Integrative Counselling for Anxiety in Paisley:
A Path to Wholeness

Integrative Psychotherapy + Neurobiological Regulation for Anxiety​

​

At Seomra, we offer a sophisticated, multidimensional approach to anxiety management that prioritises neurobiological regulation alongside traditional psychological inquiry. By integrating evidence-based modalities with clinical precision, we help clients navigate the complexities of their internal landscapes through both top-down cognitive restructuring of the mind, and bottom-up somatic processing from the body.​

Evidence-Based Anxiety Treatment: Integrating CBT, ACT, and Somatic Therapy​

​

Our practice bridges several core therapeutic pillars to provide a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to individual diagnostic needs:

​

• Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) & ACT: We utilise CBT to identify and challenge maladaptive cognitive schemas and intrusive thought patterns. This is complemented by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which fosters psychological flexibility and cognitive defusion, allowing clients to align their actions with core values rather than reacting to anxiety-driven stimuli.

• Person-Centred & Humanistic Foundations: At the core of our work is a Person-Centred ethos, ensuring a robust therapeutic alliance and a non-judgmental space where the client's lived experience is the primary guide for intervention.

• Creative & Expressive Modalities: We incorporate creative methods as a therapeutic tool, facilitating non-verbal processing of emotional states that may be inaccessible through traditional discourse.

​

Somatic Regulation & The Autonomic Nervous System

​

Effective anxiety therapy requires more than cognitive insight; it requires the direct modulation of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). Our sessions integrate somatic interventions designed to address the physiological markers of distress:

​

• Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) Down-Regulation: We work to mitigate the fight-flight-fawn-flag-freeze-flop responses, reducing hyperarousal, tachycardia (pounding heart beat), and the somatic tension associated with chronic stress.

• Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS) Activation: Through targeted breathwork and grounding protocols, we stimulate the vagus nerve to engage the rest-and-digest response, promoting a felt sense of safety and internal equilibrium.

• The Somatic Connection: By focusing on the felt sense and bodily sensations, we help clients complete stress cycles and release trauma stored within the physical self, moving beyond symptom management toward true systemic recovery.
