Compassionate Steps towards Wholeness…
Trauma, Grief, Loss and Anxiety Counselling (Online)
Gentle Path Counselling offers a safe space to explore life’s hardest moments, from grief and trauma to burnout and life transitions. Together, we’ll work on building resilience, improving self-esteem, managing stress, and navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties. We walk gently toward healing, clarity, and renewal.
I take an integrative and client-centered approach, drawing on therapeutic frameworks such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Somatic regulation. My clients are people seeking compassionate support, honest reflection, and practical tools for resilience.
Client Experience
Healing is both an individual and relational process. A solid therapeutic relationship provides the structure and safety needed for effective work, and I aim to offer a space where you feel understood, grounded, and respected.
In our sessions, we focus on your goals, your pace, and your lived experience. I work collaboratively, drawing on trauma-informed principles to support clarity, stability, and sustainable change.
You can expect consistency, professionalism, and a non-judgemental environment where your emotions and boundaries are taken seriously.
If at any point it becomes clear that another approach or practitioner may better meet your needs, I will discuss this with you openly and help facilitate appropriate next steps. Ensuring you receive the right support is central to ethical and effective care.
My Services
Areas we may explore together
Nervous System Regulation
I help you return to a sense of internal safety and balance through simple, grounding techniques that calm overwhelm and reduce reactivity.
Somatic healing
A gentle, body-based approach that reconnects you with physical sensations, supports release of stored tension, and invites deeper emotional integration.
Breath, Movement, Voice & Sensation
We use natural tools already within you , breathwork, gentle movement, your voice, and sensory awareness ,to process emotions and reconnect with your body’s wisdom.
Self-esteem, identity and confidence
Together we explore the beliefs that shape your self-view, rebuilding confidence and supporting a stronger, more grounded sense of identity.
Stress, anxiety and burnout support
We identify the roots of overwhelm and develop practical tools to restore clarity, energy, and emotional stability.
Inner child and attachment work
I support clients in identifying how early attachment patterns and unmet childhood needs influence current relationships, emotional responses, and coping strategies. Through structured, trauma-informed techniques, we work to strengthen internal safety, develop healthier relational patterns, and build a more secure sense of self.
Boundaries, needs and values
We work to recognise your personal limits, honour your needs, and align your life with what truly matters to you.
Processing grief and loss
A compassionate, steady space to navigate grief in all its forms, from bereavement to life transitions and unspoken losses.
Cultivating resilience and self-awareness
Building your capacity to understand emotions, respond with intention, and move through challenges with greater clarity and strength.
Couples coaching/counselling
I help partners speak, listen, and understand one another more deeply, supported by trained mediation skills in Non-Violent Communication.
