What is Integrative Counselling?

How it may support you

Integrative counselling brings together a range of therapeutic approaches to support your individual needs. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, it considers your experiences, relationships, and patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaviour. This allows space to explore underlying factors that may be affecting your relationship with food, body image, or emotional wellbeing.

Sessions provide a supportive, confidential environment where you can make sense of your experiences, develop self-awareness, and work towards meaningful, lasting change at your own pace.

This might be for you if:

  • You feel stuck in patterns of thoughts, behaviours, or emotions you’d like to understand
  • You are experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, or low mood
  • You want space to explore your relationship with food, your body, or yourself more deeply
  • You would benefit from a flexible approach tailored to your individual needs
  • You are looking for support that considers both emotional and practical aspects of change

Integrative counselling, as are my other therapeutic approaches, is client- led, in that if something isn’t working for you, we can and will  change it, but  you should also expect to be gently challenged; change is not always comfortable for us as humans and our brains are programmed to look for safety (familiarity) and  can almost rebel against making changes, even when they will help us!  

You will learn about how our minds work and  how, with practice and support, you CAN make positive changes that will help you to break free of binge eating, purging, body hatred and preoccupation with weight, shape and size dominating every moment of your life. 

How many sessions will I need?

That depends on you to some extent, but as a guide, I generally work in blocks of six 55- minute sessions, usually weekly to start with. We check in at the end of week five so we can pause and plan. Sessions will reduce over time, so you still have the support you need as we navigate a safe and helpful path towards a new way forward for you.
