Trauma Support Providers

Professional Biography

Hi there, I'm Tracey, the owner of Arahura Counselling & Psychotherapy and I help people discover a healing pathway to inner peace and self acceptance. I am a Trauma-Informed Therapist & Accredited Mental Health Social Worker with 25 years experience in areas including childhood physical, sexual, and/or emotional abuse and neglect; complex mental health disorders; and violence, abuse, and/or trauma experienced as an adult. I am a genuine, caring, down to earth therapist comfortable with the difficult 'shadow parts' of inner experience as well as the 'silly humorous parts' of life. In therapy sessions time is given to building safety, trust, & connection and drawing attention to the strengths & resources you already have. We will work collaboratively at the pace you are comfortable with. We do this in a gentle, curious, compassionate manner utilising mindful, somatic, and attachment based approaches. I will endeavour to help you cultivate inner calm, balance, joy, & self-love.
