Transpersonal Counselling
Transpersonal Counselling takes a holistic approach, addressing the body, mind, and spirit. It explores past experiences, present challenges, and future growth, guiding individuals toward deeper self-awareness and wholeness. By uncovering patterns from childhood that may still influence life today, this approach fosters insight and transformation.
​
Through practices such as meditation, restorative yoga, mindfulness, creative expression, and inner child work, Transpersonal Counselling helps individuals reconnect with their true selves. It empowers them to integrate their experiences and become the author of their own lives.
What is Transpersonal Counselling?
Transpersonal Counselling evolved from transpersonal psychology in the 1960’s.
​
It has a strong evidence-base taken from the works of Carl Jung, Abraham Maslow and William James and incorporates modern day techniques.

Transpersonal Counselling is like an umbrella and these different approaches are spokes of my umbrella:
Praise:
Catherine said "When we choose to walk a different path, or swim against the tide, there are always unexpected challenges ahead.
For years, I attempted to speak up to help people, who like me, have been impacted by domestic and family violence – but the more I spoke, the more frightened of others’ reactions I became. Then I started counselling sessions with Jenny from Nurture and Nourish Holistic Therapies.
Jenny walks alongside me, helping me build courage. She guides me, with kindness and empathy, on how I can listen to the accumulated wisdom of my body, and merge the physical and intellectual, rather than artificially separating them.
I am increasingly recognising patterns in myself, the people around me and the environment. I am making more strategic decisions and my voice is getting stronger.
Above all, I am achieving all this while being kind to myself."
Wisdom o f your Body
Our bodies hold so much information and wisdom
We can all access this wisdom, however due to challenging circumstances such as trauma, illness or injury we can lose this connection.
In reconnecting to our inner world, we open ourselves up to a deeper connection to who we are, and our authentic self.
Inner Child
Our inner children can be the parts that hold our pain and hurt. To survive they put certain behaviours in place, that at the time, made sense for their safety.
As adults, exploring these behaviours with an open mind and loving heart can help us to see what impact they are having on our lives and if we would prefer to do something different.
The inner child is included in your journey of exploration to see if they are ready to let go of what they have been holding onto.
We can connect with our inner child through meditation, journalling, or creative expression.
Creative Expression
Sometimes we don’t have the language/words to express how we feel.
Allowing yourself to draw what you feel can help to understand what is going on in your life, creative expression allows you to have some ‘space’ to understand what you are experiencing.
You can gain insight/meaning/clarity into your situation.
Counselling
Counselling is often referred to as ‘talking therapy’ where you can talk about what is no longer working for you (patterns of behaviour) in a safe, non-judgemental, and confidential space.
You will have the opportunity to reflect on where you are in your life, and what you would like to be different.
We will work together on developing goals that you can work towards.
