Psychological Therapy in Scotland & London

You are not just a catalogue of adversities that you are faced with in life. You are not just the ‘damage’ that you have been told you suffered from. You are not even the pathology or the series of labels and diagnoses that have been given to you. You are a creature of immeasurable strength with the innate ability to grow and trust again and keep trusting and even learn to trust for the first time. You are hard-wired and geared to connect with others and through that connection to protect your mental health and recovery. You are a Growing Truster.

Dr Zoë Chouliara

You are not just a victim of what happened to you; You can do even better than just surviving; You are a ‘Growing Truster’- you can recover by learning to trust yourself, your potential and others

Dr Zoë Chouliara
To triumph as a species over adversity in an increasingly traumatogenic world, we have to CONNECT, Manage physical threat (infection & inflammation) and Protect the Immune System. To do the last two, we have to Connect. To connect, we have to look after our health, wellbeing, and personal growth
Dr Zoë Chouliara

Recovering can only happen within a Trusting Relationship. Good Psychological Therapy can provide this.

Dr Zoë Chouliara

Adversity and Trauma are identity challenges. Adversity challenges the way you see yourself and your psychological resources…People CAN and Do Move on from adversity.

Dr Zoë Chouliara
