Counselling and Psychotherapy
Our experienced therapists provide a confidential and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences to gain insight and promote personal growth.
Reflexology
Through gentle pressure on specific points of your feet or hands, reflexology aims to restore balance and stimulate your body's natural healing process, promoting relaxation and overall well-being.
Brainspotting
This cutting-edge therapy focuses on identifying and processing unresolved trauma and distress held in the brain and body, facilitating deep healing and personal transformation.
Reiki Healing
Drawing upon ancient Japanese techniques, Reiki Healing uses gentle touch or energy transfer to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance the body's natural ability to heal itself.
Aromatherapy
Harnessing the power of essential oils, aromatherapy combines therapeutic scents with massage or inhalation techniques to promote relaxation, relieve stress, and enhance physical and emotional well-being.
Writing Therapy
Through guided writing exercises and self-reflection, writing therapy provides a creative outlet for exploring emotions, processing experiences, and gaining personal insights, fostering healing and self-discovery.
Why Dragonfly?
The dragonfly holds powerful symbolic significance, representing change, adaptability, transformation, and self-realisation. Like the dragonfly's metamorphosis from water to air, it teaches us to embrace change gracefully. With its ability to swiftly change direction, it reminds us to adapt to life's challenges. The dragonfly sheds its old form, revealing its true beauty, inspiring us to transform and evolve. As it soars through the air, it symbolises the freedom and clarity of self-realisation.
At Dragonfly Holistic Wellbeing, we draw upon the dragonfly's symbolism to guide and inspire our clients. Together, we navigate the currents of transformation, uncover inner strength, and embark on a profound journey towards self-realisation and holistic wellbeing.
‘Transformation is not a future event, it is a present activity.’
What is Counselling?
Counselling is a collaborative process that provides you with a safe and confidential space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. It aims to help you understand yourself better, gain insights into your challenges, and develop strategies to cope with life's difficulties. A counsellor facilitates this process by actively listening, showing empathy and compassion, while offering guidance and support. Counselling focuses on present issues, personal growth, and self-discovery. It is often short-term and solution-focused, aiming to provide practical tools and techniques to manage specific concerns effectively.
What is Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy, on the other hand, is a therapeutic approach that delves deeper into understanding the root causes of emotional and psychological issues. It explores how past experiences, beliefs, and patterns of behaviour impact on your current state of being. Psychotherapy is a longer-term process that aims to promote lasting change and personal transformation. A psychotherapist works collaboratively with you to explore your unconscious mind, enhance self-awareness, and gain a deeper understanding of your emotions and behaviours. It incorporates various therapeutic modalities to facilitate healing and growth, aiming for a holistic transformation.
How Holistic Therapy Can Help You?
Embracing Interconnectedness and the Healing Power of Nature
Holistic therapy is a transformative approach that recognises the interconnectedness of our mind, body, and spirit. Just as the natural landscape thrives on the delicate balance of its ecology, holistic therapy addresses all the elements of an individual’s life, working with the power of the inner and outer environments.
At Dragonfly Holistic Wellbeing, we believe in utilising the beauty and serenity of the natural world as an integral part of the therapeutic process. The landscape becomes a nurturing backdrop for self-exploration and growth, providing a sense of calm and connection that is often elusive in our modern lives. Whether it's walking through a tranquil forest, sitting by a flowing river, or simply being present in the soothing embrace of nature, we make use of the natural environment to enhance the therapeutic experience.
We understand that every individual is unique, with their own specific needs and preferences. That's why we offer a range of services for our clients to choose from, allowing them to reach out for the specific support they require. Whether it's counselling, mindfulness practices, expressive arts, bodywork, or a combination of various modalities, our goal is to provide a truly personalised holistic service that meets you where you are on your healing journey.
It's important to note that our approach to holistic therapy is not about "fixing" you. Instead, we see ourselves as informed companions, walking alongside you as you navigate the path towards healing and self-discovery. We honour and respect your innate capacity to heal and grow, offering guidance, support, and a safe space for exploration. Together, we create a therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, and collaboration.
