I had my first session with Venka today (I have PTSD and C-PTSD) and instantly felt lighter as I released a series of traumatic experiences. Venka did RTT incorporating a tapping technique to rewire the neural pathways, and in doing so she taught me a lifelong skill, so I definitely got my money's worth! And as well as the 2 and a half hour session today, she is doing a recording for me to listen to at home, and has recommended me a book. So I feel like a I got a lot out of today. :) Thank you, Venka!

It took only two sessions with Venka to bring about a positive change to my life. Venka is an absolute professional who helped me understand the reasons behind the issues I struggled with for so long. Her therapy techniques just work, I know everyone is different but for me the changes were very quick, I was surprised just how effective they were. If you are struggling, need some help then I would absolutely recommend Venka, she changed my life.

I saw Venka to help me overcome my PTSD from a bad car accident as traditional counselling only made it worse. Venka was very reassuring and calm. The treatment took about 1.5 hours and I left feeling completely different, calm and lighter. I no longer have flash backs.

The problem I contacted Venka for was anxiety related, with big life changes coming up and a new relationship that caused me anxiety as well. At worst of times, the endless “thinking loops” caused me sleeping issues where I couldn’t fall asleep as well as waking up a lot during the night. These sleeping issues have started a few years ago when I had some other life changes going on, so it seems to be a recurring thing that I don’t seem to be able to relax when stressed or in times of uncertainty. I have tried CBT before when I had sleeping issues. I always felt good after a session and it certainly helped to be more aware of my own thinking patterns. However, I didn’t feel that I had any useful tools in an acute crisis when overthinking. Venka was very welcoming, she made me feel comfortable and we had an initial chat about the problem I’d like to tackle. After the session I had a weird sensation in my body – I felt exhausted, but incredibly relaxed and relieved at the same time. It’s really hard to describe. The exercises Venka taught me, particularly the one where I’m “parenting myself” has an impact on me to this day and I revisit this thought whenever I feel lonely or anxious and it has a soothing effect on me and I calm down more easily. I catch negative / anxious thoughts more easily now and have techniques to calm myself down. I’m now able to see the upcoming life changes in a more positive and exciting light (rather than a state of panic) and look forward to the adventure that is life!

I had been seeing a psychotherapist in Bond Street previous to making an appointment with Venka. The first session was a deep-dive into my limbic system, and Venka was a calm, empathetic and professional guide. She adapted the session to suit my needs. I left feeling lighter, yet more grounded.

I have suffered from severe anxiety and PTSD for over 30 years, had CBT, group therapy and counselling which only made things worse. I tried to cope by drinking. Venka was recommended by a friend, it was my last attempt at therapy. She gave me a safe place to be myself and she fixed me, glued me somehow back together in three sessions with 'home work' in between. Powerful stuff that changed my life.

EMDR had been recommended to me by a couple of people. I was at a crisis point and felt backed into a corner with no where else to go. I figured that I had nothing to lose and everything to gain. I was dealing with recurring nightmares and anxiety around two frightening incidents in my life. Both were affecting my day to day life and both were affecting my relationship with my boyfriend. I had tried conventional therapy. It didn’t help because my pattern of thinking never changed, instead I would over complicate the issue by talking non stop about it. It would throw up feelings and thoughts that were not helpful to me. I was skeptical, but open minded to try Venka’s method of Bi Lateral Analysis Stimulation Technique (improved EMDR). It was deceptively simple. I followed instructions, answered honestly and relaxed into the process. I wanted it to work, I didn't want to fight the process or try to outsmart it. After the first session I feel less frightened. My heart doesn't race in the middle of the night and men don't scare me the way they did. I feel I am able to sift through negative thought patterns and think a lot more clearly now. I am no longer being crippled by a past experience. No more panic attacks. It took longer and was more expensive to run from my past than it was to confront it and heal from it.
