Melina Therapy Counselling & Wellness Coaching

Individual counselling is for anyone who is struggling with emotional problems or personal issues and is beneficial for anyone. If you are feeling overwhelmed and your existing coping mechanisms no longer work, one-to-one counselling offers you a confidential environment in which you can explore your psychological needs in a safe and open way. I am here to 'walk' with you and to support you, so that you can let go of pain and begin your process of healing. I have access to a wide range of therapeutic tools to help you on your way. Your counselling can be short to longer term, depending on your need, always tailor made, always gentle and always at a pace that feels right for you. It's your therapy, your journey.   

If you are suffering from historical trauma, PTSD or a recent traumatic event, you don't have to feel alone any more, I can help. I have a deep understanding of the sensitivity and complexity of the impact of trauma. Trauma therapy is very close to my own heart and led me to work extensively with clients suffering from psychological trauma and PTSD, in particular in the areas of sexual abuse, sexual violence and rape. I am a qualified Self-Regulation for Resilience Instructor, integrating mind and bodywork such as breathwork and meditation to enable clients to feel safe in their bodies again. I have crafted my own safe, empathic and compassionate approach that is grounded in neuroscience, integrated therapies and healing techniques.

The reasons why couples and intimate partners seek relationship counselling can vary: communication, recurring conflict, sexual difficulties, relationship dynamics, infidelity, separation, to name a few. Relationship therapy can offer you, individually, or together a safe space where you can be listened to and heard, to explore difficult issues, knowing that I am professional and impartial to each person. With an optimal combination of relationship skills and techniques to support you all on your relationships journey. 

Wellness Coaching is beneficial for anyone and focuses on your emotional, physiological and behavioural health - and how these elements link together and impact on your health and well-being. I can help you if you are feeling anxious, stressed and burnt-out, lost, over-whelmed and don't know where to start or you have slipped into unhealthy habits that are impacting your self-esteem. You may have a specific goal, or need help to find balance, energy and some kind of order in your life. We can focus on your holistic wellness to help you adopt a more positive lifestyle that is bespoke and right for you - to enable you to make behaviour changes to support your goals. I have an optimum combination of coaching and holistic therapies, grounded in neuroscience and blended with eastern philosophy to support you in your journey towards healing and wellness.
