Welcome to We are Vega!

We are Vega is an alternative to regular therapy where we do things differently and introduce you to a new way of working.

We’re bringing accessible, usable and effective therapy to everyone who needs it, demystifying trauma, attachment and anxiety so you can gain some real understanding. We’ll teach you how to tune in and listen to what your body is telling you, helping you understand how past experiences shape your life. We provide you with ability to take your mental health and put it back into your own hands, so you can get healthy and stay healthy, empowering you to be who you really are.

We’re building a community of like-minded people, who can face challenges with a positive and confident attitude together. This is a community of people who are serious about making changes and are willing to try something different.

Understanding Your Mental Health

How is it all connected?

Most of us have some awareness of the connection between problems we encounter now and early life experiences. However, we often don’t know how they are connected or why they may affect us the way they do. We created the Vega Map as a way of showing you all these connections and links for your mental health. We aim to make those connections clearer, giving you insights and understanding, helping you get onto the healing path that is right for you. It’s a great way to learn where your behaviours or certain patterns have come from and why they might be there.

Finding the right therapist for you

Nearly all of Catriona’s clients have had previous therapists, it can be really hard finding the right one. We all have the same brain, body and nervous system but we have all had different life experiences. We all have different coping mechanisms, different attachment styles and belief systems. One size does not fit all and it’s the therapists job to make sense of the clients experience. We explain what therapy should really do for you, and how to know if the therapy you’re currently in is right for you.

How often do you let your judgements overrule, instead of just being curious? There is so much information and so many guides available online about mindfulness, lots of people are talking about it and many suggest using it. However, it can be difficult even grasping what exactly it is and how you can actually try it yourself. As we grow closer to Christmas, for a lot of people, stress & anxiety levels really start to ramp up. This is especially true when it comes to keeping in check of boundaries. HOW TO INCREASE YOUR EMOTIONAL CAPACITY: When we're overthinking or our thoughts are racing, it's usually focusing on something from the past or in the future. Connecting to your body allows you to be present and in the moment. A lot of people have heard of attachment, but not many people properly understand it. Why it's important or significant, where it comes from or how we develop it. It greatly impacts on all our relationships and friendships, so the more you can understand about your own attachment style, the better.
