Danielle Kerris
As a psychotherapeutic counsellor and Somatic Experiencing® advanced trainee, I am client led and trauma-informed in my approach. I work from a place of wholeness, always assuming that, as long as you are breathing, there is more right with you than wrong with you. I work consciously with clients from a variety of background and life experiences. I am committed to uncovering the ways in which culturally embedded power dynamics show up within me. I am gender, sexuality and relationship diversity affirmative.
Where a client wishes I integrate techniques from Somatic Experiencing® into the sessions. See my Somatic Experiencing® page for more information.
For me, the relationship is key, and an initial session would be a chance for us to feel whether I’m the right person for you. I love the Anne Lamott quote: ‘My mind is a bad neighbourhood that I try not to go into alone’. I don’t have all the answers, but I can be by your side as you visit some difficult places. And who knows, maybe some unexpected and joyful places too.
I work face to face and online and offer both open ended and short term therapy.
Supervision: In 2025 I completed Headtrong’s Anti-Oppressive Supervision training. I am currently offering low cost supervision while I gain the hours needed to graduate. I welcome enquiries from individuals as well as organisations seeking group therapy.
