About me
At Three Oaks Therapy, I understand that life can present a range of challenges, from relationship difficulties and anxiety to stress, depression, and bereavement. I offer a safe, supportive, and confidential space for individuals to explore their experiences and work towards positive change.
My approach is pluralistic, drawing on a range of therapeutic modalities to tailor treatment to your specific needs. I am also working polyvagal informed, which means I incorporate an understanding of the nervous system and how it responds to stress and trauma into my practice. In addition, I am trained in the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP).
The SSP is a music-based intervention designed to support individuals in regulating their nervous system. It uses specially filtered music to stimulate the vagus nerve, which plays a key role in social engagement and emotional regulation. By gently exercising the auditory pathways, the SSP can help improve emotional regulation, reduce anxiety, and enhance social connection. It can be particularly helpful for those experiencing sensory sensitivities, social anxiety, or difficulty with emotional regulation.
I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and strive to create a warm and empathetic environment where you feel comfortable and understood.
I offer counselling and psychotherapy for a variety of issues, including:
* Anxiety and stress
* Depression
* Bereavement and loss
* Trauma
* Low self-esteem
* Work-related stress
* Life transitions
Whether you're struggling with a specific issue or simply seeking personal growth, I can help you develop coping strategies, gain self-awareness, and build a more fulfilling life.
I offer both in-person sessions and online therapy for clients. Please feel free to contact me for a free initial consultation to discuss your needs and how I can help.
