PELLA Wellness.
Registered Psychotherapist, Amanda Guilfoyle. M.Gestalt T. B.SocSci (Couns)
As a trauma informed therapist I hold your experience gently and work at a pace that is suitable for you to move through your deepest , darkest and most shattering experiences. I use psycho education to keep you informed about the changes in the brain from trauma. Using a combination of Gestalt therapy , Poly vagal theory and other modalities which might suit your particular experience you are taught new ways to navigate triggers and self regulate. With the right support you may be able to integrate what has happened to you rather than the event continually getting in the way of how you would like to be .

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 critical incident trauma response, restorative justice, family violence, sexual abuse and mental health, I have a good understanding of all kinds of trauma (recent or past) and how they impact the person including the potential impacts for those around them. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your trauma impacts better and learn practical strategies to support increased emotional regulation skills, along with specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session. This comprehensive strategy supports greater healing of the underlying trauma 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 anger, guilt or shame behind.
My aim is to assist you with your trauma 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.
