trauma therapy in
BRISTOL
An Accredited Trauma Counsellor in Bristol. I specialise in supporting adults navigating trauma, relationship anxiety, people-pleasing, and the invisible wounds of complex family or relationship dynamics.
COUNSELLING WITH ARIANA IN BRISTOL
Sometimes it takes a while to recognise that what you’re carrying isn’t just stress or a difficult patch. It’s something older a way of moving through relationships and the world that formed a long time ago, and that no amount of self-awareness has quite managed to shift.
I work with adults across Bristol and the surrounding South West, including Bath, Somerset, Gloucestershire, Swindon, Wiltshire and Exeter. Sessions are fully online, so wherever you are in the region, geography isn’t a barrier.
My work sits at the intersection of trauma and relationships. Relationship anxiety, people pleasing, fear of abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency, and the childhood trauma or difficult life experiences that often underpin them. If relationships have always felt harder than they should, or if you’ve spent years trying to understand why you respond the way you do, this is the work.
Bristol has a strong culture of self-reflection and wellbeing, and yet finding the right therapist, someone who works specifically with trauma and relationships, can still take time. Online therapy widens that search considerably.
You don’t need to have it all worked out before reaching out. Many people don’t. Something has brought you here and that’s enough to begin.
Can I see a trauma therapist in Bristol online? Yes. All sessions are conducted online via a secure video platform, accessible from anywhere across Bristol.
How does online trauma therapy work? Sessions take place via a secure video platform at a regular weekly time. The work itself is no different from in-person, the therapeutic relationship, the pace, the depth, all of it translates.
