Limited Opportunity: Reduced Rate Trauma Therapy (£40/session)

I am offering a limited number of spaces (4 total) for clients to undergo IARTT Rewind Therapy for the management of trauma-related symptoms.

This program is specifically for:
✅ Survivors of life-threatening events.
✅ Those who witnessed a traumatic incident.
✅ People struggling with intrusive images after hearing about a traumatic event.

Why Rewind Therapy?
It is known as the "closure without disclosure" therapy. It aims to stop flashbacks and intrusive thoughts without requiring you to talk through the trauma in detail.

Structure & Cost:

Cost: £40 per session (Reduced from the usual rate).

Format: A short series of initial sessions + a 3-month follow-up.

Goal: To reduce the ongoing emotional and mental impact of the event.

To apply for one of these 4 spaces or to ask any questions, please contact me via DM or at counsellinghypnowithalison@gmail.com

Seeking 4 Individuals for Specialised Trauma Support (Reduced Rate)

Have you experienced a life-threatening event, or perhaps witnessed something deeply distressing?

Sometimes, even just hearing the vivid details of a traumatic event can leave us with intrusive images, "mental loops," or a heavy emotional burden that feels hard to shake. This is often called vicarious trauma, and it can impact your sleep, your mood, and your sense of safety.

I am looking for 4 clients to take part in a specialized IARTT Rewind Therapy program at a significantly reduced rate of £40 per session.

What is Rewind Therapy?
It is a powerful, non-invasive technique designed to "file away" traumatic memories so they no longer cause distress. Unlike some therapies, you do not have to retell the details of the event out loud. The Commitment:

A few initial sessions to process the event.

One follow-up session at the 3-month mark to ensure lasting results.

Who is this for?

Survivors of life-threatening situations.

Witnesses/Observers of traumatic events.

Those impacted by hearing graphic details of a trauma (Secondary Trauma).

If you are ready to manage the impact these images have on your life, please send me a private message or email counsellinghypnowithalison@gmail.com to discuss if this is the right fit for you.

Stress Awareness Month ( )

April is Stress Awareness Month, and the theme for 2026 is . We often wait for a "calmer time" to look after our mental health, but the truth is, change starts with the small habits we build today.

Challenge: Can you dedicate 5 minutes today to just breathe? No phone, no tasks—just you.
If stress has moved from "busy" to "overwhelming," my door is always open for a chat.

World Bipolar Day

Reducing stigma and honouring the "lived experience."

Today is World Bipolar Day, observed on Vincent van Gogh’s birthday. We use this day to shift the conversation from "stigma" to "support." Living with Bipolar is a journey of incredible strength and management. Therapy provides the toolkit to help find balance amidst the highs and lows. 🎨🧠

Let’s spread awareness. Share this post to help normalize the conversation around complex mental health.

Do you feel like you’re constantly "on," even when you’re trying to rest? 🌿

Whether it’s the weight of burnout, the shadows of old trauma, or the heavy fog of grief, living in survival mode is exhausting.

I’m Alison, and I help adults in Paisley and across the UK move from "just getting through the day" to a place of genuine resilience. My approach combines traditional talking therapy with somatic tools to help calm your nervous system.

✨ March Relaunch Special: I am offering an introductory rate of £50 for new online clients this month.

International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination

Mental health does not exist in a vacuum.

Experiences of racism, exclusion and discrimination impact nervous systems, self-worth and safety.

Therapy should be a space where all identities are respected and affirmed.

Psychological safety matters.
Representation matters.
Listening matters.

We all have a role in creating safer communities.

International Day of Happiness

Authenticity over "toxic positivity."

Happy International Day of Happiness! ☀️ In therapy, we know that true happiness isn't the absence of sadness—it’s the ability to navigate all our emotions with resilience. Today, I’m celebrating "Contentment"—the quiet joy of being exactly who you are.

What is one small thing that brought a smile to your face today?
