Counselling with Lucianne

I have extensive experience with victims of sexual trauma, victims of incest and victims of interpersonal and relational trauma such as enmeshment/emotional abuse. I help clients find personal autonomy and empowerment to take control of their lives following abuse. I've also worked closely with individuals and couples wanting to develop a healthy sexuality following porn addiction, Sex Addiction a

nd infidelity. I understand the problems I cover are very sensitive which is why compassion-focussed therapy is at the centre of everything I do, helping the client build a healthy and compassionate view of themselves throughout therapy. I am an integrative counsellor, using whatever therapies I feel will help a client to overcome their problems. I am greatly informed by Compassion Focussed therapy, looking very much at the relationship the client has with compassion and with themselves. I also use psychoeducation to help clients understand their diagnoses' and difficulties. I understand that coming for therapy is a daunting and often scary experience. I offer a very personal (free) initial consultation, where we will spend time getting to know each other and creating a safe space where we can begin to build the therapeutic relationship. I like work with my clients on a level where the client can feel empowered and in charge.
