What Makes Us Different?
We are a collective, not a corporation.
Here Completely is a curated group of deeply experienced therapists who choose to work alongside each other because of shared values, not branding directives. Each of our therapists owns their own business. We share space, and an ethos. We think it works better this way.We are trauma-trained and trauma-informed, not trauma-trend-aware.
This isn’t surface language. It’s clinical training, lived understanding, and nervous-system literacy woven into our work. Nearly 50% of us are EMDR trained. Don’t worry, we’re working to get the rest trained…….We are queer-identified or fierce queer allies, not rainbow-washed.
Here, Inclusion isn’t marketing copy. It’s leadership, identity, supervision, and daily practice. It’s also shared safe spaces. We’re extremely proud to be a queer owned business, working in a women owned building, with queer women directors.We hold social justice as a clinical lens, not a slogan.
We understand that mental health doesn’t exist outside systems, culture, identity, and power. We’re going to help you see this too, and maybe smash some barriers along the way.We prioritise human connection over clinical performance.
Therapy isn’t scripted. It’s humans connecting with humans. We’re not a government entity, an insurance company, and we’re not a large, faceless corporation. This means we get to choose the work we believe in. Each of us. EVERY SINGLE DAY.We are relationship experts, not just symptom managers.
We help people build better relationships with partners, friends, work, family, and themselves. We believe this makes all the difference.We are experienced practitioners, not provisional quick hires.
Many of our therapists have years (sometimes decades) of practice behind them. We’re pretty proud of this.We are passionate about the work, not burnt out by it.
We choose this field. We care deeply about doing it well. We also all manage our own books and don’t have corporate KPI’s. This gives us the flexibility and ability to quickly adapt and make decisions that support us all. Every single day.We are diverse in modality and identity.
Different styles, different personalities, different lived experience. This means you’re not stuck with one flavour of therapy.We build community for therapists, too.
When clinicians are supported, supervised, and connected, clients benefit. We did that on purpose. We think you’ll like it.
We aim to be as transformative as possible and support your personal growth & development in every way possible
