   I reached out to Juna for EMDR therapy after going no contact with a parent left me overwhelmed with guilt, heightened emotions and constant triggers. My thoughts, feelings and upset were consuming me and draining my self-worth, affecting everyday life. From the beginning, Juna’s approach felt different to any counsellor I’d seen before. She never pushed me to go over every tiny detail of my past. Instead, she helped me understand human behaviour, what is actually within my control and how I can respond to difficult situations. I learned how to set boundaries without feeling guilty for them. Throughout our sessions, I gradually became less overwhelmed by emotion and far more in control of my responses across every area of my life. The articles and resources Juna shared were genuinely life changing for me. She challenged me in all the right ways, encouraging progress while always making me feel supported and understood. I now feel lighter, stronger and better equipped to move forward. I can’t thank Juna enough for the difference she has made. Highly recommend.

   Juna has helped me enormously with dealing with past trauma. She used a combination of EMDR and invaluable advice to give me the tools and techniques to manage my mental well being confidently and effectively. She is, I believe, a true empath, providing a safe space to explore and dissect trauma, and giving the means and ability to help me get through challenging situations. She has literally changed my mindset and the way I process negative emotions. I highly recommend Juna, she is excellent!

   In my experience it takes a combination of different treatments, as well as working with a therapist, in and outside of the therapy room, to resolve problems. Through working with Juna, we were able to drastically improve my bowel movements, something that had been a consistent problem throughout my life. I went from having a very painful bowel movement 3-4 times a week, to having one a day on average with little to no discomfort. This was through a combination of, EMDR treatment with Juna and on Juna’s advice some EFT Tapping, also I was doing Yoga Nidra and Meditation daily to regulate my nervous system. The combination of regulating my nervous system through different modalities, letting go of the emotional trauma through EMDR therapy and utilising the EFT Tapping in real time to relax and shift both the physical and mental blockages allowed me to finally let go and release. I believe how you choose to turn up, and how well you’ve informed yourself prior to seeking treatment, has a big impact on the results gained from any treatment or therapy. I did a lot of research to understand the potential of the treatment, turned up with hope, open and realistic, with the intention to work alongside a therapist and to do work to support the treatments. I knew that the only way out was through the pain and the only person who could get me through was me, however I needed help and support, this came in the form of Juna. Working with Juna was ultimately a joy, there was a lot of laughter and yes just as many tears and a lot of anguish, but we got there. If I require future treatment I would turn to Juna. She has uplifted me, she meets you where you are at, can see and hear what’s required, is in it with you and can be no nonsense at times which is precisely what was required for me.

   I want to say a massive thank you to Juna for helping resolve my daughter's phobia of loud sounds. She became terrified during a Formula 1 show when she was a little girl, and suffered panic attacks for several years afterward. It was a difficult situation. At first, she couldn’t go to concerts, movies, or places like bowling alleys. Over time, it got worse—she would ask me not to watch TV around her, play music in the car, or even dry my hair, as any of these could trigger a panic attack. I was desperate to find a solution for her. We had a series of hypnotherapy sessions with Juna, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. By the end of the sessions, Juna took my daughter to a large shopping mall where music played constantly, and eventually to a busy bowling alley. She even shared pictures of my daughter enjoying herself—I was absolutely shocked. We were also given tools to use between sessions, which were incredibly helpful. Thank you so very much!!!

   I can’t recommend Juna enough for EMDR. She made me feel so comfortable and welcome, she was so easy to talk to and went above and beyond to understand your trauma and provide the most effective support. I really believed my trauma was something that was going to be a huge shadow over me for the rest of my life and Juna proved to me that life doesn’t have to be that way. I ended my sessions feeling like a huge weight had been lifted and ready to get on with my life again which I never thought was possible. Thank you so much Juna!

Juna is a great listener and therapist with a fantastic intuition and an extensive professional knowledge. The sessions felt relaxed and safe, it seemed very easy - a really enjoyable process. Many many thanks Juna!

   A big thank you to Juna-after a couple of years struggling with symptoms of dizziness following some traumatic events my Mum was beginning to lose faith that she would ever feel fully well again. After failed attempts with various approaches we stumbled upon Juna- obviously knowledgeable and highly skilled in her field, she is also kind, patient and deeply understanding of the nature of such conditions. It was clear from the first session the effect on my Mum was profound, this was quite emotional at the beginning but as sessions three and four passed it became clear that these persistent symptoms had all but subsided. An uplifting experience, thank you, Juna.

   Juna helped me to solve the problem which I couldn’t solve for many and many years. I’ve changed 3 psychologists and nobody could help me. I felt that something is wrong with me and I just need to accept it. I was lucky to find Juna and brave enough to tell myself that I will solve the trauma from the childhood. Juna listen to me and opened my mind very carefully. Step by step we went trough my fears, doubts and dreams. Juna was like a guide into my mind and she has helped to separate my fears and wrong beliefs from the trauma events. We have also tried hypnotherapy and it helped a lot. I can be myself now without any fears and anxiety. I can breath, enjoy my life and be happy. Juna, thank you for being such a great person and amazing professional. If you are reading my review and thinking of getting help, don’t doubt, Juna will help you!

   Before visiting Juna I had already undertaken CBT therapy followed by Psychotherapy but both had failed to adequately deal with my anxiety and low mood which had weighed on me for many years. From the very beginning Juna made me feel totally at ease and I was able to talk to her openly. She is very skilled in being able to tease out the important issues that need to be addressed and made sense of. I feel like a weight has been lifted after many years of carrying a heavy burden. She is compassionate, caring and non-judgmental and I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending her.

   After suffering with extreme anxiety & being diagnosed with ptsd I decided I needed help & came across Juna. After having an initial assessment Juna told me she 100% could help me,never having any kind of therapy or counselling I was glad to hear this but wasn't sure what to expect. Juna is so skilled at what she does ,she puts you at ease & is kind,caring & understanding. After a few sessions & Juna teaching me techniques for me to use specific to what was happening to me my symptoms have reduced massively! I cannot thank Juna enough for helping me progress through a time I was suffering mentally. Juna is brilliant at what she does & I without doubt highly recommended her.
