Trauma-Informed Counselling Services

At Carlie’s Healing Space, I offer gentle, person-centred therapy for adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, emotional distress, and low self-worth. Whether you're navigating a recent life event or processing long-term emotional pain, you're not alone.

My Approach to Therapy

My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed and person-centred approach. I work at your pace, creating a safe, non-judgmental space where your story is heard and respected.

Therapy is collaborative — we focus on what matters most to you. You’re the expert in your experience, and I’m here to support you with tools, insight, and compassion.

Session Format & Location

Initial Consultation
30 minutes (Free) 
 

Thinking about taking that first step towards feeling better can be a big decision. That's why I offer a free initial chat – it's really all about you getting a sense of whether working with me feels right.

During this time, you get to share what's on your mind, at your own pace. You can ask me anything about how I work and what therapy might look like for you specifically. It's a chance for you to experience my approach and see if you feel comfortable and understood.

There's no pressure at all – this is your opportunity to explore if I'm the right person to support you on your journey. It's about you feeling empowered to make the best choice for yourself.

I am creating a warm and inviting space that feels like home, where you can experience the profound benefits of face-to-face therapy. In-person sessions offer a unique opportunity to connect with your therapist on a deeper level, fostering trust and understanding that can lead to significant breakthroughs. 

My therapy room is designed to feel like a home away from home, a space where you can relax, be yourself, and embark on your journey to well-being. To make your experience even more comfortable, I'll provide creative supplies for expressive therapy, along with complimentary tea, coffee, and biscuits. I believe that a nurturing environment is essential for healing, and I am committed to providing just that.
