Rachel Temple

I am a psychodynamically trained therapist with a specific interest in attachment and working relationally. I am a registered homeopath with the Society and have experience of listening to how the body tells us something is out of balance. I work with how we often push our painful feelings into our body to cope with our busy lives. Sometimes these feelings are unconscious to our minds and held in our body. Understanding and linking can provide great relief allowing us to feel whole again. 

At Heartlands we have a private oasis in the beautiful Southdowns. We are able to not only offer room based therapy but walk and talk therapy in 12 acres of completely private grassland. As a leap trained practitioner I also work with our small herd of horses to facilitate equine therapy. This is a wonderful opportunity to re-connect with your deepest self  - and perhaps go on a journey to find out who that really is. Horses offer unconditional regard in the present moment  - this can heal deep attachment wounds and relational trauma that has no words. The horses speak with their hearts  - and I have found this work to be extremely healing for clients who could not face 'telling their story'.

I offer an initial complementary telephone discussion to establish what you may be looking for, and if I feel that I can help.
