About us

Our values & behaviours

We practice as we preach, working as a network, crafting a program to your unique needs. Every member of that network believes in human-led approaches as a means to achieving positive and sustainable growth.

We believe in leading by example and our values act as our shared language to ensure we stay connected and always put the human beings we work with truly at the heart of everything we do.

1. Authentic Presence

We show up with honesty, warmth, and integrity in every interaction. We honour each person’s unique story and create safe, non-judgmental spaces where clients and staff can be fully themselves. We believe healing begins when people feel genuinely seen and accepted.

2. Therapeutic Connection

We believe meaningful connection is the foundation of mental health and recovery. We build trusting, respectful relationships with clients, families, and communities, knowing that strong therapeutic bonds create the conditions for growth, safety, and hope.

3. Empowering Recovery

We support people to take an active role in their own wellbeing. Together, we set goals, build skills, and strengthen independence. We focus on strengths, not just symptoms, and work alongside clients to help them move forward with confidence and dignity.

4. Inclusive & Trauma-Informed Care

Everyone deserves care that respects their identity, culture, and lived experience. We practice trauma-informed, culturally sensitive approaches and actively remove barriers to access, ensuring that every person feels valued, respected, and supported.

5. Compassionate Curiosity

We listen deeply before we act. We remain open, reflective, and committed to learning — from our clients, from evidence-based practice, and from each other. We ask thoughtful questions, stay curious about each person’s experience, and continuously strive to improve the care we provide.

Working ethically

At Holistically Human™ our counsellors, whether qualified or in training, are hand picked and screened for suitability. Checks are also made to ensure safe professional practice. All of our therapists and staffed are DBS checked and have all completed CPD in whole-human therapy which means they are working with trauma-informed practice.

Scope-of-practice & ethics

Core Scope Statement

Holistically Human™ practitioners work within their core professional training and accreditation. Mind–body approaches are used to support regulation and awareness, not to diagnose or treat medical conditions outside scope.

What We Do

  • Support nervous system regulation
  • Integrate body awareness into therapeutic work
  • Offer psychoeducation grounded in neuroscience
  • Work collaboratively with other professionals

What We Do Not Do

  • Provide medical diagnosis or treatment
  • Replace medical or psychiatric care
  • Use body-based practices without consent
  • Push emotional processing without regulation

Ethical Positioning

Whole-human care is not about doing more — it is about doing what is appropriate, safely, and at the right time.
