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.
I have vast experience listening to many, many peoples parenting stories. Thus I feel I have a good understanding of the common parenting problems and issues, and how they can impact you and your children when experiencing them. I can support you to find connection, strength and empowerment within your parenting to restore balance, happiness and inner peace.
I can do this by using 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.

Jade at We Tackle Trauma

Hello, I am a child development, behaviour, education, and regulatory specialist; ready to support you in your parenting journey. I offer 20-years of professional experience; as a nanny, youth worker, teacher (in child development, health and mental health, behavioural and disability education), youth-sector project manager, health and mental health sector leader.
I have provided child wellbeing and care advice at the highest level. That includes advising Australian and British government on child wellbeing, development, health and mental health. As a multiply qualified professional, my parenting advice integrates best practice from Social Work, Teaching, and Sociology; enabling me to provide advice and support that considers all aspects of your child’s wellbeing and your relationship dynamic. I work with an intersectional lens to understand your unique life journey and your child’s/ren’s personal needs and life lens; I therefore tailor support according to family learning and processing styles. This includes being able to provide specialist support related to disability, behaviour, neurodiversity, and families experiencing marginalisation, trauma, or other isolation.
I offer out-of-hours appointments, enabling you to access support at the weekends or whenever you require. I proudly work with all family types, just make contact to arrange a free consultation chat.
