EMDR Therapy:

EMDR Therapy focuses on resolving distressing memories, body sensations, and limiting beliefs from the past, present, or future. It helps identify how past memories affect current issues and relationships.

Through EMDR, you’ll change how you feel, see, and believe about yourself, leading to greater joy and ease in life. You'll experience less impact from past memories, feel more present, and gain confidence to express your needs and feelings openly, free from guilt and shame.

Testimonial

“After 40 years of carrying trauma, I reached out to Rachel not having had any previous experience in EMDR or trauma therapy.

At first I was very nervous, however Rachel was so calm and responsive to my nervousness at the first appointment, I found myself being able to relax.

Rachel's way of guiding me through the process of trauma therapy and EMDR helped me greatly and gave me the confidence to continue.

The EMDR has been life changing for me. It was at times very difficult to go back to the  trauma, however I no longer hold it in my body or my mind, it is no longer a 'movie' that I replay frame by frame.

My trauma no longer defines who I am, it is an event that occurred at a time in my life, it is acknowledged and then it is gone.

I cannot imagine traveling that path with anyone but Rachel. Her empathy, warmth, encouragement and guidance through the trauma therapy is something I will always be grateful for” - Yvette

"Rachael is such a warm person and I always feel at ease sharing conversations with her. Each session provides insight and I always come away from our conversations with a deeper understanding of my experiences, alongside strategies to continue to work through things in my own time. The use of EMDR has been incredibly beneficial for me and I would highly recommend this treatment approach, particularly with Rachael as their therapist." - Alice 

 

 

Introduction to EMDR Therapy

 

EMDR Therapy explained

 
Trauma is not just an event that took place sometime in the past; it is also the imprint left by that experience on your mind, brain and body
