Compassionate Inquiry is a gentle yet powerful therapeutic approach designed to help you uncover and understand the deep-seated beliefs, patterns, and emotional wounds that shape your thoughts, behaviours, and overall well-being. Developed by Dr. Gabor Maté, this method creates a safe and supportive space for you to explore your inner world with curiosity, self-awareness, and self-compassion.

Through mindful questioning, deep listening, and somatic awareness, a Compassionate Inquiry therapist helps you identify the unconscious stories and protective mechanisms that may be keeping you stuck in stress, anxiety, self-doubt, or past trauma. By bringing these patterns to light with gentleness and compassion, you can begin to release emotional burdens and move towards healing, empowerment, and inner freedom.

This transformational therapy can help you:

✔  Recognise and shift limiting beliefs and emotional patterns
✔  Heal unresolved childhood wounds and past traumas
✔ Develop self-compassion and emotional resilience
✔ Reduce stress, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm
✔ Strengthen self-awareness and personal growth
✔ Improve relationships by understanding emotional triggers

Compassionate Inquiry is ideal for:

• Anyone feeling stuck in recurring emotional patterns or self-doubt
• Those struggling with anxiety, stress, or unresolved trauma
• Individuals looking for deep self-exploration and healing
• Anyone seeking a gentle, trauma-informed approach to inner work
• Those wanting to cultivate greater self-acceptance, clarity, and personal growth

During your Compassionate Inquiry session in London, you can expect:

• A safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your emotions freely
• Thoughtful and mindful questioning to uncover unconscious patterns
• Guided self-reflection to connect with your authentic self
• Gentle somatic awareness practices to tune into your body’s wisdom
• A session tailored to your pace, needs, and emotional comfort

Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes, allowing time for deep exploration and integration. Whether in-person or online, your therapist will guide you through the process with compassion, respect, and care.

While Compassionate Inquiry is a gentle and supportive therapy, it may not be suitable if:

• You are in acute emotional distress or crisis and need immediate mental health support
• You are not ready to explore deep-rooted emotions or past trauma
• You prefer a more structured, solution-focused approach rather than deep inquiry

If you’re unsure whether Compassionate Inquiry therapy is right for you, feel free to get in touch—we’re here to help and support you on your journey to self-discovery and healing.

While Transformational Embodiment is a gentle and adaptive practice, there are some situations where caution is advised:

• If you have acute physical injuries that limit movement (consult your therapist for modifications)

• If you have severe trauma history and are not yet working with a trauma-informed professional

• If you experience significant dissociation or difficulty staying present in your body

• If you have a medical condition that may be affected by breathwork or movement therapy

At Integrity Centre in Liverpool Street, our skilled practitioners provide a safe and supportive space for transformational healing. Whether you’re looking to deepen self-awareness, release emotional blocks, or reconnect with your body, Transformational Embodiment Therapy can help you step into a more empowered and aligned version of yourself.

Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapy is a body-centered therapeutic approach designed to help you process and release trauma by working with the nervous system, bodily sensations, and subconscious patterns. Unlike traditional talk therapy, which primarily focuses on the mind, somatic therapy acknowledges that trauma is stored in the body and must be released through a combination of awareness, movement, breathwork, and gentle therapeutic techniques.

By working with the body’s innate wisdom and self-healing ability, Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapy helps you regulate your nervous system, reduce stress responses, and reconnect with a sense of safety and balance. This approach integrates polyvagal theory, mindfulness, breathwork, and guided movement to help shift trauma patterns and restore emotional resilience.

This gentle yet transformative therapy can help with:

• Releasing stored trauma and emotional tension from the body
• Calming the nervous system and reducing chronic stress and anxiety
• Easing symptoms of PTSD, hypervigilance, and emotional overwhelm
• Reconnecting with the body after experiences of dissociation or numbness
• Breaking free from deep-seated patterns of fear, avoidance, or self-sabotage
• Improving emotional regulation, self-awareness, and self-compassion
• Building resilience and a greater sense of safety in daily life

This therapy is particularly beneficial for individuals who:

• Have experienced childhood trauma, PTSD, or complex trauma (C-PTSD)
• Struggle with chronic anxiety, panic attacks, or emotional dysregulation
• Feel disconnected from their body or experience persistent physical tension
• Have unresolved trauma from past experiences, including emotional, physical, or sexual abuse
• Experience stress-related physical symptoms, such as digestive issues, migraines, or chronic pain
• Want to cultivate greater self-awareness, emotional balance, and a deeper connection to themselves

Each session is gentle, client-centered, and led at your own pace, ensuring you feel safe and supported throughout the process. Here’s what you can expect:

• Grounding & safety – We begin with gentle techniques to help you feel grounded, present, and safe in your body.
• Exploring somatic awareness – You’ll be guided to notice bodily sensations, emotions, and tension patterns linked to past experiences.
• Regulating the nervous system – Using techniques like breathwork, gentle movement, and mindfulness, we support your nervous system in shifting out of survival states (fight, flight, freeze).
• Processing & releasing stored trauma – Through somatic exercises and guided exploration, we create space for healing, emotional release, and deeper self-connection.
• Integration & self-care tools – You’ll leave with practical techniques to continue regulating your emotions and supporting your healing journey outside of sessions.

While Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapy is a powerful and healing approach, it may not be suitable if:

• You are experiencing acute psychosis, schizophrenia, or severe dissociation and are not under medical care
• You are looking for a quick-fix solution—this is a gentle yet deep process that unfolds over time
• You are actively in a highly unsafe or abusive situation where other immediate support may be more appropriate
• You are not ready or willing to engage with body-based awareness and processing

If you’re unsure whether Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapy is right for you, feel free to reach out with any questions—your comfort and well-being are our priority.
