About me and my therapeutic journey
After experiencing debilitating trauma and emotional challenges from a young age, tried a huge number of different therapies over the years, trying to improve my emotional, mental, and physical health.
I spent so much time and money on treatments and therapies desperately trying to recover and heal, none of which made much difference, and many of which were even re-traumatising.
I found a type of eye-movement therapy (IEMT) which enabled me to swiftly and effectively recover from my seemingly most unsolvable problems and completely changed my life, unexpectedly quickly.
My experience inspired me to train in it and develop my own therapeutic practice, to help others recover efficiently and fully like I did. Many of my clients have also been surprised by the speed and effectiveness of the therapy, and have experienced lasting and life-improving change, just like I have.
Working with clients, I use a combination of:
- Eye movement techniques
- Somatic experiencing practices to help regulate the nervous system
- Compassion and experience supporting each individual I work with, in whatever may come up during our session
Depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, OCD, addiction, phobias (including emetophobia and misophonia)disordered eating, grief and loss, disassociation, sleep problems, guilt, anger, and shame.
Some specific issues have included: sexual assault, child abuse (sexual, psychological, physical and emotional), childhood neglect or isolation, relationship issues, miscarriage, abortion, narcissistic abuse, car accidents, challenges faced by those with neurodiversity, existential crisis, bullying and more.
Our sessions will be completely confidential. I provide a nurturing space where my clients can share as much or little as they wish, and still receive effective support to resolve their issues. I am experienced in working with autism, ADHD, and am trauma-informed.
