About ClearWater Counselling
"Healing From The Inside Out"
Tina Lyall
Psychotherapist and Counsellor
Welcome
If you have found my website or biography, it is very likely you are in search of a therapist who you know can guide you through whatever struggle or challenge has propelled you to seek healing. I am here for you. Maybe you are struggling with feeling overwhelmed by current life circumstances, bogged down by anxiety, having a hard time feeling interested or motivated in life; or perhaps you’re ready to embark on a journey of deeper healing. Maybe you just feel something in your life is just ‘not right’ or is causing you some unhappiness lately.
Research shows that much of the change people experience during their time in therapy is because they felt heard and understood by their therapist – that their therapist “got them” and the guidance they gave was relevant and applicable. Because of this, it is critical that you find a therapist who you connect with, feel comfortable with, and whom you feel “gets you.”
Therefore, I encourage you to take a few minutes to read my bio. I am a heart centred clinician and embrace my clients with warmth, wisdom, compassion, and sincerity. My devotion to your care goes beyond the therapy room. I am fiercely committed to finding out how to best serve you. I work with adults, treating anxiety, trauma and depression, helping my clients to develop a deeper sense of self awareness, working towards more comprehensive and wholehearted healing.
In my practice we can access an extensive range of therapies. This includes body therapy techniques for the relief of stress and anxiety, healing from trauma and depression. Over the past 22 years I have facilitated self development and coaching workshops, specialising in workplace stress management as well as trauma and anger release work for the development of emotional intelligence.
In my personal journey, I have overcome many personal hurdles after being severely injured in a motor car accident. Following my accident, and the challenges of years of recovery, I became passionately interested in healing trauma, self-development, personal growth, and spiritual healing.
For many years, my practice has also specialised in the resolution of emotional, sexual, physical, and childhood trauma. I was determined to become a leader in my field and have been the Director of Clearwater Consultancy for 28 years. I am available for appointments both face to face at my consulting rooms or virtual sessions.
My Approach
My clients say that my presence is ‘calming and grounding’ from the first moment we meet. I’ve found that clients who may be reluctant or nervous about therapy at first, said they felt surprisingly very comfortable and open with me in the therapeutic space. In our time together… there is space for all that you are holding, feeling, and experiencing. There’s space for sadness, pain, tears, and worries, and, for laughter, joy, celebrating successes and whatever other emotions come up in the process!
My clinical approach blends traditional therapies with creative and body-based therapies. My goal for our therapy together is not only for it to be an effective treatment, but also an enjoyable process for you to engage in.
Is this You?
- Do you find yourself staying awake at night, replaying scenarios from the day
- Is your self-doubt getting in the way of you being present as a parent, a partner, a friend, or co-worker?
- Do you have a strong ‘inner critic’ that won’t stop feeding you negative beliefs?
- Are you feeling confused about where you are heading in life?
- Are you having a hard time setting healthy boundaries, and find yourself ‘people pleasing’?
- Do you find yourself stuck in a whirlwind of anxiety, sadness, or overthinking, and by the end of the day, you’re downright exhausted?
Whatever has brought you here, I want you to know you are not alone. I would be honoured to sit with you and explore what it would be like for us to work together, to map out a plan that moves you toward achieving your goals, helping you to live a happier, more meaningful, and deeply fulfilling life.
