“I found the process complemented my previous therapy well. It gave a Christian insight into my healing which was helpful, though also challenging. I loved the Brainspotting, a great way to find peace from traumatic memories.”

- Alexandra - age 54

“I’m in my mid-fifties and had never taken the time to speak with a coach, but wish I'd done it earlier. I looked forward to my sessions with Rhonda. She never interrupted and was able to be strength based with what she saw in me. I didn’t feel bad for any of my thoughts or talked down to. I trust and respect her.” 

- Cathy - age 55

“Brainspotting helped highlight past traumas stored in my body. For years I've suffered with neck and shoulder tension. Rhonda's integrated approach helped me understand and adapt my coping behaviours. I now I feel I have choices. After working with Rhonda I've had a notable reduction in pain, despite lifestyle factors remaining the same. ”
