Holistic Counselling

Tammie is a fully qualified experienced counsellor of 17 years specialising in holistic counselling. This approach acknowledges the interconnection of body, mind and spirit in the healing process, and utilises the wisdom, tradition and philosophies of western and eastern cultures.

Although it is a psycho-spiritual mode of healing, holistic counselling is not connected to any religion, but can help people who are looking for an alternative to the medical model in reducing the stressors of everyday life and/or navigating through difficult situations.

Tammie offers a caring, confidential service in the beautiful surrounds of the River House for you to share your story and experiences, and will work with you to help you heal your emotional distress and access the unconscious guidance that lies within your experiences.

The aim is to help you rediscover your authentic self and attract greater serenity and joy to your life while equipping you with the tools and knowledge to continue your journey of growth and discovery long after your sessions have come to an end.
