P-Therapist Petra Nunzi
The Fulfillment Specialist
Niche – Individuals who are looking for fulfillment: Career or Personal Adolescents.
Parents and Adolescents dealing with anxiety and/or transition.
Expertise
My clients achieve results because they’re ready to put in the work necessary to create change. My biggest successes have been with parents, adolescents, and individuals looking for career-change or overall life fulfillment! We can re-frame stress, anxiety and mental health issues so that they are gifts rather than set-backs and allow your whole authentic self to achieve fulfillment.
Overview
My clients are ready for change. They’re ambitious, curious about the world and ready to find out how to fully live their dreams and create their unique impact in the world.
Petra has an incredible ability to unlock parts of my mind that no one else can. The smart bit however is that she doesn’t do it; she gets ME to do it, which is more rewarding. -Male 42
Petra has been extraordinary. She’s gone above and beyond and has helped me more than words can express. –Female 45
In only a few sessions Petra has helped me gain a much clearer perspective of my problems and has helped me profusely in the road to solving them. I cannot recommend her enough! –Male 20
Approach
Do you ever feel like you’re just reacting to life? You’re constantly busy or anxious but never sit back to think about where you’re headed. You may pause and look back thinking that a lot of stuff has happened but then realise none of this stuff is connected to who you truly are or what you truly want?
Imagine if you could map out where you want to go and write the detail in your story. Imagine if that’s the story you lived your life by…imagine that you consciously made choices about your life instead of having things happen to you. Imagine the possibilities of us working together to make your dreams a reality.
I offer a program focused on results – We will discover what fulfillment looks like for you and map out a way of getting you there.

-General relationship difficultiesOverview
I am a relationship and psychosexual therapist who aims to build a warm and respectful relationship with my clients to explore current and past concerns. Working together I aim to bring insight and a deeper understanding of the situation and possible behavioural patterns.
We are not born lacking confidence. As we grow things tend to happen to us, and over time this accumulation of “stuff” tends to control the way we think and act. Often we need new ways of looking at old situations to free us from the past and to empower us for the future. Everybody has difficulties and challenges at some point in their life. I see therapy as a collaborative process between client and therapist, which help to identify problems and unhelpful patterns that stop us from living our full potential both as individuals and in the couple relationship.
Approach
I use a variety of tools and use an integrative therapeutic approach. At P-Therapy I offer couples and individuals a safe space to look at relationship and psychosexual issues and concerns. I work on the principle that negative memories, beliefs and fears are stored in our systems and are the root cause of many emotional and physical difficulties. They hold us back, and keep us locked in repetitive negative patterns. I support clients in clearing and changing limiting beliefs, and allow them to release and free themselves from emotional blocks.

BRIAN MAHAN
The Trauma Specialist
Niche – Somatic Experiencing
Overview
Brian D. Mahan, SEP, was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in 2003. He suffered daily from 7 to 10 full-blown panic attacks, following a catastrophic automobile accident. After just a few sessions with a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), he was completely symptom-free. He immediately contacted The Somatic Experiencing Training Institute and committed to study the lifework of Dr. Peter A. Levine.
For the next three years, Brian studied the physiology of stress and trauma and continued to receive personal sessions. He quickly discovered that healing trauma of one event had a global effect on other events, as well. In essence, he set out to resolve panic attacks as a result of a car wreck and, simultaneously, found relief and broke free from habituated lifelong patterns that were related to developmental traumas.
Approach
Brian now helps other trauma survivors who struggle at times with stress, anxiety, panic attacks and PTSD. He specializes in working with both developmental traumas (birth traumas, abuse and neglect, attachment/detachment issues, etc.) and shock traumas (divorce, loss, falls, car wrecks, medical procedures, acts of violence, rape, torture, near-death experiences, etc.).
Brian is an educator, author and practitioner in private practice. He is also a guest lecturer, assists Maggie Kline, Senior Faculty Member at The Somatic Experiencing Training Institute, and holds retreats and seminars, focused on re-establishing a sense of safety and re-awakening embodiment through healing stress and trauma.
“Somatic Experiencing” (SE) is a short-term, naturalistic approach, developed by Dr. Peter Levine, to renegotiate and heal both shock and developmental trauma. SE employs the awareness of body sensation to safely and gradually allow the autonomic nervous system (ANS) to unwind, discharge, reorganise and return to resilient homeostasis.
Stress, anxiety, panic and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder are oftentimes misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mistreated. In the U.S. alone, 42 billion dollars per year is spent on the treatment of PTSD. And, women are twice as likely to suffer then men. However, men are less likely to seek treatment.
The ANS and lower brain’s fight/flight/freeze response, otherwise known as ‘survival instincts’, is how we are physiologically hard-wired for survival. Consequently, stress and trauma occur in the body, not in the event, as they are the body’s reactions to past, unresolved “threatening experiences.” Although there may be psychological implications, trauma is inherently a physiological condition.
The word “trauma,” unfortunately, overshadows the intricacies and insidiousness of the long-term effects of dis-regulated autonomic nervous system, whether said threat were real or perceived. Sometimes these unresolved physiological events can remain dormant in the body for years before becoming triggered again.
The easy way to differentiate stress from trauma is that any event is considered traumatic when the symptoms of arousal (reaction) don’t settle, even after the threat has passed.
The results of this body/mind therapy include relief from stress, anxiety, panic attacks, hyper-vigilance, habits and addictions, patterns and cycles of self-sabotage, and dissociative behaviours. It brings on a sense of reawakening and access to instincts which elicit feelings of groundedness, centredness, boundaries, empowerment, being “in the moment”, safety and joyfulness.
Brian offers session both face-to-face for local clients and by phone and Skype for clients nationwide and internationally.

ADELINE KAM
The Detox Specialist
Niche – Hypnotherapy/ Hypnoanalysis
Expertise:
· Anxiety and panic attacks
· Phobias
· Issues with self worth, self esteem and building confidence
· Emotional issues
· Chronic stress
Overview:
Hypnosis is very relaxing, and that in itself has many benefits. The more I work with the mind, the more I am in awe of its power.
My interest lies in getting to the root cause of problems and clearing it rather than treating the presenting symptom/s. This quote offers a good analogy – “Problems can be reduced to a few core elements. It’s like looking down into a weed infested pond”.
“At the surface it looks dense and impenetrable, but look below the surface and you’ll find everything at the surface is connected to just a few roots. You can spend forever hacking at the surface tangle but, sever the roots and everything clears.”
This is the therapy I practise.
Approach:
Trained as a psychotherapist but finding from experience, hypnotherapy to be more effective as it helps clients tap into the power of their mind to bring about the desired change.
In talking therapies, the conscious mind with its limitations prevails but in hypnosis the vast, infinite, inner mind is activated, hence changing for the better is easier and quicker.
Having practised hypnotherapy for 18 years, most clients come to see me mainly because:
- They want to stop what they are currently doing/feeling – for example smoking, comfort eating, drinking too much alcohol, feelings of shame or guilt OR
- They want to do/have something that’s currently missing – for example play better golf, have peace of mind, the confidence to succeed, to be happy.
From years of experience working with clients, I find alcohol abuse, comfort eating, smoking are some of the techniques clients have used to get away from the nebulous ‘dis-ease’, ‘that’s inside themselves but outside their control.’ But these distractions are only temporary, what is needed is to find the root cause of the symptoms so they dissipate from the mind body system.
My goal is to help clients understand and safely release the emotions from their past, (generalized free floating anxiety) so that they can live adaptively in the present, whilst reaching out confidently for a brighter and happier tomorrow.
I offer a free 20 minutes consultation in North London to answer any questions or concerns about hypnosis as well as to discuss techniques that will best achieve the clients’ goals.
My therapy is client centred, I am also trained in NLP (neurolinguistic programming, Ericksonian hypnoisis, eclectic psychotherapy and emotional freedom techniques (EFT) and educational kinesiology.
Fees & Availability: Tuesdays and Thursdays – 9am – 7pm
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays – evenings only.
Sessions cost £85. I give concessions to the aged, young and unemployed, just let me know during our free consultation.

RICHARD MARK
The ADD/ADHD Specialist
Niche – Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
Expertise
I have a particular interest in ADD/ADHD, the neurobiology of trauma, Post Traumatic Stress and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Emotional Freedom Technique, mindfulness practice and the relationship between mind and body in wellbeing. An important part of my work is psychoeducation – explaining the therapeutic process to clients and why they may be experiencing what they are experiencing. In my experience people are less anxious when they have a better understanding of what they are experiencing.
Overview
My integrative training and holistic approach allow me to work with each client as a unique individual, and to help them find solutions that are appropriate to them. I am Director of the Emotional Freedom Techniques Training Academy, an accredited psychotherapy supervisor, and I was Director of a psychotherapy and hypnotherapy training organisation for twelve years.
I have always been interested in people and what motivates them, their thoughts, beliefs and behaviours. A significant proportion of my twenty three years in the corporate world involved working with interpersonal issues with staff; eventually I decided to pursue that aspect full time.
Approach
I am an Integrative therapist with fourteen years’ experience in private practice and the voluntary sector. My training covers counselling and psychotherapy from different perspectives including hypnotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Emotional Freedom Techniques, bereavement counselling, mindfulness practice and cognitive and behavioural techniques.
I have worked as a counsellor for the UK’s largest addictions charity and a leading mental health charity. I am currently the consultant psychotherapist to an organisation working with people diagnosed with ADD/ADHD and their families. I am experienced in working with a broad range of emotional and psychological concerns and habitual behaviours, trauma and PTSD.
I provide practical skills training to clients, such as Emotional Freedom Techniques, mindfulness practice, self hypnosis and cognitive and behavioural techniques. Underpinning my work is a person or client-centred approach, a recognition that therapy is a collaboration, a journey of discovery for both participants. One of the world’s most respected therapists once said that each time he saw a new patient, he would invent an entirely new therapy. This acknowledges the uniqueness of each individual’s experiences and their way of being in the world, and that therapy needs to be tailored to the specific needs of each person.
Fees & Availability
My fees are £60 for a 1 hour consultation via Skype, phone or face to face. I offer some concessionary spaces to unemployed or low income, please contact me for more information.
I am available for Skype and phone consultations on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays from 9am to 8pm, please check my booking schedule for exact hours. I am also available on these days for face to face consultations in Upper Beeding, West Sussex. I have a comfortable and pleasant therapy space in my home.
