Counselling Services
Greetings. My name is Hamish Kempthorne and I'm here to support you in making peace with anxiety and overwhelming emotion. My modality is a somatic therapy (like Hakomi or Somatic Experiencing), based on awareness of emotions in the body. It's a great alternative to talk therapy, especially in addressing historical trauma.
We can spend our lives avoiding, resisting, and guarding against unpleasant feelings and situations. My invitation is for you to find a safe, supported space, where you can learn to be present with your emotions, without feeling overwhelmed. You will learn to pivot from distress to calm, without ignoring difficult feelings - to relax and move THROUGH difficult emotions - and you will take the lead in your own healing.
I understand how it can be uncomfortable to ask for help. That's why I offer a free phone call and a discounted first session - so you can meet me, and see if I'm the right person for you to work with. Your first 2-hour session is just $60. Call me.
