"Pam is incredibly skilled at what she does, she offers a safe, non-judgemental space to work through whatever is needed.
She takes your lead and the sessions are purposeful and effective.
Pam helped me work through so much, after each session I felt lighter, more empowered and a different/better version of me, EMDR is life changing.
For anyone reading this and on the fence, that was me.
Make the call, send the email to Pam, you will not regret it. Worth every single penny.
Thanks so much for everything Pam! x" 🥰 🙏

It’s always great to get positive feedback, but knowing that therapy has made such a difference to someone is why we do it. And remember, research indicates that giving compliments can reliably increase your personal well-being.
This positive feeling can be more enduring than the effects of self-focused actions.

Like our body, the mind can often heal naturally, with much of this natural coping mechanism occurring whilst we are asleep and linked to Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep.

During everyday life, our body routinely manages new experiences and information without us being aware. However, when a traumatic event occurs such as an assault or a car crash or when we are repeatedly subjected to distress as with child neglect or domestic abuse, our natural coping mechanism can become overloaded.

When overloaded, such disturbing experiences remain unprocessed and frozen in the brain.
Traumatic memories are maintained in an isolated brain network associated with emotions and physical sensations, which is disconnected from the region where we use language to store memories.
Often the initial traumatic memory itself is long forgotten or buried, yet feelings of anxiety, panic, anger and despair are triggered in the present seemingly without reason.

Through EMDR it is possible to unlock the traumatic memories, reprocess them and free the body from the unwelcome emotions and sensations.

🤗 Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day. 🫶

Don't let this year's event pass you by!

For 2026, the theme is "Lived experiences heard: Real voices, real change".

Everyone goes through difficult times, and today more than ever, people are facing increasing pressure.
Poor mental health can affect anyone, and is often linked to experiences like trauma, money worries, or stress.
Trauma can take many shapes, and its impact feels different for everyone, making every experience unique and personal.

In June 2017, a Science Daily article highlighted the very encouraging outcomes of a research study undertaken by the University of Amsterdam and Trauma Center for Children and Youth.

The research paper was also published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and found that children and adolescents with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can be successfully treated with only a few hours of EMDR or cognitive behavioural writing therapy (CBWT).

As a trained EMDR Child & Adolescent therapist I can offer your child the therapy needed to overcome trauma.

We all face tough times in life: work stress, health problems, relationship issues, to name a few. These can be hard and it’s only natural to struggle.

We often can’t change what happens to us, but we can choose how we respond.

We can boost our resilience by focusing on the things we can do rather than things beyond our control.

Remember, a problem shared is a problem halved, so share your struggles with a friend. They may be able to help you find a silver lining, however small.

Why not take a positive pause to do something you enjoy like reading or listening to music. Taking your mind off the issue helps you to return later feeling refreshed.

However difficult life gets, we always have some choice over how we respond.

Tomorrow is Youth Mental Health Day, which takes place every year on 18th September.

The awareness event is organised by stem4, and it brings together young people, schools, families, professionals and organisations across the UK to focus on helping young people thrive.

According to stem4, nearly half of young people in the UK say economic uncertainty makes them feel hopeless about the future.

Wars, job insecurity, the cost of living, climate anxiety are all the daily backdrop to young people’s lives right now.

But 70% of young people still say they’re determined to achieve their goals.

YMHD 2026 is about meeting young people where they are, acknowledging what’s hard, and helping them build forward anyway, one step at a time.

Please join Evolve Therapy in helping young people to thrive.

There is increasing robust evidence that movement and exercise not only improves your mental health but also protects it.

When we exercise, we produce many hormones, all of which contribute to making us feel good.
These mood-boosting effects kick in even at a low level of exercise: it increases positive emotions AND decreases negative effects.

A single session of exercise can improve your mood for several hours, and with a regular routine, movement can promote long-term, continual improvement.

Walking for five minutes can be a mood lifter, so try combining it with socialising, time spent outdoors and/or music.

Just moving for three minutes to your favourite song will make a difference, whilst doing 15-20 minutes of aerobic exercise three times a week will create long-term more significant benefits.

Unlock a Better Quality of Life with EMDR

When the brain’s survival instinct overpowers rational thought, anxiety takes control. EMDR therapy desensitizes these responses, helping you face life with a clearer mind.

Experience less grief, depression, and anxiety, and improve your overall quality of life.
