About me and my therapy practice
I am an experienced and Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ accredited therapist.
I offer a warm, non-judgemental and safe environment in which you can explore what has happened to you and how it is affecting you. We will work at a pace and depth that feels comfortable for you. I work holistically, taking into account your physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing, and will seek to understand how your difficulties are impacting your wider life.
I use a combination of therapeutic approaches in an informed way to help you make sense of your experiences and to help you determine what and how you would like to change, so can you can move forward in life. For therapy to be effective there may be times when I need to gently challenge you, but I will always support you as we work through those things that are difficult for you.
I offer both short and long term therapy. I am privileged to have experience in working with a wide range of problems, including relationship issues (family dynamics, separation, divorce and bereavement), anxiety, depression, shame and unhelpful behavioural choices. I am a qualified trauma practitioner and support clients who have experienced childhood sexual abuse, domestic abuse and violence, bullying, traumatic illness or injury or where life challenges have built up over time so that they now feel overwhelming. You will feel heard, understood and supported as you work through your experiences.
I offer a free 30 minute consultation on Zoom to see if we will be a 'good fit'. To arrange this email me at lynn.hickman63@protonmail.com. My website https://www.ridethewavescounselling.co.uk also contains a contact form.
