Caroline King

I am a qualified trauma Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Nervous System Regulation Specialist.

I’ve been working in private practice for the past nine years, specialising in trauma recovery for women using body-centred modalities such as Polyvagal therapy, somatic awareness and sensorimotor techniques to restore safety, emotional regulation, and connection.

My path into Counselling and Psychotherapy began long before I formally trained; it was shaped by thirty five years of working in health and wellbeing – educating, training, presenting and supporting people to understand and recover from the effects of stress and trauma. Those years profoundly shaped how I understand human patterns and how the body holds our experiences. My professional background and continued interest in neurobiology has always led me to support both the physiological and psychological elements of therapy.

In my 1 hour class I provide neuroeducation and expert-led trauma sensitive sequencing. You’ll also experience interoception and co-regulation. I guide you step-by-step through appropriate Polyvagal regulation practices that are neuroscientific, state specific and sensory specific to ease your nervous system out of survival mode and into a state of calm and safety.

Classes are intentionally limited to small groups, so booking in advance is recommended. Healing from trauma isn’t a quick fix - there’s no “one and done.” The aim of this class is to provide an opportunity for you to have an experience of how your nervous system is capable of resetting.
