About Ranges Psychological Services

Compassionate and Evidence-Based Care

Ranges Psychological Services provided by Alison Hicks dedicated to providing compassionate and evidence-based therapy and assessment services to adults and children.

Benefits of Therapy Services

Personalised and Comprehensive Care

I work with adult clients who are seeking to understand their internal systems and the protective mechanisms that sustain unhelpful behavioural patterns, such as mental health symptoms, relationship difficulties, and parenting challenges. While many clients possess insightful strategies and an understanding of their behaviours, this awareness alone often falls short in overcoming persistent challenges. Therefore, I offer an approach that complements existing skills, fostering a deeper understanding of your internal system and facilitating the processing of subconscious experiences. This work is typically longer-term, ensuring thorough exploration and support.

​

Evidence-Based Interventions

 My treatment approach is guided by, but not limited to, three main phases that incorporate evidence-based practices. These include  Polyvagal mapping to recognise the effects of nervous system dysregulation on current functioning. Together, we develop strategies that promote a return to a state of safety within the nervous system.  Schema and/or Parts therapy to help  understand your internal world, identifying subconscious protective behaviours that may be hindering progress toward living the life you desire. Neurobiological therapies EMDR/Brainspotting to process stuck and subconscious experiences that contribute to these challenges.

Empowerment and Resilience

The work I offer emphasises empowerment and resilience by equipping you with the tools and insights needed to navigate your internal systems. By understanding the impact of subconscious protective mechanisms, you are able to make informed choices and cultivate healthier behaviours. 

Holistic Wellness and Growth

My approach promotes holistic wellness and growth, addressing the interconnectedness of mental, emotional, and physiological aspects of a client's experience. This multifaceted approach encourages growth and transformation, enabling you to live a more fulfilling life that is aligned with your true values and desires.
