Natalie Jane - Narcissistic Abuse & Relationship Recovery Counsellor
Counsellor/Therapist
Addiction can leave you feeling trapped between wanting to stop and feeling unable to. Drawing on my addictions counselling training, I help you understand what the behaviour is doing for you, build practical relapse-prevention strategies and work on the feelings underneath, without shame or lectures.

Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
Addiction often develops as a coping mechanism for dealing with unresolved trauma. Substances can provide temporary relief from emotional pain, anxiety and depression. However, reliance on these substances can lead to a dependency and exacerbate a person's challenges. By providing psycho education to my client's about trauma and addiction we can help demystify your experience and this provides a framework for understanding your challenges. Psychoeducation can cover topics like how trauma affects the brain, the cycle of addiction and coping mechanisms. Knowledge empowers my clients to engage actively in your recovery. Mindfulness and grounding exercises can help you stay present and manage any overwhelming emotions, reducing anxiety and enhancing self-awareness. These techniques can help you cope with triggers and stressors. I encourage you to build a support network as this can provide emotional backing and practical assistance, reinforcing the therapeutic process. Working with addiction in a trauma informed way is a compassionate and effective approach that addresses the root cause of your addiction.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying), CSAT
I help clients facing both substance and process addictions, including sex and love addiction. In our sessions, we'll explore your experiences and work together to process pain, find clarity, and begin healing—drawing on both my Gestalt training and 15 years in criminal defense. Many clients begin to feel relief and clarity within the first few sessions.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
Some of the women I work with came to therapy for something else entirely, the loneliness, the exhaustion of building a life abroad, and found, a few sessions in, that alcohol or another substance had quietly become the way they were coping. Others already know that's part of what brought them here. Either way, I don't work from a place of judgement. Being far from the structures and relationships that used to hold you together can make any coping habit harder to see and harder to put down. We look at what the substance is actually doing for you, not only at stopping.
