ABOUT ALINEA
Safety
Healing begins with a felt sense of safety — in your body, your choices, and the space we share.
Care
"Care without conditions"
Our work is relational, intuitive, and attuned. We offer care that’s consistent, compassionate, and non-performative — care that isn’t afraid to slow down, stay curious, or honour complexity. We meet people where they are, without expectation of where “should” be.
Integrity
“If it’s not honest, it’s not safe.”
We name what is alive in the room, uphold clear boundaries- and encourage you to find you to name your own. We're transparent about our approaches, our specialisms and the edges of our scope.
Integrity, for us, isn’t just professional ethics — it’s the way we honour ourselves and our clients as people.
Inclusivity
“Every part of you is welcome here.”
Inclusivity at Alinea means more than words on a page. It means designing our spaces with neurodivergence, trauma, identity, and lived experience in mind. We are continuously and actively reflecting on our place in the world, the impact we have on others, unlearning systems of oppression and finding ways to use our voices to lift each other higher.
"We become aware of ourselves through our body and our emotions.
We are aware of the world through the senses.
Emotions give our world all the meaning.
That is why we must accept them as they are."
Explore the depths of your journey with our approach to therapy. Rooted in Integrative Psychotherapy, we guide you in understanding both your present and past, focusing on your relationships and personal growth for the future. Drawing from Gestalt and Humanism, we stay grounded in the here and now, tailoring our sessions to honour your unique experiences.
Our flexible approach seamlessly integrates various therapeutic techniques, including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy. Beyond traditional methods, we explore holistic avenues such as nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, and somatic experiencing and movement practices to nurture your overall well-being.
Experience a warm, engaging, and direct approach in our sessions. Through creative practices like journaling, finding occupational balance, and embracing nature, we provide a safe space for you to explore, reflect, and evolve. Our mutual commitment to honesty, both with yourself and others, empowers you to process your experiences, shift your mindset, and pursue your goals.
