Ms Sarah Hanison
Psychotherapist (Registered)
“I’m an accredited psychotherapist with over 15 years experience in a wide range of issues working in person or online.”
About Me
Approach
My training is integrated within the major theoretical frameworks (psychodynamic, humanistic, existential, transpersonal) with a particular focus on the transpersonal.
This means that I work under an umbrella of different methods to create a grounded and holistic approach to the work I do.
As well as the traditional 'talking cure,' I work creatively and may incorporate the following into our work together: EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Matrix Reimprinitng, Matrix Birth Reimprinting, multi-modal CBT, mindfulness and meditation, body and breath work, creative visualisation, symbolic drawing and art, and exploration of personal dreams and archetypal material.
Ask a quick question or arrange a time to meet.
Services
I have been in practice for over 10 years working with wide range of problems including depression, low self esteem, anxiety, trauma, dissociation, abuse, life transitions and purpose and meaning in life.
I have a special interest in women's psychological health, and in particular the following:
- The archetypal stages of a woman's life.
- A transformative experience of menstruation, peri-menopause and menopause.
- Pregnancy and motherhood: what happens to a woman's identity at this time, pre and post natal illness/depression, birth trauma, loss of a baby.
