About me and my Practice
Following personal injury and subsequent surgery, I left the field of nursing. During the course of recovery, I myself benefited immensely from therapy. These benefits encouraged me to retrain to help others in a similar way. My experience has been formed by rigorous training, ongoing professional development, my own batch of life experiences and listening to the numerous accounts of others.
I have learnt it can be good to talk to someone who is not directly involved in your life, helping you see things clearly, make sense of them and form different perspectives and insights. This can be most self-empowering for you!
I also have advanced training in post trauma therapy as in “Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing” (EMDR). EMDR helps to release the pain of recurring difficult memories or emotions from the past which are continuing to trigger you in present day. When used in the hands of an experienced practitioner, it can have profoundly favourable affects utilising only, your own minds natural healing processes.
“Maybe you are struggling to make sense of things…. I feel sure I can help you to break through and reach understanding. Don’t worry if you are uncertain which therapy can help you as we can work that out together. I can advise and help to plan your way forward. Everyone is unique and individual, with a different set of requirements. Often following sessions, people feel a sense of relief, as it might of been the first time they have been able to voice or express difficult feelings”…
