The EK Reset

Not every difficult moment calls for ongoing therapy. Sometimes you simply need the time and space to pause, make sense of what’s happening, and reconnect with yourself.

The EK Reset is a focused, one-off therapy session designed to help you slow down, understand what your mind and body are telling you, and leave with greater clarity about your next steps. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, facing a life transition, struggling with stress or anxiety, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, an EK Reset offers dedicated time to explore what’s most important to you.

Using our trauma-informed, body-based approach, your therapist will work alongside you to understand your current experience and support you in finding a greater sense of safety, grounding and direction. There is no expectation to continue with therapy afterwards, although if ongoing support would be beneficial, we’ll discuss the options available to you.

The EK Reset is available as a 50 or 90-minute session online using a secure platform.

How to book
Book a complimentary 20-minute consultation if you’d like to discuss whether it’s the right option for you. We’ll match you with the therapist best suited to your needs and arrange a time that works for you.
