The power of Havening Techniques to prepare for future events

?"Jo helped me to prepare for an upcoming event that I was dreading and also needing to support others through. I had a session with Jo beforehand where she walked me through the upcoming event, step by step starting from the night before. Using the Havening Techniques, we set the energy at each point, we built in all the support, strength, trust and peace I needed. She took time and care to make sure I felt thoroughly comfortable and prepared at each stage. When it came to the day the energy was there to meet me. I went to bed peacefully the night before as we had visualised and slept well. On the day I felt peaceful and supported and everything went really well. I felt able to hold and support others and even calmly navigated unexpected things in the day. I felt strong and proud of myself and pleased that I had been able to provide the support others deserved. I actually look back at the event as a positive experience and all of this is dow to Jo, the power of the Havening Techniques and the love and care she gave me"

Havening as a life skill for emotional wellbeing

"Working with Jo has been an absolute delight on so many levels and I am now able to use Havening at any time for my own emotional wellbeing and this is proving to be a huge benefit in my life - it is simple but so effective. Jo is such a kind, empathic, non-judgemental person, with years of experience, I would thoroughly recommend working with Jo, it has supported me moving forward with my life."

Profoundly effective

?"I can't stop recommending this every chance I get. Havening Techniques is without a doubt the most profoundly effective therapy I have ever experienced, and has in only two sessions completely changed my internal life. I have shifted deep rooted beliefs, and what's more the sessions are fun and I came away feeling happy, relaxed and light each time. I can't thank you enough Jo and I'm sure anyone that comes to you will feel the same way"

Havening Techniques for chronic illness

"I have been working with Jo via Havening whilst healing from chronic illness. It is no exaggeration that I have been absolutely blow away by the effectiveness of this technique in helping me come to terms with my illness, as well as addressing underlying anxiety at its source, dealing with chronic pain and current physical limitations and generally deepening my overall understanding of, and connection to, my true self. I am absolutely sure that the hugely beneficial results of these sessions will stay with me for the rest of my life. Each session is very much led by how I am feeling on the day, what's coming up for me recently and what I'd like to take a deeper look at, whilst being sensitively led by Jo's expert guidance. We never look at anything that I do not feel comfortable with at the time, however through a number of sessions we have gently peeled back the layers and reached the core of the issues, which can then be addressed. Jo is extremely kind, caring, encouraging and competent; I have always felt comfortable during our sessions, and trust her fully. I could not be more grateful for Jo's support, which has been pivotal in my road to recovery, and I can see how the Havening Techniques could be extremely healing for so many"

Emotional and physical release from past pain and trauma

"My havening sessions were an emotional and physical release from all the pain and trauma I had experienced. I truly let go, and learned how to soothe my soul and reconnect with my inner self, with Jo's gentle guidance. I felt safe, secure and comfortable embarking on my healing journey with Jo! Thank you so much for your non-judgemental, calm and loving support"

Havening for panic and anxiety around cancer diagnosis and treatment

"I first came to Havening with Jo shortly after being diagnosed with breast cancer. My panic attacks had become utterly unmanageable as I navigated terror for my life. Jo helped to anchor me back into my body with the self soothing techniques. Together over the following weeks we explored the inner territory's of my early childhood traumas, reframed the upcoming mastectomy and further milestone events on my continued journey through cancer. If you are seeking someone through troubled times, anxiety, panic, old patterns or behaviours or health situations then consider Jo as your guide. She is exceptional; kind, graceful and deeply skilled in this work. She has my heartfelt thanks for all that she has witnessed and held for me thus far. Havening is profound in its simplicity. Thank you for introducing me to this life skill Jo"

Past trauma triggered by grief

"Jo supported me with the Havening Techniques whilst I was going through a difficult time with grief which triggered past trauma. I wanted a therapy that was gentle on my nervous system but would really help me to recover. I feel blessed to have found Jo as her empathy, warmth and expertise in Havening has been transformative to my health. I looked forward to seeing Jo each time (on Zoom) because I felt safe in exploring difficult past issues. I learned a lot about myself and I frequently laughed as Havening is fun whilst being incredibly powerful too. Thank you Jo for your care and support at a difficult time. You are truly gifted."

Relief from chemical sensitivity and chronic fatigue

I have found Jo’s knowledge of the Havening Technique to be a real help, she has enabled me to deal with a number of long-term issues which needed to be addressed.
 
When I met Jo, I had long term problems with severe chemical sensitivity to inhaled chemicals so much so that I had to run many air purifiers in my home. I was unable to visit  places and I could not cope with anyone visiting my home wearing perfume or workers using strong smelling products in my home.
 
Since working with Jo my level of sensitivity to chemicals has reduced considerably which has made my life easier and less complicated as my reaction is much less severe.  Sometimes I do not even notice some chemicals so I don’t react at all which is a great improvement.
 
Jo is outstanding at observing comments and body language; she keeps a detailed  record of what is said and the emotions attached to the words.  She is extremely good at observing small details and giving helpful and profound feed-back of what she has observed.
 
My doctor referred me to Jo and initially I was very reluctant to share my issues but Jo is patient and eventually I was able to discuss them and the sessions I have had over the last few months have been very beneficial and now we still keep in touch regularly but less frequently.
 
Since working with Jo  I am less tired and I have not had any episodes of chronic fatigue.  Life is easier and more fun and I am less worried.
 
I am grateful for her help which has enabled me to move forward.
