Meriel Camara

Do you find relationships confusing and hard? Perhaps you're struggling with destructive, abusive or addictive relationship patterns? I understand how difficult this can be, which is why I help survivors of relational trauma find peace within and peace with others.

I offer powerful Somatic Trauma Therapy that blends Havening with elements of Focusing, Hakomi, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, HeartMath and more.

Welcome to a way of working that is slow, because the fastest way is slow; inward, because the only way forward is inward; and gentle, because the most powerful way is gentle.

This work can be transformational - helping you to find an inner sense of safety, let go of old pain and love yourself back into wholeness.

Together, we can address the many ways in which relational trauma can affect your current life - perhaps through complex PTSD, dissociation, addiction, complex chronic health conditions or the exacerbation of neurodivergent traits.

Because relational trauma can span lifetimes and generations, this work also dives deep into your history - exploring shock traumas, early life experiences, traumatic grief, and even ancestral and past life burdens. 

If you want a taste of the peace that is your birthright, please do get in contact. I offer a FREE 30 minute discovery call. Somatic Trauma Therapy sessions are £60 for 60 minutes or pure Havening sessions are £50 for 50 minutes. I work online with clients from all over the world, or face to face in Bournemouth, UK.

Client testimonials

Working through very challenging times this year & I would have been completely at sea without Meriel, who immediately recognised & thoroughly understood the problems. Her knowledge, experience & insights have been invaluable in finding a way through the maze of practical difficulties whilst at the same time helping me to manage often overwhelming emotions. In spite of the complex issues, which have sometimes seemed insurmountable, the process has also been uplifting, inspiring & liberating. It feels as if I have been guided by a Guardian Angel! I am truly indebted & so very grateful for every minute of our sessions - thank you Meriel for being there... ??

"Meriel's personal care was tangible. Her attitude and joy went a long way so that I could relax and really open up to the get the most out of the process. What we worked on had been a life long challenge and burden. To be free from it with a completely new and empowering perspective was like gearing up to clean up a nasty mess only to discover a chest full of treasure just beneath the clutter. I can now move forward professionally without the fear that has plagued me my whole life."
