EFT Mentors

I am an EFT, MBIR™, Angelic usui reiki and a trauma release trainer.

My career has always had multiple aspects.

Originally, I trained as a specialist in special needs teaching assistant. Working with a variety of learning needs such as Autism, ADHD, Personality Disorder, Complex needs, Brain injury and more. In this facility, I also taught meditation, aromatherapy and hairdressing to children in the post 16 facility.

After the birth or my own son, I found myself very emotional and uncertain of what to do and how to do it. This led me to seeking out a sure start Centre who helped me immensely. On my return to work, I decided to work more in depth with parents and their children, as I had found this so helpful myself. Helping parents to understand and nurture their child’s development through the ages and stages.

I had a long career with Sure start/Startwell center’s, where I taught parents about motherhood, attachment, brain development, sensory development and nurture. At the same time, I was on my own journey with my son who was extra sensitive. I did not know how to help him, and I found no support in the system. I was the person who people sought out, to help them with the early stages of behaviour.

I had to help myself and I combined my knowledge of development, with my personal passion of self-development. I trained in meditation, EFT and yoga for children and. I started to work on myself and teach my son with huge benefits. I realized that he was picking up on my helplessness, stress and behaviour.

I began to teach groups of children meditation and I also brought this into my session delivery with parents.

I began to see positive effects on children and parents.

My sessions have been observed by OFSTED and I received personal appraisal on my work. I was told that my knowledge and delivery was more than outstanding, it was exceptional, and my assessor had not witnessed this level of delivery in a playworker before.

I was sought out by local colleges, to teach my work as a further education course for parents in the community. I wrote my own programmed of delivery for new mothers, which had record attendance. I was again observed by OFSTED and received personal appraisal about the quality of humanness in my delivery, with an exceptional level of knowledge.

I have a very rich inner spiritual life, understanding energy and how patterns run through us and through generations of our families. I have the ability to put energy patterns into words, in a very simple and understandable way, so that people can take this information and transform themselves.

In 2016 I decided that I wanted to take my work further. I wanted to see if I could work with parents in-depth over several weeks and help them, to help their own children with their struggles, just as I had. Not just this, I wanted to see if I could train professionals to do this too.

This was no easy task, so I decided to do some pilot work with a group of new mothers and babies and a group of mothers who had primary aged children. It worked. I saw children become calmer and happier in themselves and I saw mothers talking openly, reducing medication, seeking help where they had previously been scared to and stress was lifting.

In 2017 I was awarded funding for 3 years by Wigan council. I had the job of training staff and providing wellbeing sessions for struggling parents within schools and strartwell settings.

It has been phenomenal for parents, children and schools.

Parents saw

• Reductions in epileptic seizures
• Antidepressants have been stopped
• Pain has gone and never returned
• Panic attacks have stopped and never returned
• Painful abusive experiences have been dealt with and resulted in freedom for people.
• Relationships have been ended where needed and moved forwards where needed.
• Relationships with children are now on a whole different level of understanding and response, rather that reactivity.

Children have seen

• Better sleep
• Less or no anxiety
• Fears/phobias have gone
• Hitting and hurting has stopped
• Self-regulation has become the norm
• Eating has improved
• Confidence and communication have improved.

School staff have felt and witnessed the above and now have the ability to help children, staff and parents, in house at their schools.

Outside referral is not the first port of call anymore. Instead parents are referred into a 10-week group and modalities are used with children. One school reporting a 70% reduction in referral. All schools reporting a significant reduction in referral.

Staff wellbeing has also been dealt with in house, where the programme is used with staff on inset days and modalities can be used as and when needed.

This work has been phenomenal and very rewarding. I cannot wait to see these schools in 6 years’ time when their reception children, who now use modalities automatically, are in their last year of school. The results will be immeasurable, and I am very proud.

Now I feel it is time to show the world how.

These times are intense and complex and there are not enough of us, we need more people who are ready to step up, shine their light and do this work in our communities. My work can be used with anyone, in any predicament. Whatever your passion is, it will help you to lead in a new way.

There is just one requirement. Walk your talk and speak your truth.
