"Mental Health Issues"

(as the patient),

Prior to working with my Therapist, Liz, I had been suffering with very poor metal health that affected many aspects of my life including anxiety, overthinking, hypervigilance, severe lack of sleep, was on medication and struggling at work due to PTSD. 

Liz taught me various techniques to help manage and resolve many issues using EMDR to address unresolved traumatic incidents. Without her help I would have had to give up work and my situation would have become much worse.

I have nothing but the highest praise for Liz and the team, they are real lifesavers and have enabled me to turn my whole life around. Hopefully NHS funding will improve so that the team will be able to help many others on the treatment waiting list much sooner.

Thank you so much for your feedback regarding your treatment within our service. I have shared your feedback with Elizabeth and will be sharing with our wider team. Feedback really does allow us to see what we are doing well or how we can improve so thank you - and a personal thank you from Liz!

I am really glad you have had such a positive experience within your treatment and the improvement it has made on your mental health.

I apologise for the wait time that you experienced, we are doing our best to improve waiting times within our area. We have increased staffing over the last year and hopefully will continue to see reductions in our wait times.

Thank you again for sharing your story with us. We really do appreciate it.
