The HeadSync Approach
The HeadSync Approach
A whole-person approach: mind, body, emotions (and always at your pace).
If you’re feeling anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or like your body is holding stress, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
At HeadSync, we offer integrative therapy, which means sessions are tailored to you. Some people want a safe space to talk and make sense of their feelings. Others want practical tools. Some want to explore deeper patterns rooted in earlier experiences. Many people want a mix.
We’ll move at your pace, and we shape the work around what helps you most, always with care, consent, and collaboration.
Who we support:
We support adults and young people (12+) who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or out of sync: in their thoughts, emotions, relationships, or body.
Common reasons people come to therapy include:
- Anxiety, panic, stress, burnout, and overthinking
- Low mood, numbness, motivation, and self-esteem
- Grief, life transitions, and feeling lost
- Relationship patterns, boundaries, and people-pleasing
- Past experiences affecting the present
- Struggling with addictions or obsessions
If you’re not sure what it is, that’s okay. We can begin with where you are.
Our shared way of working
Even though each therapist brings their own training and style, everyone at HeadSync works within the same foundations:
- Warm, non-judgemental, and person-centred
- Trauma-informed and body-aware (where appropriate)
- Collaborative and consent-led
- At your pace, never pushed
- Clear boundaries, safeguarding, and ethical practice
- Supervision-supported practice (including trainees)
A whole-person approach (mind + body + emotions).
We work in a way that considers the whole of you: your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and your body’s responses to stress.
Sometimes what we feel shows up in the body first: tension, restlessness, shutdown, fatigue, or a constant sense of being “on edge”. When it feels right, we can include gentle somatic awareness (body-based grounding) to help you feel safer, steadier, and more connected in the present.
This isn’t about pushing you into anything. It’s about listening closely to what your nervous system needs.
What does “integrative” mean?
You don’t need to know what type of therapy you need. We draw from different approaches depending on you, such as:
- Person-centred therapy (warm, non-judgemental support)
- CBT and solution-focused tools (working with thoughts, feelings and behaviours)
- Psychodynamic / inner-child & parts work (understanding patterns, attachment, and earlier experiences)
- Creative arts therapy (art, dance, music)
- Somatic therapy (yoga, breathwork and mindful movement)
We’ll choose what fits, and we can change course at any time.
Creativity and expression (always optional)
Sometimes talking is the right route. And sometimes it isn’t.
If you’re open to it, we can bring in creative, expressive ways of working, especially when feelings are hard to name. This might include gentle prompts, visualisation, music, movement, drawing, or writing.
You don’t need to be an expert at anything. It’s simply another way to explore what’s going on inside, with kindness and curiosity.
Ways we might work together:
Talking it Through
A steady, supportive space to explore what you’re feeling, what you need, and what’s been hard to hold alone. A place where you can feel safe to express yourself authentically, without feeling judged.
Body-based grounding
Simple check-ins, breath, and body awareness to help regulate stress responses and feel more present.
Creative expression
Optional tools like drawing, painting, journaling, imagery, or music to express what words can’t always reach.
Movement
Gentle, guided movement (when appropriate) to support emotional release, ease tension, grounding, and reconnection with your body.
Inner-child & Part work (IFS Informed)
Compassionate exploration of unmet needs, protective patterns, and how early experiences may still affect you today.
A note from Charlotte (Founder of HeadSync)
HeadSync’s approach is rooted in integrative therapy, creativity, and somatic (body-based) awareness, because healing isn’t just about insight, it’s about safety in the nervous system too. As HeadSync grows, I select therapists and trainees who genuinely align with this ethos, while still bringing their own strengths and specialisms.
