Valerie Gage

Accredited Trauma Therapist (MBACP), Clinical Supervisor & Founder of The Quiet Root®
Valerie Gage - Therapist & Counsellor

About Me

I’m an Accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist (MBACP Accred.) and Trauma Therapist, offering therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I am recognised by AXA, Aviva, and Cigna for eligible clients.

I have over 14 years’ experience supporting people navigating trauma, long-term grief, relational strain, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm. I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Trauma Therapy and am currently completing advanced training in Somatic Experiencing®, a body-based approach to working with stress and trauma.

My approach is steady, relational, and thoughtful. We begin with care and clarity. You don’t need to arrive with everything explained or organised. Therapy offers a consistent space to understand patterns — in how you relate, how you respond under stress, and how you have adapted over time.

For couples, the work focuses on communication, recurring relational patterns, and the impact of stress on connection. The aim is not to apportion blame, but to create greater understanding, stability, and mutual accountability within the relationship.

Sessions are typically weekly, creating the continuity needed for meaningful and sustainable change..

Supervision

I also offer clinical supervision to therapists, creating space for their full experience — both personally and professionally. Supervision with me is relational and grounded in body-based awareness, offering room to reflect, process, and reconnect with your own way of working.
