The freedom to share any negative emotional responses, thoughts and feelings;
Co-constructing a space within which you feel comfortable and able to share and experience difficult emotions;

A caring space within which we can explore difficult, traumatic and painful relationships, feelings or events;
Knowledge and expertise that can help regulate, mitigate, and alleviate emotional trauma responses within your body.
