Van Weelden Therapy
Integrative Somatic Therapy and Clinical Counselling
Do you sense that something within you is ready to shift?
If you have felt stuck in anxiety, depression, painful dynamics in your relationship with yourself and others, or if you battle with addiction and compulsive behaviours, know that you are not alone and there is a way through.
My integrative, somatic and compassionate approach provides a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore the different parts of yourself, gently process past pain and trauma, and move toward greater balance and well-being.
How I Can Support You:
Somatic & Brainspotting Therapy
Are you struggling with deep-rooted issues such as trauma, addiction, grief, or unhelpful patterns that talk therapy hasn’t been able to resolve? Many people intellectually understand their challenges but find that their emotions and reactions remain unchanged in triggering situations. If this resonates with you, Brainspotting and Somatic Experiencing may offer the deeper shift you’re seeking. A somatic approach is central to how I support people and, in my experience, can facilitate the most meaningful change as it can offer deeper self-connection and a greater sense of safety and calm in your body.
Individual Counselling
At times, life can feel overwhelming, or we may face challenges that are difficult to navigate alone. Person-centered clinical counselling provides a supportive space to ease immediate stress, uncover underlying issues, and harness your strengths to create meaningful change. I tailor my approach to you as an individual, integrating different therapy modalities to enhance your well-being and growth.

Substances & Coping Behaviours
“Don’t ask why the addiction, ask why the pain.” – Dr. Gabor Maté
Have you been struggling with a substance or behaviour that once helped you cope but is now impacting your quality of life? My approach is empathetic and integrative, combining different therapy modalities to explore the underlying dynamics of your relationship with yourself and your coping mechanisms. Through trauma processing and deeper self-understanding, we can support your recovery and help you cultivate a life that feels more free.
