A Trauma-Informed and Integrative Approach

Kay works trauma-informed and integratively, meaning therapy prioritises emotional safety, choice and collaboration. This approach recognises that present-day difficulties are often connected to past experiences, attachment patterns and the nervous system.Therapy is not about forcing change, but about developing understanding, resilience and self-compassion at a pace that feels manageable and supportive.
