Counselling with Clem
My counselling approach integrates diverse psychotherapy modalities with social and cultural frameworks, creating an ethical, collaborative, and trauma-informed practice. I combine talk therapy with somatic techniques, fostering self-awareness, resilience, and personal transformation.
I draw on Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Attachment Theory to help clients reclaim inner resources and navigate life’s challenges.
Somatic/Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP): A holistic mind-body approach that strengthens the connection between thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations—especially effective for trauma, anxiety, depression, and grief.
Internal Family Systems (IFS): Supports clients in exploring and harmonizing different parts of themselves, cultivating self-compassion and emotional balance.
Attachment Theory: Examines relational patterns, helping clients develop healthier connections with themselves and others.
For those who prefer a structured, dialogue-based approach, I also incorporate Narrative Therapy (NT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Existential Therapy, which help clients reframe unhelpful thought patterns, understand personal narratives, and find meaning in their experiences.
Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy: Preparation, Integration, & Consultation
Psychedelic experiences, whether through clinical treatment or personal exploration, can be profound and transformative. However, proper preparation and integration are essential for making meaning of these experiences and applying insights to daily life.
I offer:
Preparation Sessions: Setting intentions, exploring expectations, and developing grounding techniques before a psychedelic journey.
Integration Therapy: Supporting clients in processing, understanding, and incorporating insights from psychedelic experiences into their healing journey.
Consultation for Professionals: Guidance on harm reduction, ethical considerations, and best practices in psychedelic-assisted therapy.
While I do not provide or facilitate psychedelic substances, I offer a safe, trauma-informed space to explore these experiences within an ethical and therapeutic framework. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each individual, ensuring that therapy is a safe, empowering, and transformative process.
