Spent this morning at the Torbay’s international men’s day. Main topic was around men’s mental ill health. Great to see fellow veteran and mate Steve Gaskell talking about this subject and his Book 5 and 20’s.
It was also good to meet a load of people actively involved in and covering the whole holistic approach to maintaining good mental wellbeing.
It all starts with an introduction, a chat and a little knowledge sharing that opens the door to further learning, development, connections and support.

We are down to our final six places for our EMDR Accredited Part 1 Training beginning 28th January 2026.
Alongside Dr Button’s excellent teaching, the training room will include additional EMDR facilitators and facilitators-in-training, all of whom are EMDR Accredited Consultants. This means there will be no question that can’t be answered, offering a rich depth of knowledge, experience, and support throughout the training.
This combination creates an exceptional learning environment and a highly supportive space for developing your EMDR skills.

Parts 2 and 3 can be booked separately if you can provide your Part 1 basic training certificate from a previous EMDR Europe Accredited Trainer.

Another successful teaching day over the weekend. Alex providing the opportunity for EMDR therapist to go over the 8 phases, AIP, 3 prong approach, Blocking, working with complexity, further template, and many other useful hints and tips to reinforce existing knowledge and helping to build and maintain confidence for therapists to take back to their own practices. ♥️

The great thing about EMDR is that within the worldwide membership there are people also specialising within topics and adapting EMDR to work with all conditions.

Here is one such condition that is very much needed and requires more understanding within the military community Traumatic brain injuries. 👏💂

Sharing another EMDR story

I was caught in my thoughts and I didn’t realise a man had got close to me. The next thing I knew, I felt something sharp in my back.
