Meet Michelle Doubtfire MBACP

​Trauma Therapist,

SSP and RRP Practitioner.​

Dealing with trauma,  extreme stress and chronic health conditions can be one of the most difficult things to endure.  Feeling overwhelmed and anxious is part and parcel of surviving and trying to cope and a natural part of the experience.

 

I understand that you don't really want to be here and that it might be scary. I've been there too. The hardest part is reaching out and making the first move. 

 

But I can say after 10 years of therapy and three years of SSP my life is happier; healthier and more expansive.  

 

I place a real importance on my own  personal development and training and looking after my own body and nervous system.​​
