About Me
Hello, and welcome. I’m Gillian, a compassionate and experienced counsellor dedicated to supporting people through life’s challenges. My approach blends professional expertise with a warm, holistic perspective, creating a safe space where you can feel heard, understood, and held.
I am a qualified Counsellor, a trained EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) Practitioner, and skilled in the NADA 5-Point Protocol. These tools allow me to tailor support to your individual needs, whether you are navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, stress, or personal growth.
My philosophy is simple: healing happens when we feel safe, seen, and supported — in both mind and body.
I believe in working with the whole person, integrating emotional, physical, and nervous system approaches to help you restore balance, resilience, and a deeper sense of self.
