"Aaron has a deep understanding of trauma. He manages to gently acknowledge the tumult of thoughts and emotions then focus on the body and, through some alchemy, allow release of long held burdens, leaving you feeling clearer and lighter. He gave me safe space to understand what needed healing in me and then to let it go without having to tell all the painful old stories. I went to him after a traumatic car accident and ended up releasing a lifetime of reaction to abandonment and unmet needs. Highly recommended!"

"I arrived at Aaron's office in a state of high anxiety. After 18 months of feeling like this almost constantly, 3 therapists, psychiatry appointments, numerous doctors and doing all the right things (exercise, drinking water, nature, yoga, meditation, eating right etc etc etc) I felt desperate and was well past breaking point. I didn't really understand what was going on in my own body, I just knew I needed it to stop. Within minutes I felt a shift in my system, not a miracle, a small but important shift. Aaron seemed to pinpoint what was happening for me, and why, within just a few short conversations. There is still a way to go, but for the first time I feel, not just hope, but certain I will get well. Aaron is hugely knowledgeable but also incredibly human, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED."

"I recommend somatic experiencing as a therapy, particularly for anyone dealing with identified or unidentified trauma. Aaron makes you feel safe and heard during the treatment. He’s using a powerful method of releasing trauma from the body and helps you to build resilience as part of the process. I found him to be expert, compassionate and a deep listener. I highly recommend him."

"Aaron is a very kind soul who is easy to talk to and feel comfortable with, he creates a very safe space in sessions which means you really get the most out of them. I have found that engaging in somatic work has helped me massively in maintaining a regulated system whilst working through uncomfortable and difficult situations. Aaron has helped to support through some difficult times whilst also encouraging and guiding me to make better choices for myself, which I’m very grateful for."
Kathy Carter
"Aaron kindly agreed to offer me some ad hoc Somatic Experiencing sessions, which shows his flexibility and customer focussed ethos. I found our sessions enjoyable and thought-provoking, and an important part of my self care process at the moment. I would fully recommend Aaron, and can vouch for his warm, non judgemental and welcoming manner."
Emma Hanwell
"I have tried so many therapies to help me deal with my past trauma that affects my life so badly and few have really helped .. but Aaron has been a shining light from the beginning. He truly creates such a safe supportive space. I feel already there have been shifts in my perception of things and so many wins that I would not have thought possible … highly recommend him without hesitation xx"
Carmen Stoica
"I met Aaron after a number of difficult years in which I struggled with a dysregulated nervous system. Aaron has kindly and gently guided me to reconnect to my body. During the sessions he has also helped me to identify unhealthy behavioural patterns that were sabotaging my well-being and happiness. I am extremely grateful to Aaron and highly recommend him!"
Tom Eldon
"I would highly recommend Aaron! I've been going through a difficult few years and have tried a few types of therapy, without much sustained benefit. However I've found Somatic Experiencing much more helpful in learning to regulate my nervous system. In a fairly short period of time, I've found myself much more comfortable with difficult sensations and this has given me enough resilience to start to make other lifestyle changes, such as exercising more frequently and eating more healthily. Most importantly, I've found it really easy to connect with Aaron, which I think is one of the most important things to consider when looking for a therapist. I've found it easy to share whatever I'm thinking / feeling, which hasn't always been the case with other therapists."
Matt Black
"I've tried a variety of different modalities of therapy over the years and felt that, while they helped flatten out some bumps at the time, they didn't really identify or address the root problem. Working with Aaron over the last twelve months has been truly eye-opening as I can literally feel things changing during our sessions and I've been encouraged by my ability to finally see things more clearly. Aaron's patient support has helped me to be able to regulate and ground my system more easily both during our sessions and when I'm on my own."
Zuhair Mehrali
"I've been working with Aaron for around a year now and my Somatic Experiencing journey has been really enlightening. My nervous system is certainly shifting in various ways and I appreciate Aaron's ongoing guidance, patience and kindness towards helping me feel more embodied and present. Highly recommend!"
Maggie Boyle
"Thank you Aaron for the patient, gentle and caring support. A life changing journey. I have learned how to regulate my autonomic nervous system. This has helped me overcome prolonged distress, made me more resilient and helped me enjoy life again!"
Victoria Smith
"Aaron is both very knowledgeable & empathetic and I've found my sessions honestly invaluable. Having gone to him with some difficult stuff, deep rooted trauma and the resulting effect on my nervous system, I was only hoping to feel a bit better, but though it is a process, I feel stronger, calmer and more in touch with myself. I'm learning ways to calm my nervous system, increase my capacity to deal with life past and present, to notice and sit with the feelings in my body. I can't recommend him enough. He's a nice guy who really knows his stuff."
