Tânia Gallindo MBACP, RCST BCST

I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor and bodyworker specialising in working with people suffering with known or unknown trauma issues such as developmental trauma (which is very common), complex trauma, trauma caused by physical abuse and other types of trauma. Trauma is detrimental to one’s life and some of the symptoms it causes are anxiety, self-hate, self-harm, ADHD, depression, low self-steem, and OCD to name a few dis-eases. I have worked as body therapist for over 20 years now and the experience of working physically and energetically greatly complements what I have to offer as a psychotherapeutic counsellor. Likewise my training and experience in psychotherapy informs the bodywork I offer. My work has a holistic and transpersonal touch to therapy, which sees problems or issues as an opportunity for self knowledge and growth. I have trained as a Psychosynthesis counsellor, which is an integrative, transpersonal and spiritual type of psychotherapy. It brings together different elements of specific therapies such as Dream work, Gestalt, Biodynamic and Attachment Therapies and Family System to name a few. I also offer a somatic approach to therapy via Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST), a gentle yet powerful vehicle to explore unconscious forces at play, inducing deep awareness and healing. I often get clients who have been referred to me by their psychotherapists as BCST and psychotherapy complement each other.
