Malise Hartley
Transpersonal Integrative Psychotherapist
I am an extensively trained, BACP accredited Integrative Psychotherapist, drawing from a range of approaches to suit your needs. These include existential, humanistic and psychodynamic ideas, as well as some Eastern philosophy and practices. If you would additionally like an introduction to meditation techniques, then this can also be incorporated into the work.
Sometimes we might also work with your dreams and guided visualisations if you feel comfortable doing this. I also specialise in working with body symptoms and sensations, using them as a guide to uncover any deeper issues that may need to be resolved.
Overall, my aim is to help you master any difficult feelings and to encourage the best parts of you to flourish and bloom. While I deal with most issues that anyone can face in life, I have particular experience in the following areas:
TRAUMA (PTSD or Depersonalisation/derealisation)
SELF-REGULATION (ADHD, anger issues, eating disorders)
ANXIETY (Insomnia, generalised anxiety, social phobia)
EXISTENTIAL DILEMMAS (Loneliness, purpose, difficult life choices, suicidal thoughts)
CREATIVE (Overcoming performance anxiety, writer’s block, or fear of failure)
