From Kegworth it's roughly 10 miles down the A6 / M1 J24 to the Wilson Street clinic in DE1. Clients often combine in-person sessions with online sessions between appointments, particularly during busy weeks.
For EMDR, the toolkit here spans 8-phase EMDR protocol, Flash technique, resource installation. Which combination is used depends entirely on what's presenting in the room — not on a fixed protocol pushed onto every client.
How sessions run
- Step 1
Bridge sessions with tools
You leave with practical tools so between-session weeks are worked, not wasted.
- Step 2
Prepare for real life
The final phase rehearses the pattern under normal life stress, so results don't collapse the moment life gets busy.
- Step 3
Map what's actually happening
The first sessions build a clear picture of the pattern — not just the symptoms, but the driver underneath.

Common questions from Kegworth
Can EMDR be done online?+
From the Kegworth caseload, Yes — remote EMDR is well-supported and I use it regularly with clients across the UK.
How many EMDR sessions will I need?+
For a single incident, often 6–10. For complex or layered trauma, longer, and with more preparation.
Can EMDR help with phobias?+
Yes — especially phobias tied to a specific event or moment of first fear.
Is EMDR the same as tapping?+
No. Some tapping techniques share surface similarities, but EMDR uses a defined 8-phase protocol and specific processing steps.
How do I know if EMDR is right for me?+
The 15-minute intro call is designed exactly for that.
