Mrs Tamara Bell Counsellor

At a foundation level, I work from a humanistic, person-centred, and relational framework. For me this means presenting authentically, empathetically and fostering the relationship for the therapeutic process. I also come with the belief you are the expert of your world and take into consideration the many multi-facets of being. I am curious of both your past and current life experiences. I am an integrative therapist that draws on a diverse range of modalities and approaches depending on the individual person. I describe my therapeutic style as collaborative, curious and genuine, whilst utilising trauma-informed principles, and a strength-based approach. I have worked with complex and diverse populations, and I am often in awe of the courage and willingness to be vulnerable. In conjunction with my professional experience, my own personal life journey of healing has only enriched my practice as a therapist. I engage in counselling and supervision as I believe learning and evolving is a life-long process. Alongside being a therapist, I live a minimalistic lifestyle, I am introverted, find sanctuary in nature, love tiny homes/living and spending quality time with my two dogs and husband. The counselling space provides an opportunity to unpack your unique lived experiences, hold space to process, respectfully be empowered and find your sense of self.
