future.

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.
