“I gained so much from the sessions with Lucy, they have left me feeling much better equipped to handle future stresses or events in my life. I found EDMR incredibly helpful to reframe and properly process some traumatic memories. The talking sessions were compassion focused and have helped me to stop blaming myself and rather notice where I was trying my best and to value myself more. The sessions have provided me with tools to better control my emotions and lower stress, which I know I can use any time I need them…..the sessions really helped me to gain a better understanding of myself and to work through some tough emotions and memories in a place where I felt heard, safe, respected, and supported. 

Lucy is very kind, compassionate, and friendly…. I never felt rushed or like I couldn’t show how I was truly feeling, as the space she has created makes you feel welcome. If you are struggling with anything at all, I would highly recommend making an appointment with Lucy and sharing that journey to better mental health. It has allowed me to see a brighter future and to grow from my experiences rather than be weighted down by them.”

“I gained a valuable insight into my own mind and have been able to proactively question some of my thinking. We applied different methodologies to address my phobia which was helpful in that I now have a toolkit to draw on going forward. I am far less anxious about many things but particularly the “what ifs...” thoughts. I also gained a wider knowledge of how the mind works which helped me to appreciate that I am not my anxious thoughts/phobia. This gave me the space to look more objectively at some of my thoughts which really helped with perspective.

The sessions have literally changed my life in such a positive way. I understand myself much more and an unexpected benefit is that they had a much wider impact than just dealing with my phobia. My initial goal was to simply be able to remove a spider, but I found myself recognising other areas of my life where anxiety was holding me back which I wasn’t previously aware of.  I was able to address that in a self-supportive way e.g. I successfully applied for promotion at work. I would absolutely recommend these sessions to anyone suffering from any kind of anxiety, it was one of the best things I have ever done for myself. Thank you Lucy!”

“Lucy was a relaxing presence from the offset...hence that comfort to disclose personal details to her was imperative for me to get better. I gained my independence back, something I lacked for a long time. Thanks to these sessions I was able to get back to doing everyday things, be they as ‘small’ as going to the shop or as ‘large’ as going abroad for holiday and getting a job. I also learnt to love myself and that my intrusive thoughts are not a reflection of me as a bad person, but rather part of the human condition to protect all of us!”

“I started therapy with Lucy following a traumatic series of incidents at work. When I started therapy, I was struggling to get back to my past levels of high performance, because of the unresolved trauma that I was carrying. It was also impacting my family life.

There was a lot of inertia to overcome before I finally contacted Lucy. All I can say is I wish that I had done it much sooner. Lucy provided a supportive environment, free from judgement, and worked with me to identify a therapy pathway that felt right.

Working with Lucy has been a great experience and has been really effective in getting me back to my ‘old self’, resolving the immediate issues but also helping with unresolved grief from much earlier in my life. I’d thoroughly recommend her support.’’

“I gained a much more diverse skillset than with other therapies I’ve tried. I was able to dive deeper into things I was struggling with than I was able to with short-term therapy and not feel rushed. If I hadn’t began having these sessions I would still be experiencing the difficulties I was at the start. I didn’t realise there were other things going on behind the scenes, and now these are gone I can see that the sessions helped in areas I hadn’t even thought of. Thankyou for your immense patience, kindness, and openness. It made a big difference in trusting you had a plan A, B and C to tackle such a complex issue. “
