I first met Tim in August 2016 , I remember driving to his home feeling anxious and sceptical.
Why sceptical?
I had been on anti-depressants at that point for 12 months and had had several counselling sessions and although the anti-depressants took the edge off the counselling had not really worked for me.
I felt I was living on the edge all the time; I had emotions that swung from borderline suicidal to powerful highs. My home was my secure place where I could not be hurt or touched and at times I found it hard to leave it. The bouts of anxiety and sometimes pure anger meant my nearest and dearest never knew what to expect, or what mood I would be in. It was affecting my personal life and relationships, making me insecure and feeling unworthy. My past was anchored too me and hunched my shoulders and closed me off.
At our first meeting Tim explained that past experiences are stored in the body because we still carry the emotion that was attached to the experience and we began talking about what I had experienced in my life.
Tim then began our session based around what came out during that chat. I was no longer anxious at this point. Tim, as a person, is very calming with a warmth that puts you at ease, he explains supports and encourages you along the way.
The outcome was nothing short of remarkable, it’s hard to explain the sheer joy and delight you feel after seeing Tim. For me it was like walking out of a storm and into the warmth and stillness of a summer’s day. My mind was quiet for the first time in as long as I could remember, I felt lighter taller and released. My anger was gone and I mean the stomach churning anger that affects your whole life.
I’ve seem Tim several times since, and by March 2017 I was off the antidepressants and practising Tim’s amazing techniques at home, when anything cropped up that I struggled with. My life is totally different now, and the picture I paint for my life and future is from a totally different palate. My life is lighter and more fulfilled. My journey isn’t over but thanks to Tim and his brilliance and friendship I face life without stress or anxiety, and I’m excited about the future
