Online Trauma Counselling in Halifax

No. The Rewind Technique is built so that a spoken account is not required, and I will not press for detail you have not offered. Some people finish this work having said almost nothing about the event. Most of what we discuss is its present-day effect on you.

It fits the pattern closely, and around here it is not unusual. An event that overwhelmed you leaves an alarm response that fires at the cues attached to it, which in this case means rain, forecasts and river levels. That response settles with the same approach as any other.

It is a paced, non-invasive process for settling the charge held in a memory while you stay relaxed and in control throughout. The memory itself remains; what fades is the intensity bolted onto it. It is often completed within a small number of sessions, though I would not promise a figure in advance.

I cannot give you a total, because the number of sessions is not fixed at the outset. The rates are £80 / 60 min, £100 / 90 min and £120 / 120 min, and the first 15-minute consultation is free. Rewind work often uses the 90-minute length so there is room to settle at both ends.

For the anxiety and low mood that travel with trauma, NHS Talking Therapies takes self-referrals via the national finder, as the town has no separately branded team. Healthy Minds Calderdale runs user-led support locally. If you feel unsafe rather than distressed, contact a GP or NHS 111.

It can be. We move at your pace and keep grounding techniques to hand, and being in your own space often helps you feel more in control. If additional in-person support were ever needed, I'd help you find suitable local options alongside our work.

We begin with a free 15-minute consultation, usually within a week, then a first video session at a careful pace. Working from Hove across Halifax means no waiting list and no slow trip into town when you're feeling vulnerable; the session simply comes to you.

You can; Calderdale Royal Hospital and NHS talking therapies are free, though often with a wait. My fees are £80 for 60 minutes, £100 for 90 and £120 for two hours. Longer sessions can suit trauma work, and privately you'd start sooner at your own pace.

For many people, yes. Being in your own space in Halifax, rather than an unfamiliar room after a long hill journey, can feel steadier. I work from Hove by secure video, and we can use 90-minute or evening sessions so there's time to settle and close gently.
