Have you been the victim of Bullying, Cyber Bullying, Domestic violence, Sexual abuse. Emotional abuse. Trauma caused through your work as Police or Armed forces, or through a Road Traffic Collision. In my experience we go through our lives, being traumatised by various issues, and it slowly weighs us down until it becomes debilitating. Yet within a really short period of time, I can help release you from this pain. I work with young people & adults dealing with mental illness, anxiety, substance issues caused by trauma.
I find most effective is treatment for Trauma is EMDR, which helps desensitise the emotions connected to traumatic memories. It is amazing how quickly this treatment can work on most traumas. Much quicker than most talking therapies. EMDR is not a talking therapy, therefore, it works well even if the person would prefer not to talk about painful memories.
PTSD is a real condition. If you can answer YES to these symptoms. Give me a call. 1. Flashbacks/disturbing dreams. 2. Avoiding reminders of previous scary situations or people. 3. Easily scared/ startle easily 4. You feel on high alert. In just 15 minutes time through a friendly conversation with me, find out how easy it is to get the help you deserve.
