Why Choose Us?

EMDR Intensives

At Retreats-4u we offer bespoke residential compassion focused attachment informed EMDR Intensive retreats in a beautiful Spanish villa.

If you are someone that wants to quickly resolve symptoms of your traumatic experience/s, or speed up your recovery process, intensive EMDR is for you.

Ayurvedic Treatments

At Retreats 4-u our ayurvedic practitioners develop personalized treatment plans based on an individual’s unique dosha composition.

These may include: Herbal Medicine, Yoga and Meditation, Purifications Programs and Counselling.

Sound Healing

Sound healing is indeed a fascinating and ancient practice, leveraging the power of sound vibrations to promote healing and well-being.

It taps into the innate connection humans have with sound and vibration, benefiting mental and physical health through intentional auditory experiences.

Hatha Yoga

Hatha Yoga enhances flexibility, joint mobility, metabolism, and respiratory health. The practice improves circulation, cellular repair, lymphatic stimulation, etc.

Mentally, it sharpens focus, balances emotions, and effectively reduces anxiety and depression.

Reiki

The practice of Reiki is a unique healing method developed by Mikao Usui in Japan in the early 20th century.

It is based on the concept of a natural healing energy that operates on multiple levels, not just the physical, and is believed to enhance the body’s innate ability to self-heal.

Other Therapeutic Modalities

At Retreats-4u, our culturally diverse psychotherapists and psychologists have extensive experience utilizing EMDR and other treatment modalities in a variety of global settings.

Approaches utilised by our therapists include but are not limited to: Attachment-Focused, Somatic and Affect-Informed EMDR, person-centred, solution focused, etc.

What is EMDR and how can it help you?

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy developed by Francine Shapiro in 1987, aimed at treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health issues. EMDR leverages the brain’s natural ability to heal itself, a process that occurs similarly during REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep.

One key benefit of EMDR is that it doesn’t require clients to discuss distressing issues in detail. Instead, it enables the brain to access its natural healing processes. As a result, EMDR often requires fewer sessions compared to other forms of psychotherapy.

Client Testimonials

"I was lucky enough to be referred to Nancy via the Royal Marines Charity. Last year and into 2024 I was struggling in many areas with my mental health and I really do believe that without Nancy things could have spiralled out of control. Her understanding, empathy and innate quality of addressing route problems with care and understanding were first class. Never judging, always listening and mindfully aware of my wellbeing throughout, her delivery of careful and methodical emotional support helped me in more ways than I can list. I owe her a great deal".

May 2024

"Nancy has helped me to name the difficult things in my life for what they are. She has gently encouraged me to unpick years of coping behaviours and given me permission to stop carrying these burdens and to move forwards in my life. She sees people, relationships and situations with huge shrewdness and nuance and is not afraid to call things out. Her gentle encouragement worked wonders for my son, and allowed him to express - possibly for the first time - his true lived experience. Nancy came along at just the right time for us, and I will be forever grateful to her."

"First class treatment via referral from the Royal Marines Charity. Quality empathetic and understanding care. A good listener, non-judgemental, and mindful practice, I owe Nancy a great deal".
