Approach
To make support reachable, I meet you at home or nearby and keep sessions calm, focused and practical so you feel contained from the first visit. In-session we attend to immediate safety, use brief grounding techniques and then gently work through memories and reactions at the pace you set, pairing emotional processing with clear coping strategies. Between sessions I offer concise tools and occasional check-ins to help skills stick in daily life. This approach tends to suit people needing steady, structured support after sudden or long-term distress.
