About the Author: Christina Sage

I am a craniosacral therapist, a mindfulness practitioner and yoga instructor and therapist with over 25 years’ experience. I specialise in the fields of mental health rehabilitation, trauma and substance misuse.

"I want to thank you so much for helping me to recover and heal from my traumas over the last two years. I want to thank you for helping me to uncover and make sense of the feelings and emotions that have troubled and been a mystery to me for so many years. I want to thank you for teaching me how to tune into my body and to hear what it is saying to me, and how to give the parts of myself that are hurting attention, understanding, love and compassion."

"Therapy has changed my life. I never thought I could feel this good about life. I feel calm and joyful, instead of tense and afraid. I have the courage to stand up for myself and to set boundaries. Things that would cause me great distress now barely bother me, which I never thought could be possible. Charlie has helped me to work through the things that have happened to me and unlearn harmful behaviours."

"My treatment has included, amongst other things, EMDR, I have learned techniques that I can use, as and when I need, to help me through my day to day life and on in to the future. There was a stage when people asked me “can you see the light at the end of the tunnel”, I would always answer, “I’m not even at the tunnel yet’. I’ve now been through the tunnel. There is light at the end of it. Thank you Claudia. Life changing."

"Charlie is the best therapist I’ve seen by far. Initially, I was jaded about seeing a new therapist as I never felt a genuine connection with my prior ones but his warm, empathetic, and honest approach put me at ease very quickly. He has managed to help me be less reactive during conflict, process prior trauma and has ultimately given me the strength to leave my abusive relationship."

“The sessions I had with Claudia were absolutely transformational. Now, after many years, I can honestly say that the positive effects I gained are undiminished and I return almost daily to moments of profound insight and clarity. The experience has certainly made me a more contented person and I am convinced that I am a better father and a better husband."

"I recognise people and relationships in my life in a different way now and can see how their positive or negative energies affect me and my precious energy. I have learnt to be alone and very happy in my own company and often find myself craving for a some alone time when I have had a busy social week. This time last year, when I first came to you, this exact fear of loneliness was the cause of my panic attacks. I am so proud of how far I have come."

"At my lowest point in life, Claudia offered me that gift. The chance to be seen, heard and understood. I have been left with a deeper sense of who I am and an internal compass which helps me to better understand myself, learn to trust my intuition, live in a way which reflects my values and share the happiness I have found in myself with the world. I am left with gratitude that Claudia helped me and guided me along that journey."
