Mental health services
My approach integrates traditional therapeutic practices with equine-assisted psychotherapy, mindfulness, energy work, and personalized strategies to support clients in managing stress, anxiety, trauma, and behavioural challenges. Through these sessions, I aim to empower individuals to find balance, gain self-confidence, and build skills that support long-term well-being.
PTSD Counselling
PTSD Counseling offers a compassionate and safe space for individuals seeking healing and support from past trauma. This counselling is designed to help you process and release the lingering effects of traumatic experiences, using therapeutic techniques that are tailored to your unique needs.
​
In our sessions, we’ll explore grounding exercises, trauma-informed cognitive and behavioural strategies, and mindfulness practices to help reduce the intensity of distressing memories and increase your emotional resilience. For those open to it, equine-assisted therapy can be incorporated, as working with horses has been shown to provide grounding, gentle connection, and a unique, calming presence that aids in trauma recovery.
​
Through PTSD counselling, I aim to create a supportive environment where you can safely address the impact of trauma, learn healthy coping mechanisms, and gradually regain a sense of control, empowerment, and peace. I aim to help you reconnect with yourself, reclaim your inner strength, and build a hopeful path forward.

CBT/DBT support
A CBT/DBT session is a structured, supportive experience focused on developing skills to manage challenging emotions, thoughts, and behaviours. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps you identify and reframe negative thought patterns that may be contributing to stress, anxiety, or other struggles. By learning how your thoughts influence your emotions and actions, CBT empowers you to adopt healthier perspectives and responses.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) complements this by emphasizing mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Together, CBT and DBT provide a comprehensive toolkit for managing difficult situations, improving emotional resilience, and fostering a balanced outlook.

Counselling
A counselling session is a supportive and confidential space where individuals can explore personal challenges, emotions, and relationships with the guidance of Melanie Mardon. The primary goal of counselling is to help clients gain insight into their thoughts and feelings, work through emotional difficulties, and develop coping strategies for handling life's challenges. Unlike coaching, which is more goal-focused, counselling addresses a wider range of emotional, psychological, and interpersonal issues, providing a therapeutic environment for healing and personal growth.
​
During a counselling session, the counsellor may use techniques such as active listening, empathy, reflection, and gentle questioning to help the client articulate their concerns. The counsellor works collaboratively with the client, helping them explore underlying patterns, identify sources of stress or conflict, and develop new perspectives. Sessions are tailored to each individual's needs and may include practical coping strategies, mindfulness practices, and self-reflective exercises.
