CK Therapy : EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing Therapy)
We often get asked What does EMDR feel like…
Just like in a big sort out of your home, in EMDR Therapy you may gently open the boxes of memories and experiences that have been tucked away.
Some things you might choose to keep because they matter, or they’re part of your story.
​
Some feelings can be put back where they belong, in the past, or to someone else, rather than carried with you or into the present.
And some things like shame that was never yours to hold can be carefully let go of.
EMDR isn’t about erasing what happened. It’s about sorting, organising, and deciding what no longer needs to take up space in your mind , you’re just making room to breathe.

EMDR is an intensive therapy. We often describe traditional psychotherapy as a walk, while EMDR can feel more like a run. Throughout the process, we will take steps to ensure you move at a pace that feels right for you, helping you stay grounded and safe enough for the faster pace when needed.
There is no “right” or “wrong” option our goal is simply to support you in reaching the place you want to be.
If you want to learn or ask anymore please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Finch self care app - App recommendation

9/2/2026

1 Comment

 
We’ve been loving this little self-care app called Finch and wanted to share it with you.

It’s kind of like a modern Tamagotchi.
You look after yourself and your Finch grows alongside you as a result.
Gentle, encouraging and helpful alongside therapy.

It’s a free app. You can set small, manageable goals, share any diagnoses if you want, and the app adapts support gently. There are also tools like soundscapes, grounding techniques and journalling. It helps you notice patterns by tracking moods in a really simple, non-overwhelming.
​
If you’re looking for something kind, low-pressure, and supportive, especially on days when motivation feels hard, we can’t recommend it enough. And it’s CUTE!
