Counselling and Psychotherapy in Redditch

SELF DISCOVERY • RECLAIMING YOUR POWER • PERSONAL CHANGE

‘Together, you and I can walk the path to inner strength’

Hello, my name is Lara and I’m a humanistic-integrative therapist

What does this mean? I use a blend of the theories explained below, whilst keeping in line with my humanistic values. I strongly believe we all have the right to self govern and decide what is best for us (autonomy), but some of us might have experienced trauma, abandonment, abuse, debilitating shame or have a lack of healthy coping strategies to live an authentic life. 

Counselling Approaches

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a short term psychotherapy in which we both work collaboratively to set goals, examine faulty thinking patterns and cognitive distortions resulting in changes to mood and behaviour. It’s scientifically recommended for anxiety disorders and anger Management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

This is a structured program of psychotherapy with a strong educational component designed to provide skills for managing intense emotions, impulse control and negotiating social relationships. It is the treatment of choice for borderline personality disorder (BPD) Autism (ASD) Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (EUPD).

Trauma Focused Therapy

Has unprocessed trauma resulted in chronic pain and fatigue? It is now understood that your body holds on to memories of trauma (somatic). I use the 3 Phases approach to trauma. It is vital to create safety and stability before any processing can begin. My gentle and compassionate approach will help you move towards a more connected self. This can be particularly helpful with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD), Dissociative identity disorder (DID) and complex grief.

Inner Child Work and Attachment Focused Therapy

Inner Child Work and Attachment Focused Therapy are designed to help with those who were hurt or neglected as children, either by those around them or by external circumstances. Their roots lie in psycho-developmental theory. This approach is useful in repairing old wounds and learning to parent ourselves. It can also help to build and maintain healthy relationships in the here and now.

Neurodiversity Informed

I completed my training in 2019 at Maple Leaf Counselling and training Centre, Solihull, West Midlands. As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I comply with their ethical framework and ensure that my qualifications, training and insurance documents are up to date. I went on to work in domestic abuse for West Mercia Police and continued training in Neurodivergence and developmental conditions.
