Melanie Holland

Therapeutic Counselor

“Experienced BACP registered Integrative therapist using a trauma informed approach working with a wide range of client issues. I also work online via Zoom with clients all across the UK.”

About Me

As an integrative therapist, I offer a grounded space for you to explore a wide range of life's challenges. My trauma-informed approach means we can gently uncover difficult experiences, helping you make sense of their impact. I guide clients towards new perspectives and lasting change. Working online across the UK ensures support is accessible, whatever your circumstances. This flexible approach allows us to tailor sessions to your unique needs.

Approach

That tailoring shows up in sessions as steady, paced exploration where we gently notice how past experiences shape present reactions. I offer appointments by Zoom from my London practice, working in English with adults across the UK, so practical life demands can shape timing and focus. Sessions blend reflective talking with practical psychoeducation and short take-away strategies, and I often suggest simple between-session practices to help shift patterns safely. People who've faced trauma, loss or anxiety tend to find this measured, collaborative rhythm supportive.
