SOMETIMES THE PAST FEELS CLOSER THAN WE WANT IT TO BE — showing up in our thoughts, our behaviours, or our relationships.

Healing from trauma isn’t about erasing the past. It’s about finding a safe way to process what’s happened while learning how to build something new — calm, confidence, purpose.

In my work with adults and young adults, I blend trauma therapy with a solution-focused approach. Together, we deal with what you’ve been through to allow you to focus on what’s possible in your future.

The good news is that you don’t have to choose between healing and moving forward — therapy can be both. 🌱

I offer a free personalised phone call to help you identify what you want help with. Reach out via my website or DM me.

Check out this feedback from clients who've had Rewind Trauma Therapy:

'It's unbelievable. My whole thought process has changed around the memory."

"It's a huge relief."

"I'm no longer scared of the event."

"I started to see the good things in my past rather than just the bad things."

"My trauma no longer defines me."

Trauma is what happens inside us after an event or multiple events. It can affect everything negatively - your life and your relationships.

How does hypnotherapy work? Here we take a closer look at what hypnotherapy can help with and what to expect in a session

Autumn is settling in, and the heated couch is back on in my clinics 🔥

When you come for hypnotherapy, you get to lie down on the heated couch for the hypnosis part of our session.

What is hypnosis?

Hypnosis is something you do already many times during the day. It is a focused state of mind that we go into, often when we're driving, daydreaming or walking. During this time, we get access to our unconscious mind and it is this part of our brain that helps us to make change and find solutions. That will explain why often when we're walking we have a light bulb moment where we know what to do about something 💡

What do I do during hypnosis?

You get to lie on the couch and just relax, whilst I talk to you using language to help you relax and work on the things you want to change, such as getting rid of old thoughts patterns or fears, building confidence, or being kinder to yourself. You are ALWAYS in complete control during hypnosis.

If you like the sound of hypnotherapy, then do get in touch for a chat.

Self-medicating to relieve stress or anxiety is not unusual, but the truth is that self-medication is not dealing with the underlying issue and can lead to long-term mental and physical health issues.

We may reassure ourselves we use substances to help with certain things like a difficult day at work or a social situation, but by doing so we ignore the red flags.

Here's some red flags:
🚩 Alcohol is a mood depressant. The first drink may soothe and give you a buzz through the increase of the motivational chemical, dopamine, in our brains, but the dopamine surge quickly fades away leaving us feeling lower in mood.
🚩 To***co increases our levels of the stress hormone, cortisol, causing us to feel agitated rather than relaxed.
🚩 Sleep is affected by alcohol, ni****ne, and other drugs. Disrupted sleep is linked to low mood.
🚩 Weight increase is often associated with alcohol intake.
🚩 Certain drugs can induce psychosis or mood disturbance.

If you know what it feels like to self-medicate, you may be interested in my blog on 'How to Stop Self-Medicating' - https://www.tamsindenbightherapy.com/post/how-to-stop-self-medicating

If you'd like to stop self-medicating, I'm here to support you via 1:1 sessions or online sessions.

The River Usk, Brecon

08/08/2025

Here’s me having a super chilled river swim in Brecon this week. I spotted lots of birds and electric blue dragonflies as I swam.

Going on short breaks doesn’t have to cost a lot. Often a day out in nature can hugely change your perspective on things and help you feel re-energised.

What’s your plans to be out in nature this weekend?

🌱 Therapy & Gardening

This year, after three years of trying, I finally grew onions that worked! At the same time, I lost a much-loved apple tree to rot.

It got me thinking that growth and loss live side by side. Sometimes, the things we nurture patiently come good, even if it take time a long time to get there. And sometimes, even the strongest parts of our lives — things we’ve relied on for years — can be taken away, suddenly and without warning.

In therapy, I often talk to my clients how how we can't control what happens externally, but we can choose where we focus our energy. We can learn what works, even if it takes time to figure it out. And we adapt, and keep focusing on the life we want to build, our best hopes.

If you're in a period of change or uncertainty, Solution Focused Therapy offers a space to explore what’s already working — and how to nurture more of it.
