Another ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review 👏

It’s so wonderful to work with clients who are willing to put the work in & as a result benefit from a dramatic improvement to their experience of life. Plus, they get to continue to use all their bespoke tools to help them navigate challenges for the rest of their life. Fantastic! 🙌

Another ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review, from a client who has noticed a big improvement since us using IEMT. I have permission to share their words.

“It has been 3 weeks since I had IEMT. I had a list prepared of memories that were the most prevalent and kept popping up. I had previously met Annette and had ACT therapy sessions. I felt nervous right up until stepping into the session. I felt at ease after Annette briefly went through what we would be doing, then worked through them. Instantly after Annette finished the exercise the memory was blurred and distant. The memories we worked with have not popped back during these 3 weeks.

On my second session Annette mentioned the word we attached to a few of the memories and some of them took me a while to even recall. It wasn't until then I realised how distant they now were.

It has made a difference to my day to day life. I'm no longer having these memories pop up at times which I found frustrating and unhelpful. It is very different from traditional talking therapy, which for me was an addictive cycle of repeating the same things over in a loop, keeping me in unwanted rumination, and the added weight of guilt and shame that it wasn't working. It gives immediate effective results.

Annette is warm, friendly and passionate about therapy and helping others. I now have my toolkit from ACT therapy and a clearer mind from IEMT. I feel like I am now the driver of my bus, in control of my life and choices. I feel like I have been given this new light and free space in my mind to fill with whatever my values desire, I'm still settling into it, and it is amazing. Thank you!!

Another ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review! The client wants to remain anonymous but has given me permission to share their words.

It's so wonderful for me to hear this feedback from the people that I work with. In just 6 sessions this client has transformed her experience of life from struggling day to day, to really thriving. She now has the confidence to know who she is and what's important to her, and she has a bespoke set of tools that help her get the most out of her life.

“Annette was comforting from our first contact. I felt able to share my struggles with her and together we were able to come up with a plan and some achievable targets. Our sessions were so personalised, which made all the difference; remembering little details about me and my life instantly made me feel comfortable and at ease.

Annette has such a wide variety of ‘tools’ and strategies to share so it was easy to find something that worked well for me and that have now become part of my daily routine.

When Annette suggested the IEMT, I was unsure of how this would work for me, but I was amazed by the results; I instantly felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders and it felt great to have some distance from the things that were holding me back.

I was kept accountable by my tasks in between our sessions and felt motivated to feedback to Annette how I had got on with these.

I would absolutely recommend working with Annette to anyone that feels ‘stuck’ with their mental health, their past or something else in their life. She has allowed me to feel like myself again and played an integral part of getting my life back on track. I would not hesitate to work with Annette if I ever become ‘stuck’ again.”

Here’s a little illustration by the late great ACT Auntie, Louise Gardner. I invite you to notice your own radio doom & gloom (or radio doubt, or radio worry; whatever radio station your mind plays), & unhook from it & just let it play on in the background as you do what matters to you this weekend 🤩
