1:1 Integrated Health Sessions

Integrated Health Consultation | Online | In Person

​

If you like the sound of this integrated approach to health and wellbeing, a 1:1 session can be a good place to start. This approach is highly individualised, depending on what it is you are wanting to get out of the sessions. In general I categorise sessions as either Somatic Counselling or Physio-led Clinical Yoga (more info below) however, there is often overlap. Often, we take a more coaching approach to sessions, sometimes we only talk, sometimes we do lots of movement, it really depends on the session. If you're not sure, just get in touch and we can have a chat. Appointments are available online through our VIRTUAL CONSULTING ROOM or  FACE to FACE

Somatic Counselling | Somatic Therapy 

​

In somatic counselling we work with the whole of the person, online or in-person.

​​

It is traditional 'talking' counselling but with a very practical elements to physically affect the body and therefore the mind. Often in today's world we use our brain and 'logic' to such an extent that we have forgotten the wisdom of the body and therefore our intuition. We can no longer differentiate between anxiety and excitement, between discomfort and pain. As we strengthen our body-mind connection, and start to regulate the nervous system, we connect with ourselves again.

​

​​These somatic techniques are derived from my professional experience in yoga and in mindful based practices as well as those practices drawn from psychological somatics in my Somatic Counselling training. This stabilisation alone can often offer some relief from symptoms and be robust starting point on a path of healing to feel life more fully, or overcoming a particular event. A we build relational and nervous system stability, we might take a deeper dive and explore processing drawn from numerous disciplines such as internet family systems, bi-lateral processing and somatic processing, as examples.

​

This is a very forward facing approach to therapy. So we don't just stay in the past, we apply what we have learn to your present and your future.

​

Sessions are 75minutes* so we have time to explore your story in depth at the same time as learning practical somatic techniques as we progress along this healing path.

​

Sessions are available online, so you can work with me virtually in our beautiful clinic from  wherever you are in the world. Or  you can attend in person in our peaceful space in the Scottish highlands.

If you like the sounds of the somatic side of things, but don't feel that you want to embark on a counselling journey, why not try our Clinical Yoga 1:1 sessions. There is more movement, less talking :-).

Physio-led Clinical Yoga | Yoga Inspired Physiotherapy

​

In Clinical Yoga, or Yoga inspired Physiotherapy! When we first meet, we will conduct a full Physiotherapy-based assessment and thorough history, including mental and physical health; a discussion of aims and how best to achieve them. This might be to improve a specific injury; promote recovery; improve general physical and psychological wellbeing; cope with stress; recovery after surgery/ill-health; recovery after labour; improve balance; improve mobility...etc etc.

​

Following this assessment, we will create a video of a personalised programme curated for your needs to promote the practice of the session at home. We will then devise a follow-up plan. You might want ongoing development, or you might simply want a yoga programme to practice at home. All is welcome.

 

If you are unsure whether the Clinical Yoga Programme or Somatic Counselling is for you, starting on this track can be a really good option. We get to learn about your history and so can determine the best course of action whether through Clinical Yoga or Somatic Counselling. It's also a really good opportunity to check we both feel at ease in each other's company, as this is really important in a longer therapeutic relationship. If you decide that that Somatic Counselling track is for you, the video that we create for your home practice will be aligned with this.

 

We will be moving in this assessment, so please wear clothes which are easy to move in. No yoga experience necessary.
