About me
Relief from trauma
Many of us sadly will experience a level of trauma at some point in our lives; and for some, the aftermath lingers. The good news is that however severe the symptoms, there's now real hope for a full recovery.
A life without trauma
By applying cutting-edge and gentle complementary techniques, alongside the latest understandings from neuroscience, the day to day struggle and devastation can permanently dissolve.
Since 2002, I've worked with all types of trauma & PTSD - psychological, emotional, physical, and sexual.
Symptoms can include:
- loss of confidence
- inability to focus
- hypervigilance
- anger
- difficulty forming healthy relationships
- domestic violence
- self-hatred
- low self-esteem
- shame or guilt
- anger/rage
- panic attacks
- insomnia
- nightmares
- flashbacks
- addictive behaviours
- obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
- fears of death
Recently relocated from London & Home Counties to East Devon, I enjoy seeing clients at the friendly Pebble Brook Clinic, Newton Poppleford, near Sidmouth. I also offer telephone & online (Zoom, Whatsapp) sessions if appropriate.
"Phi. I'm not facing the door!!"
A former member of the Armed Forces who with complex PTSD had for many years been virtually housebound & unable to work. Previously hypervigilant, this realisation during his 2nd session was the turning point in his recovery. Within 4 weeks he was able to use public transport and attend job interviews. Within 10 weeks, he was holding down full-time employment.
"He is a gentle giant, an extraordinarily peaceful and humorous man with whom I felt completely safe to express my thoughts and confusions. Through his help, I made substantial shifts in my mindset, which meant that the difficult decisions I had to make were suddenly not difficult at all. I would recommend him to anyone who finds they are stuck and struggling to achieve the goals they set themselves.”
