Trauma-Informed Psychosocial Support & Counselling
At Astramía Counselling, I offer trauma-informed psychosocial counselling for individuals who are navigating emotional distress, life transitions, and the long-term impact of stress or relational experiences.
1. Individual Psychosocial Counselling
One-to-one sessions focused on emotional understanding, regulation, and personal resilience.
These sessions may support clients who are experiencing:
-
Emotional overwhelm or chronic stress
-
Adjustment difficulties related to migration or relocation
-
Cross-cultural relationship challenges
-
Low self-esteem, confusion, or loss of direction
-
Lingering emotional impact of past experiences
Sessions are collaborative and client-centred, providing space to explore thoughts, emotions, and patterns at a pace that feels safe and respectful.
2. Expat & Migrant Emotional Support
Support specifically tailored to the emotional realities of living between cultures.
This service may be helpful for individuals navigating:
-
Culture shock and identity shifts
-
Loneliness, isolation, or lack of local support
-
Relationship strain linked to migration stress
-
Parenting challenges in a cross-cultural context
-
Emotional fatigue from adapting to a new system or environment
The focus is on emotional grounding, clarity, and resilience, not on clinical treatment.
3.Trauma-Informed Support After Emotional or Psychological Abuse
Non-clinical psychosocial support for individuals recovering from emotionally harmful or controlling relationships.
This work may include:
-
Understanding trauma responses and emotional triggers
-
Rebuilding self-trust and personal boundaries
-
Emotional stabilisation and grounding techniques
-
Processing relational patterns in a safe, contained way
This service does not replace specialised trauma therapy or crisis care. If intensive or clinical support is needed, referrals are encouraged and supported.
4. Support for Mothers & Caregivers
Emotional support for mothers and caregivers who are carrying a significant mental and emotional load.
Sessions may focus on:
-
Emotional exhaustion or burnout
-
Balancing caregiving with personal identity
-
Stress related to family transitions
-
Strengthening emotional regulation and self-compassion
The aim is to provide a supportive space where caregivers can reconnect with themselves and their own emotional needs.
5. Emotional Support During Legal or High-Conflict Situations
Psychosocial support for individuals navigating emotionally demanding processes such as:
-
Separation or divorce
-
Custody-related stress
-
High-conflict interpersonal situations
Sessions focus on emotional regulation, grounding, and clarity, not legal advice or psychological assessment. Clients are encouraged to seek appropriate legal or clinical support alongside this work when needed.
