Tanya has been a great help to me in dealing with past traumas and insecurities. After only a few sessions I feel back on the right path for a better future. I wish I had made the call sooner! Tanya makes you feel at ease straight away, takes the time to listen & gives you a safe space to open up, without any judgement. Thank you so much Tanya, I couldn't recommend you enough!

A big thanks to Tanya who has helped me overcome and deal with my severe anxiety and traumatic experience that i have been suffering for many years. She is really easy to speak to and is very understanding, If it wasn't for her therapy I wouldn’t be where I am today. Once again a big thank you to you Tanya for helping me!

Felt immediatly comfortable and actually listened to. Tanya helped me a great deal and already felt as if I could start making progress or shifting over herdles with the advice that was given. Other therapists had often forced their own perceptions of me and my lifestyle onto me but I immediatly felt so much more free and comfortable.I cannot reccomend enough.

Tanya was amazing and extremely welcoming. I have had therapy before that made me feel worse walking out of there and made me feel like my emotions were not valid. Tanya has given me a chance to improve my life at such a young age and i couldn't be more thankful. I was sceptical about starting therapy again because of previous experiences but i can genuinely say i enjoyed going to tanya because it meant i was a step forward to being happier in myself. Thank you so much for everything Tanya, I couldn't recommend you enough x

Where do I start! I've had 4 sessions with Tanya via zoom and I feel like a new person. I think she might have a magic wand 🪄 if you're not sure about counselling then look no further as Tanya made me feel relaxed and safe straight away talking about all sorts of things. Tanya I can't thank you enough you've changed the way I feel & think, which has had a positive effect in my personal and worklife ❤️If I need you again, I will definitely be back!!xx

So lucky to have stumbled across Tanya, she really has helped me with so many parts of my life. I had been to a couple of therapists before and the experience with Tanya was night and day difference from them. Highly recommend!

I was very sceptical about doing therapy again but, after the positive outcome a family member had I gave it a go. I wouldn't be where I am today without Tanya, she has completely changed my life, my thought process and just the way I see the world. I would highly recommend Tanya, she's a wonderful lady with vast amounts of knowledge in her field.

I was referred to Tanya by my workplace. After battling abuse, anxiety, depression and a suicide attempt I finally felt at a place to receive some therapy.Tanya made me feel so welcome and I never felt judged for anything I said. She gave me effective tools and guidance to move forward and helped he heal from some of my past traumas. I felt validated and listened to at all times. Also, as a trainee counsellor, Tanya really confirmed for me that this is exactly the job I’m meant to be doing.Thank you again Tanya.

Russ is the best of the best therapists out there. Over the past two decades I worked with many therapists to get through my personal life problems.Russ is the first and the only therapist who encouraged to dig deeper to understand the root cause behind all the recurring problems over the years. Doing so has been and is being life changing.Russ is very generous with his time and never ever rushed the process. He is exceptionally kind and has a very compassionate voice.I set out to write the best review I possibly can to thank Russ for helping me in the change I desperately wanted to see all my adult life, but reading all the existing amazing reviews, all I could add is that I 100% agree with all of them. I’m so so glad I trusted the reviews and contacted Russ. I’m already in such a better place, making the right choices for myself.If you are looking to speak to someone, don’t hesitate to approach Russ.Thank you is such a small word, but thank you Russ for all your help, patience and your valuable guidance.

We have been so happy with the help Tanya has provided our daughter and family.Tanya has always listened to our concerns and gently touched upon areas difficult to discuss. Our daughter has suffered from anxiety and a phobia. Tanya has worked with her to put together coping mechanisms for the future.It’s been refreshing to see Tanya, as she never made any big promises, but has certainly helped with our situation.I would recommend Tanya to anyone who is struggling and needs some guidance in a safe environment.

Well, what can I write that could possibly put into words what this person has done for me. Russ has literally changed my life. He is kind, gentle and powerfully insightful. He is what I call an Earth Angel, an Angel walking the earth. If you are reading this and wondering who to choose as your therapist, I could not recommend this place enough. If you would like your life back, then Russ really can help you, I promise you that. I cannot say thank you enough for everything you have done for me Russ, the words are too small, but THANK YOU!

Tanya has guided me through a very challenging part of my life. Her expertise, experience and incredible knowledge coupled with her kind and compassionate nature made me feel at ease immediately. I have been through so much self discovery with Tanya helping me recover from helplessness and despair and deal with so many issues past and present. After our sessions I feel transformed and ready to deal whatever life will throw at me next!

After having a rough go the past year and a half with a tremendous amount of anxiety which led to disordered eating habits, finding Russ through social media was a godsend. I had spent the past year trying to find a therapist which I felt confident could help me back to my happy and bubbly sense. After stumbling upon New Life Therapy and reading the reviews, I found Russ. And from our first meeting, I just knew that this was the therapist I was waiting on to help me.Russ was truly incredible. Kind, patient and guiding. Being no stranger to going to therapy before, I found that Russ's methods was so much more valuable than anything I've ever done before. After multiple sessions, I can honestly say that my anxiety has decreased tenfold, if not even disappeared. I am truly in tune with my emotions, allowing myself to feel them and being able to work through them in a rational way rather than beating myself up over them and then relying on destructive habits to get me through them. I never thought that after the past two years, that I would be this happy and calm again. This is the best I have ever felt, and despite working through old traumas, I am so glad that I did because it led me to finally feel happy again. The only thing I regret is not finding Russ sooner.I couldn't recommend Russ nor New Life Therapy enough. It truly is life changing!!!

I was recommended to Russ by a family member and I can honestly say I am forever grateful. I met Russ when I was at my lowest, unable to cope and in a constant state of panic. From the very first session, Russ made me feel very comfortable and helped me let go of some of the issues I had been holding on to. Within just 4 sessions, I now feel like I have my life back!!! I continue to practice all the tools that Russ taught me and I have built this into my every day routine. I am now able to cope with stressful events and anxiety and enjoy life. Thank you so much Russ, I literally cannot express my gratitude enough.

Incredible, i have taken part in CBT therapy before but didn't get to the root cause unlike the 4 sessions i had with Russ. He was so reassuring, so knowledgeable and each session i learnt a huge amount about why my brain was reacting the way it was and techniques on how to deal with triggers. Highly highly recommend and will pass his details onto my clients. Can't thank you enough

I would encourage any person to schedule a session with Russ. He approaches therapy with such kindness and understanding. I always look forward to the next session as I know that Russ will teach me something new and help shift my perspective. He has really taught me the importance of forgiveness and staying in the present. He is truly such a brilliant person.

I had the utmost pleasure to work with Russ for the past 12 weeks. I have been struggling with an eating disorder, anxiety and depression for the past 11 years of my life as a consequence of various traumas. I have worked with many therapist before Russ and I had never experienced such relief and clarity as I did after my first session with Russ. He has such a kind/warm heart and way of connecting with you from the very start which makes you feel psychologically safe and ready to tackle all your demons. Russ helped me understand and identify most of the deep rooted issues which caused me to feel and act in detrimental ways. I cannot thank Russ enough for helping me get out of such a dark place in only 6 sessions as well as discover my true authentic self. He has taught me several techniques and provided me some tools, which I can use everyday and lean back on during the tougher days. I would recommend Russ to anyone who is currently struggling and cannot see a way out - you would not regret it one second 🙂 Thank you SO much Russ, from the bottom of my heart!

I have been to a couple of therapists before and have never felt the connection like I did with Russell. He has a way of connecting and actually getting to the root causes of the issues you are dealing with. I have struggled with binge eating disorder and he has helped me so much. It is hard for me to open up and with him I was able to openly express my emotions and felt so comfortable doing so. He makes you feel welcome and no judgement. I have gone to other therapists where they made you feel judged. I would recommend Russell to anyone in need of help. He honestly helped me and I am so grateful for our sessions because I feel like a much better person. He has taught me several techniques that I can use everyday to help me. Thank you Russ!

After 12 weeks of therapy with Russ, I cannot recommend him enough.I have sought through many therapists in the past but never felt more comfortable and understood than I have with Russ.Thank you for restoring the belief in myself and allowing me to take back control of my emotions and life.

Russ from new life therapy has helped to transform my way of thinking and how I go about my daily life. Having never had therapy before I met with Russ to discuss an eating disorder I have been suffering with for many years. Russ not only helped me with this and to identify the deep rooted issues I have he also helped me to overcome many challenges I was struggling with. Such a knowledgeable man who gives off such warmth and is instantly likeable. Cannot thank new life therapy for all their help and guidance. I would recommend you to everyone!

Russ was very welcoming, encouraging, empathetic and supportive throughout. He was able to quickly identify what I was struggling with.He has helped me get to the root of my anxieties and guided me in changing my thinking so that I can live more peacefully. I always felt that I could be myself and say what I need to without judgement.Russ has honestly had such a positive impact on my life and we have worked together to rid my life from some of my rules & rituals of ocd, we've worked on my self esteem & why I care what other people think so much, we've also tackled my day to day anxiety. I'm in a far better place in my life since getting help from Russ, I cannot recommend him enough. It's so liberating to be freed from certain ocd & anxiety rituals and I honestly couldn't have done this without the help from Russ. He really has made my life more liveable.

I have suffered with multiple allergies for at least 15 years, I have had to take a nasal spray twice a day and antihistamines every day throughout those 15 years. My allergies included ,dairy, wheat, melon, apples as well as pollen, dust,feathers and dog fur. I had 3 sessions with Tanya working on these allergies the last one on 27th April 21. It's now been nearly 8 weeks and I haven't taken any antihistamines, I'm eating dairy, wheat and last weekend I had a cider with no reaction. I am so happy, I can highly recommend Tanya and work she does, it really changed my life. Thank you Tanya.

I've been working with Russ for the past 12 weeks and I can't thank him enough for everything his done for me!As someone who has struggled with anxiety and depression since I was 19 yo, and someone who has been struggling from binge eating disorder for a couple of years now, I've always been trying to find the "cure" or how to make it easier to deal with all these. In the past, I've gone with other therapists, but I've never had a good experience. It was all about "tell me how you feel", and get overwhelmed and question my own feelings. Don't get me wrong, talking about that helps, but getting into the root of the cause and why your mind and body are begging for your attention is what Russ focused on. He explains how your mind works, and your emotions, and how you can rewire old patterns, old habits... His methods and techniques allow you to get in touch with the cause, with your unconscious mind, with what's really going on within you.I can't thank Russ enough for everything he's done. I am seeing light at the end of the tunnel and it's all thanks to him. He's very personable and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend him to anyone who's struggling with their mental health ☺️

I came to New life Therapy due to having uncontrollable anxiety. It was causing huge distress and disruption to everyday life. I tried counselling before but it never really got to the route of the issues. Tanya immediately started to work in a way I wasn’t familiar with, tapping into my subconscious and focusing in on trauma memories, some of which were hidden away and forgotten about. Breaking down pattens of behaviour and helping me not just to accept and come to terms with my past but to also help me build new foundations, and usable tools to be a stronger, more secure, confident and healthier minded person. I honestly felt my brain being rewired. It was truly an enlightening experience.I waited 3 months since finishing my therapy to write the review as I wanted to make sure that the work Tanya did was not just a short term fix. It’s not!!! I can honestly say Tanya has helped me change my life for the better and I’m forever grateful.

Russ is an AMAZING therapist! I worked with Russ for 12 weeks starting in January 2021. Before coming to Russ, I was unfortunately going through an eating disorder that I couldn't handle alone. I was ready to look for help, and Russ did more than just help - he provided me with skills to remain happy for the rest of my life!One thing that was special about my experience with Russ was the type of therapy methods he used. In the past, I have gone to therapists, but I've never quite had this type of experience. Many therapists have patients talk about past traumas and that's it - talk, talk, talk. Most of the time, patients come out of the appointment more overwhelmed than when they came in! However, with Russ - this was an entirely new method! Russ used a type of hypnosis therapy that really allowed me to get in touch with my emotions! I was able to gain a different outlook on how I perceived myself, and I was able to change how I viewed previous traumatic experiences.I cannot thank Russ enough for everything he did. Russ was very personable and easy to talk to. He also was very educated and explained things in a manner that REALLY allowed you to understand your own emotions. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking to improve their life in ANY way!

Highly recommend Tanya as I been seeing her recently. My life has completely changed for the better in every single part. I had been depressed all my life and tried many ways to combat it and all to no avail. I went for a few sessions with Tanya and I was a new woman. Now I'm so happy and bubbly as I have always been and it's all thanks to this wonderful lady and her very professional work. I'm grateful and thankful for everything she has done for me. She is worth her weight in gold. I have finally found myself again and I'm no longer lost and feeling damaged. My life is just amazing every single day. If you are suffering depression and thinking of maybe trying therapy. Tanya is just phenomenal. I never ever thought I'd be able to live without depression as it was always coming and going, but now I can live life to the fullest and finally be happy everyday. Its very liberating and amazing to feel this happy again. Thankyou Tanya, Brenda Sheppard

I've been having sessions with Russ since January 2021, 12 weeks in total. I've been using our sessions to recover from an eating disorder which I've had for over 20 years. I don't really have enough words to explain how much of a different person I feel now. I was a total mess thanks to lockdown, I was binge eating DAILY and could not see any way to stop. I was totally out of control and never thought I'd get a handle on it because I couldn't figure out why I was constantly turning to food and doing things that made me so unhappy. We figured out the reasons why and the past traumas Ive experienced were to blame. Russ showed me how to put the darkness to bed once and for all and has helped me more than anyone or anything I had previously tried. I've not binged for a good 6 weeks now and I am actually stunned how I've totally stopped turning to food as the answer to everything. I don't even get triggered to turn to food anymore which is very liberating as I can now actually enjoy food again without the added feelings of shame and guilt. I think Russ is part therapist and part magician, I'm not sure how he does what he does BUT I can honestly say he has changed my life. He is a fantastic therapist, no nonsense, makes complete sense, he is relatable and real and I can 100% say that no matter what your issue Russ or anyone else at New Life Therapy will help you through and out the other side. I will be keeping his number on speed dial!!! ..... anyone reading this review I wish you all the best with your journey, the start is the hard part but I promise you it'll be the best thing you can do for yourself 🙂

Talking to Russell has been amazing! I was so nervous before our first call! But he made me feel so comfortable, calm and safe from the start! I have learned so much from Russell and how our brain works. I can highly recommend Russell, it’s been life changing to talk to him! I’m forever grateful for the opportunity I got to talk to him!! Thank you so much Russell!

After trying several different therapies I was running out of ideas... Then came Russ.I found new life when I was in search for a trauma specialist and that is just one or Russ' many gifts.Russ is down to earth and a gentle giant, I thought I may have been intimidated at first but the complete opposite was my experience, I felt heard, understood and accepted as I am.If you're in need of an exceptional listener, therapist and counseller I would highly recommend Russ I couldn't give my money quick enough!Thanks again Russ!

Tanya is brilliant, makes you feel at ease the moment you have that first conversation over the phone! Having struggled over the last couple of years with different issues and traumas. Tanya has been amazing, so down to earth and friendly too. I have tried a number of different therapies in the past but new life therapy is brilliant. Always makes me feel so much better after each session. Thank you so much Tanya you’ve helped me so much and taught me so much about that inner voice and to make sure I’m always looking at my thoughts in a positive mindset.Would highly recommended New Life Therapy 🙂

After many years of struggling with various different things that has happened in my life and trying out different therapists that did not work for me I finally found Russ and New Life Therapy. Their name 'New Life Therapy' helps you achieve just that - a new life - when I thought that was absolutely not achievable.What Russ has done for me is absolutely priceless and I owe him the world! Russ is so calming and so patient and listens with absolutely no judgement whatsoever which enabled me to be myself and discover the real me and love myself (I am 34) and I didn't think was possible. That person being an amazing human being which I didn't think I would ever say about myself!Each week we went over a new issue (an issue going back to my childhood or an issue that has happened over recent years - mainly trauma) until we got to the point where I had absolutely no issues which didn't take him long. On my last session I cried with tears of happiness and was devastated it was my last session with him!!If you are unsure of whether therapy is for you - trust me when I say - you will not regret it. Investing in myself and New Life Therapy has been the best investment I have ever made.The biggest thank you to Russ for helping me create the path for a new life for myself. I would recommend both Russ and Tanya to my nearest and dearest so do not hesitate in reaching out to them."When the desire to change outweighs the desire to stay the same, then we may begin."

After a traumatic couple of years I reached the point where I knew I needed to speak to somebody.I had never seen a therapist before and didn’t know what to expect. I was scared at being vulnerable.As soon as I spoke to Tanya on the phone I knew that she was someone I could open up to and she could help me.Each session helped me massively and I have now been able to move on from traumatic events and have tools to help me deal with my anxiety.Tanya is so down to earth, kind and easy to talk to; I could not recommend her enough.If I ever need therapy again I know I will be contacting Tanya straight away.Thank you Tanya for everything!

My thoughts and feelings before seeing Russ were a real struggle and getting worse for me. The main struggles in life was coping with my own insecurities, self confidence and self value.BUT after a few appointments with Russ, I do actually feel amazing and don’t think about the things that used to make me anxious and unhappy.I live to the ‘HERE & NOW’Thank you Russ - Kerry.

Tanya has really helped me over the past year to process some traumatic memories and break some negative behaviour cycles. The sessions I have had have helped calm my anxiety and made my day to day life easier thanks to some helpful techniques to reduce anxiety levels and negative thinking. Could not recommend her enough.

I have suffered with pain in my neck, shoulders and clavicle due to arthritis for the last three years, but the last eight months have been the worst. I was not able to sleep and was able to less and less physically each day. I booked in for a session with Tanya who immediately put me at my ease as she was so easy to talk to. She was able to get to the root cause of the pain I was in and incredibly I am now pain free! I am able to get a good nights sleep for the first time in months and feel I can now start living life again. I would recommend New Life Therapy to anyone who is suffering with every day pain caused by arthritis and other such ailments.

After suffering with hay fever for years and years and taking over the counter medication, which did nothing to relieve my symptoms. I went to see Russ, which greatly improved my symptoms which then cleared. I can highly recommend the therapy, great support and information that was given was invaluable. 100% recommended. Thanks Russ 👍🏻

I have suffered for a few years with sharp pain in my elbow which I tried to fix with massage and physio therapy. I was recommended through a friend to see Russel. Even though I was skeptical at first I met with him and I can honestly say I have not experienced any issues with my elbow in any way since. I would highly recommend as this has changed my life for someone who works a physical job everyday. Thankyou so much

My sessions with Tanya have been really successful, with some very painful experiences that I have been through I’m my life, that I no longer have the pain when I think about.It is such a natural way to re-write the pain in our bodies “that stay if not dealt with” and I believe is the reason why many of us get illnesses.You DO NOT go under hypnosis, you just relax and she talks you by changing the way your body feels when you think about the situation.It’s calm, relaxing and so simple..I could recommend this therapy for any issue, painful past situation (PTS) and so so many more.She had also helped my 15 year old in such a way, it’s given her her life’s worth back..She had anxiety, anorexia and 8 years of bullying, death of a close relative and also a very personal issue that’s all Been dealt with.Thank you from the bottom of my heart Tanya, thank goodness we found you.

Very pleased with the professional help that I received from Russ, a very positive guy who helped me through a very dark time, in an environment of trust, he guided me through what was needed to be done, to return me to a state of calm and self-control, following PTSD.Thank you Russ, great job !

I first went to Russ after experiencing multiple panic attacks and feeling lost within myself and life.At first thinking of phoning a therapist I felt embarrassed and nervous, was I being dramatic? Did I really need help? But as soon as I had the first session with Russ I knew it was the right decision. I instantly felt relaxed, the weight of the world lifted from my shoulders and I suddenly realised.. things were finally going to get better.Russ helped me understand myself and get over past situations that had left me scarred and anxious. In total I spent 4 sessions with Russ and the positive effect he’s had on my life, my business, my relationships with my friends and family and overall happiness has been incredible. I have since recommended Russ to my friend and family member who have also benefited massively.In summary, I can not recommend Russ enough. He has helped me overcome the hardest times of my life, given me a greater understanding of myself and that has given me the power to positively progress forward in all areas of my life. But most important he helped me become happy again. Genuinely the best investment I have ever made.

I reached out to Russ after having a rough months, dealing with a few deaths, a break up and other issues that took its toll on me mentally.I have never attended/ considered therapy before but straight away I connected with Russ and felt comfortable to talk.Through our sessions, I discovered that I was struggling with issues from years back which I brushed a side but were impacting my everyday life and how I dealt with things. I can now manage these emotions and instantly I felt relief!After only 4 sessions, I'm feeling back to my normal self and would urge everyone who is struggling to seek help via New Life Therapy.Thank you!

Tanya is amazing! I felt so comfortable opening up to her, she has made me feel so much lighter after finally letting go of traumatic memories built up over time.

Having had a fair few sessions with Russ I can safely say he has saved my life. Suffering with depression and PTSD was a hard few years but Russ has helped me turn my life around and I will never find the words to thank him enough. So welcoming and understanding and non judgemental to everything. Thank you Russ.

Would highly recommend New Life Therapy! Tanya is fantastic and not only great at helping identify deep root causes of things like anxiety but super in explaining every step in the process of resolving them! Thanks Tanya!

Tan helped me to deal with deep seated insecurity, trust issues and fear stemming from events many years ago. I still cannot believe what a profound effect her sessions have had on my life. I would recommend New Life Therapy to everyone (and I do!)

Can't rate Tanya highly enough. I've been suffering with pain in various parts of the body after being knocked off my motorcycle over 15 years ago. After my initial visit the continual pain in my shoulder has stopped. She has helped me process feeling & thoughts in a different way, which in turn helps me to relax and also reduces the remaining pain. You feel relaxed talking to her and you can talk about anything in absolute confidence. Wish I had found her years ago!!

I went to Russ after a very difficult time in my life which I buried and ignored until I couldn't ignore it any more. I was a shell of myself and suffered badly with depression, anxiety and low self esteem, after only 4 sessions I am feeling like my old self and excited to see what my new future brings. The change from seeing Russ has been incredible and I can not recommend him highly enough for all that he has done. The environment is comfortable and there is no rushing the session meaning the sessions ended naturally and I didnt walk away feeling only half a job was done. Thank you so much for everything!

I went to see Russ, after feeling like everything I have tried to get my lifestyle and mind healthier had failed. This was basically my last resort, he made me feel right at home from the moment I met him.Thank you so much for helping me get to the root of my issues and helping me learn how to deal with them, in a healthier way.I couldn't recommend him enough!

I've seen Russ a couple times now for physical pain and stress/anxiety. He is amazing, instantly made me feel comfortable and relaxed from day 1 considering I struggle talking to anyone about problems. Each time I've left feeling fresh minded, in control and happy with a healthy balance restored. His work is mind blowing, I can't reccomend him enough.Thank you for all your help and giving me clarity when things have seemed so clouded.

I was sent to Russ through my work for something I had battled alone for 20 years and had come to a head.Russ’ manner, approachability and down to earth attitude made it easy to talk to him.His techniques were nothing short of amazing and he has given me the strength and tools/mechanisms I need to maintain a mentally healthy life.In my opinion Russ is amazing. My unreserved thanks to him........ and in true Russ style ....... 👊

I had a session with Russ at new life therapy as I was pregnant and very anxious about giving birth. In the session he helped me to identify why I was anxious and helped me to relax about the thought of giving birth and empowered me making me much more positive about the experience. He gave me a visualisation technique I could use at home which I did and this helped me to relax when thinking about the birthing process. I had a really positive birthing experience and I really do believe this was thanks to my session with Russ. I would highly reccomend.

Where to start with this review... Russ has helped in more ways than one!He has helped me give up smoking after just one session!He has helped me get through a very difficult time in my life. After 8 weeks of seeing Russ I had gone from being in my lowest mindset to becoming a happy, strong and content individual.Russ has helped me on my journey become more spiritual and understand what really matters in life. I have not only got through a difficult time in my life, but I have become a better happier person. 🙏🏻Russ is very professional and friendly. At no point did I feel uncomfortable with Russ, he is easy to talk to and very understanding. He has a professional space for sessions and many different techniques to help you overcome various issues.I would highly recommend Russ, and cannot thank him enough for all his support and advice!

I was lucky enough to be put in touch with Tanya at a time when I felt like I just couldn’t cope anymore. In just 6 short sessions she helped me to change my outlook on situations life had put me through. My healing started almost immediately, and I have been left feeling stronger and more able to cope, than ever before. I would recommend Tanya in a heartbeat to anyone. She has helped me and my family. Thank you Tanya

I cannot thank this man enough! I have experienced several extremely difficult circumstances that left me in a bad way. I thought I could deal with these myself and didn't believe anyone could help. However I was so wrong. I will be forever grateful for the help support and advice I received and cannot recommend this man enough

I was was anxious about my first session as it was something I had never done before. After my first session, it was something I knew straight away was going to help. To be in an environment feeling welcomed, relaxed and completely comfortable was for me personally just as important ! Russ calming nature and knowledge really opened my eyes about things I just didn't understand, he helped me understand these things I never thought I could, for that I am so grateful. I was in a severe rut and suffered with a lot of things. To finally understand this and now live every day with a natural happiness is because of this Gentleman. I would highly recommend New Life Therapy to anyone.

Russ is a great guy! I was tentative about my appointment but he is so easy to talk to it’s like you’ve known him for years! Suffered with CFS and working with a specialist but even with all the progress I made I could never will myself to get up in the mornings. After seeing Russ I am back waking up at normal hours and while it’s not a miracle cure, you need to put the work in still to maintain, having my mornings back and not having the constant brain fog has contributed innumerably to the progression I am making with my graded exercise.Thanks so much again you legend.

Well what can I sayI have been a sufferer of a latex allergy all my lifeTo the extent that if there has been a balloon in the room I would react and blister and itch like madCouldn’t wear rubber gloves even eye lash extensions would react with my eyes as the glue has a latex base to it.Any way today I went and met Russel after a recommendation from a friend who had been cured of her allergy to birdsSceptical I told Russel about my reaction to latex and said to him it would change my life if he could do something, after an hours session I put on a pair of latex gloves no reaction at all , I rubbed all the latex around my face NOTHINGI’m so happy I can’t explain I posted my results on face book and my sister saidLee it’s a miricle and that it isI can’t thank you enough Russel for giving me my life back it’s always been such a bug bare and I can now enjoy my life where there are balloons and the kids are playing xPlease please if u have anything that u wish to change please don’t hesitate u really won’t regret itLee dunne

To all of you reading this post, don't hesitate to get in touch with these guys.Russ helped me on 2 occasions.Firstly how many smokers out there want to quit? I thought I would always smoke. After just 1 session somehow I just felt I didn't smoke anymore. Its nearly a year on now and although I still fancy a cig, I just feel that It it gave me the help I needed to quit and stay that way.Secondly how many of you suffer from joint pain etc? I had a very sore should for a year or so before I chatted to Russ. The pain reduced by at least 70% after the session. What an instant result! Its now 6 months on and coping with my shoulder pain fine now. Its not completely gone but thats my own fault, we all gotta work.Russ and Tanya are probably the easiest people I know to feel comfortable around. So I recommend to anyone who needs help, get in touch. Im sure you will be relieved that you did!

My fourteen year old son has suffered with chronic fatigue for sixteen months. He managed to drag himself to school for a couple of lessons a week on a good week, which would completely wipe him out for days after. His illness was devastating for the whole family as we witnessed the life being sucked out of him with no apparent end in sight. Two weeks ago we approached Russ who has completely transformed my son's life. The day after his first Skype appointment my son jumped out of bed, was eager to return to school and we saw a glint in his eye that we hadn't seen for the past sixteen months. He has seen Russ three times and is now going to school for four out of six lessons daily and not crashing as he used to. I expect he will return to full time school over the next week or two. He has his social life back, a bright future ahead of him and we have our gorgeous son back. We can't thank Russ enough for his expertise and compassion and would highly recommend his services.

Tanya is a very caring and knowledgeable counsellor , nothing is rushed and she has a calming influence. I started to see Tanya at a very dark despairing time in my life, I felt immediately comfortable with her and able to speak open and honestly, something I have never done before. I would highly recommend Tanya and would definitely return in the future if the need ever arises. .....Thank you Tanya.

I cannot say enough good things about Tanya. I have asked her for help when I was waiting for an operation. She helped me to deal with stress and fear I felt at that time. Tanya is a warm, compassionate and caring listener. She has so much knowledge and understanding to share with each of her patients. I highly recommend 'New Life Therapy' to everyone!

Having had a sudden death in the family, I was having difficulty processing what had happened when Russel from “New Life Therapy” was recommended to me.I found Russel to be caring and professional every step of the way. His approach to counselling wasn’t to just get me talking, he allowed me to do that and grieve. However, the next step was new to me, Russel then went on to give me the skills to move forward, which ultimately was the therapy I needed.I can not recommend Russel and Tanya highly enough.

I was referred to New life therapy by a Ptsd charity where I met Russ. After just one appointment with him it started to turn my life around. I was given the tools and understanding to feel better about myself and what had happened in my life. If it wasn't for his guidance I doubt my own existence. I would recommend anyone and everyone to New life therapy that needs any assistance with depression, ptsd or any mental health issues. Thank you new life therapy

Tanya has been a great help to me in dealing with past traumas and insecurities. After only a few sessions I feel back on the right path for a better future. I wish I had made the call sooner!

Felt immediatly comfortable and actually listened to. Tanya helped me a great deal and already felt as if I could start making progress or shifting over herdles with the advice that was given. Other therapists had often forced their own perceptions of me and my lifestyle onto me but I immediatly felt so much more free and comfortable.I cannot reccomend enough.

Tanya was amazing and extremely welcoming. I have had therapy before that made me feel worse walking out of there and made me feel like my emotions were not valid. Tanya has given me a chance to improve my life at such a young age and i couldn't be more thankful. I was sceptical about starting therapy again because of previous experiences but i can genuinely say i enjoyed going to tanya because it meant i was a step forward to being happier in myself. Thank you so much for everything Tanya, I couldn't recommend you enough x

I think she might have a magic wand 🪄 if you're not sure about counselling then look no further as Tanya made me feel relaxed and safe straight away talking about all sorts of things. Tanya I can't thank you enough you've changed the way I feel & think, which has had a positive effect in my personal and worklife ❤️If I need you again, I will definitely be back!!xx

I was very sceptical about doing therapy again but, after the positive outcome a family member had I gave it a go. I wouldn't be where I am today without Tanya, she has completely changed my life, my thought process and just the way I see the world. I would highly recommend Tanya, she's a wonderful lady with vast amounts of knowledge in her field.

I was referred to Tanya by my workplace. After battling abuse, anxiety, depression and a suicide attempt I finally felt at a place to receive some therapy.Tanya made me feel so welcome and I never felt judged for anything I said. She gave me effective tools and guidance to move forward and helped he heal from some of my past traumas. I felt validated and listened to at all times. Also, as a trainee counsellor, Tanya really confirmed for me that this is exactly the job I’m meant to be doing.Thank you again Tanya.

Russ is the best of the best therapists out there. Over the past two decades I worked with many therapists to get through my personal life problems.Russ is the first and the only therapist who encouraged to dig deeper to understand the root cause behind all the recurring problems over the years. Doing so has been and is being life changing.Russ is very generous with his time and never ever rushed the process. He is exceptionally kind and has a very compassionate voice.I set out to write the best review I possibly can to thank Russ for helping me in the change I desperately wanted to see all my adult life, but reading all the existing amazing reviews, all I could add is that I 100% agree with all of them. I’m so so glad I trusted the reviews and contacted Russ. I’m already in such a better place, making the right choices for myself.If you are looking to speak to someone, don’t hesitate to approach Russ.Thank you is such a small word, but thank you Russ for all your help, patience and your valuable guidance.

We have been so happy with the help Tanya has provided our daughter and family.Tanya has always listened to our concerns and gently touched upon areas difficult to discuss. Our daughter has suffered from anxiety and a phobia. Tanya has worked with her to put together coping mechanisms for the future.It’s been refreshing to see Tanya, as she never made any big promises, but has certainly helped with our situation.I would recommend Tanya to anyone who is struggling and needs some guidance in a safe environment.

Well, what can I write that could possibly put into words what this person has done for me. Russ has literally changed my life. He is kind, gentle and powerfully insightful. He is what I call an Earth Angel, an Angel walking the earth. If you are reading this and wondering who to choose as your therapist, I could not recommend this place enough. If you would like your life back, then Russ really can help you, I promise you that. I cannot say thank you enough for everything you have done for me Russ, the words are too small, but THANK YOU!

Tanya has guided me through a very challenging part of my life. Her expertise, experience and incredible knowledge coupled with her kind and compassionate nature made me feel at ease immediately.

After our sessions I feel transformed and ready to deal whatever life will throw at me next!

After having a rough go the past year and a half with a tremendous amount of anxiety which led to disordered eating habits, finding Russ through social media was a godsend. I had spent the past year trying to find a therapist which I felt confident could help me back to my happy and bubbly sense. After stumbling upon New Life Therapy and reading the reviews, I found Russ. And from our first meeting, I just knew that this was the therapist I was waiting on to help me.Russ was truly incredible. Kind, patient and guiding. Being no stranger to going to therapy before, I found that Russ's methods was so much more valuable than anything I've ever done before. After multiple sessions, I can honestly say that my anxiety has decreased tenfold, if not even disappeared. I am truly in tune with my emotions, allowing myself to feel them and being able to work through them in a rational way rather than beating myself up over them and then relying on destructive habits to get me through them. I never thought that after the past two years, that I would be this happy and calm again. This is the best I have ever felt, and despite working through old traumas, I am so glad that I did because it led me to finally feel happy again. The only thing I regret is not finding Russ sooner.I couldn't recommend Russ nor New Life Therapy enough. It truly is life changing!!!

I was recommended to Russ by a family member and I can honestly say I am forever grateful. I met Russ when I was at my lowest, unable to cope and in a constant state of panic. From the very first session, Russ made me feel very comfortable and helped me let go of some of the issues I had been holding on to. Within just 4 sessions, I now feel like I have my life back!!! I continue to practice all the tools that Russ taught me and I have built this into my every day routine. I am now able to cope with stressful events and anxiety and enjoy life. Thank you so much Russ, I literally cannot express my gratitude enough.

Incredible, i have taken part in CBT therapy before but didn't get to the root cause unlike the 4 sessions i had with Russ. He was so reassuring, so knowledgeable and each session i learnt a huge amount about why my brain was reacting the way it was and techniques on how to deal with triggers. Highly highly recommend and will pass his details onto my clients. Can't thank you enough

I would encourage any person to schedule a session with Russ. He approaches therapy with such kindness and understanding. I always look forward to the next session as I know that Russ will teach me something new and help shift my perspective. He has really taught me the importance of forgiveness and staying in the present. He is truly such a brilliant person.

I had the utmost pleasure to work with Russ for the past 12 weeks. I have been struggling with an eating disorder, anxiety and depression for the past 11 years of my life as a consequence of various traumas. I have worked with many therapist before Russ and I had never experienced such relief and clarity as I did after my first session with Russ. He has such a kind/warm heart and way of connecting with you from the very start which makes you feel psychologically safe and ready to tackle all your demons. Russ helped me understand and identify most of the deep rooted issues which caused me to feel and act in detrimental ways. I cannot thank Russ enough for helping me get out of such a dark place in only 6 sessions as well as discover my true authentic self. He has taught me several techniques and provided me some tools, which I can use everyday and lean back on during the tougher days. I would recommend Russ to anyone who is currently struggling and cannot see a way out - you would not regret it one second 🙂 Thank you SO much Russ, from the bottom of my heart!

I have been to a couple of therapists before and have never felt the connection like I did with Russell. He has a way of connecting and actually getting to the root causes of the issues you are dealing with. I have struggled with binge eating disorder and he has helped me so much. It is hard for me to open up and with him I was able to openly express my emotions and felt so comfortable doing so. He makes you feel welcome and no judgement. I have gone to other therapists where they made you feel judged. I would recommend Russell to anyone in need of help. He honestly helped me and I am so grateful for our sessions because I feel like a much better person. He has taught me several techniques that I can use everyday to help me. Thank you Russ!

Russ from new life therapy has helped to transform my way of thinking and how I go about my daily life. Having never had therapy before I met with Russ to discuss an eating disorder I have been suffering with for many years. Russ not only helped me with this and to identify the deep rooted issues I have he also helped me to overcome many challenges I was struggling with. Such a knowledgeable man who gives off such warmth and is instantly likeable. Cannot thank new life therapy for all their help and guidance. I would recommend you to everyone!

Russ was very welcoming, encouraging, empathetic and supportive throughout. He was able to quickly identify what I was struggling with.He has helped me get to the root of my anxieties and guided me in changing my thinking so that I can live more peacefully. I always felt that I could be myself and say what I need to without judgement.Russ has honestly had such a positive impact on my life and we have worked together to rid my life from some of my rules & rituals of ocd, we've worked on my self esteem & why I care what other people think so much, we've also tackled my day to day anxiety. I'm in a far better place in my life since getting help from Russ, I cannot recommend him enough. It's so liberating to be freed from certain ocd & anxiety rituals and I honestly couldn't have done this without the help from Russ. He really has made my life more liveable.

I have suffered with multiple allergies for at least 15 years, I have had to take a nasal spray twice a day and antihistamines every day throughout those 15 years. My allergies included ,dairy, wheat, melon, apples as well as pollen, dust,feathers and dog fur. I had 3 sessions with Tanya working on these allergies the last one on 27th April 21. It's now been nearly 8 weeks and I haven't taken any antihistamines, I'm eating dairy, wheat and last weekend I had a cider with no reaction. I am so happy, I can highly recommend Tanya and work she does, it really changed my life. Thank you Tanya.

I've been working with Russ for the past 12 weeks and I can't thank him enough for everything his done for me!As someone who has struggled with anxiety and depression since I was 19 yo, and someone who has been struggling from binge eating disorder for a couple of years now, I've always been trying to find the "cure" or how to make it easier to deal with all these. In the past, I've gone with other therapists, but I've never had a good experience. It was all about "tell me how you feel", and get overwhelmed and question my own feelings. Don't get me wrong, talking about that helps, but getting into the root of the cause and why your mind and body are begging for your attention is what Russ focused on. He explains how your mind works, and your emotions, and how you can rewire old patterns, old habits... His methods and techniques allow you to get in touch with the cause, with your unconscious mind, with what's really going on within you.I can't thank Russ enough for everything he's done. I am seeing light at the end of the tunnel and it's all thanks to him. He's very personable and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend him to anyone who's struggling with their mental health ☺️

I came to New life Therapy due to having uncontrollable anxiety. It was causing huge distress and disruption to everyday life. I tried counselling before but it never really got to the route of the issues. Tanya immediately started to work in a way I wasn’t familiar with, tapping into my subconscious and focusing in on trauma memories, some of which were hidden away and forgotten about. Breaking down pattens of behaviour and helping me not just to accept and come to terms with my past but to also help me build new foundations, and usable tools to be a stronger, more secure, confident and healthier minded person. I honestly felt my brain being rewired. It was truly an enlightening experience.I waited 3 months since finishing my therapy to write the review as I wanted to make sure that the work Tanya did was not just a short term fix. It’s not!!! I can honestly say Tanya has helped me change my life for the better and I’m forever grateful.

Russ is an AMAZING therapist! I worked with Russ for 12 weeks starting in January 2021. Before coming to Russ, I was unfortunately going through an eating disorder that I couldn't handle alone. I was ready to look for help, and Russ did more than just help - he provided me with skills to remain happy for the rest of my life!One thing that was special about my experience with Russ was the type of therapy methods he used. In the past, I have gone to therapists, but I've never quite had this type of experience. Many therapists have patients talk about past traumas and that's it - talk, talk, talk. Most of the time, patients come out of the appointment more overwhelmed than when they came in! However, with Russ - this was an entirely new method! Russ used a type of hypnosis therapy that really allowed me to get in touch with my emotions! I was able to gain a different outlook on how I perceived myself, and I was able to change how I viewed previous traumatic experiences.I cannot thank Russ enough for everything he did. Russ was very personable and easy to talk to. He also was very educated and explained things in a manner that REALLY allowed you to understand your own emotions.

Highly recommend Tanya as I been seeing her recently. My life has completely changed for the better in every single part. I had been depressed all my life and tried many ways to combat it and all to no avail. I went for a few sessions with Tanya and I was a new woman. Now I'm so happy and bubbly as I have always been and it's all thanks to this wonderful lady and her very professional work. I'm grateful and thankful for everything she has done for me. She is worth her weight in gold. I have finally found myself again and I'm no longer lost and feeling damaged. My life is just amazing every single day. If you are suffering depression and thinking of maybe trying therapy. Tanya is just phenomenal. I never ever thought I'd be able to live without depression as it was always coming and going, but now I can live life to the fullest and finally be happy everyday. Its very liberating and amazing to feel this happy again. Thankyou Tanya, Brenda Sheppard

I've been having sessions with Russ since January 2021, 12 weeks in total. I've been using our sessions to recover from an eating disorder which I've had for over 20 years. I don't really have enough words to explain how much of a different person I feel now. I was a total mess thanks to lockdown, I was binge eating DAILY and could not see any way to stop. I was totally out of control and never thought I'd get a handle on it because I couldn't figure out why I was constantly turning to food and doing things that made me so unhappy. We figured out the reasons why and the past traumas Ive experienced were to blame. Russ showed me how to put the darkness to bed once and for all and has helped me more than anyone or anything I had previously tried. I've not binged for a good 6 weeks now and I am actually stunned how I've totally stopped turning to food as the answer to everything. I don't even get triggered to turn to food anymore which is very liberating as I can now actually enjoy food again without the added feelings of shame and guilt. I think Russ is part therapist and part magician, I'm not sure how he does what he does BUT I can honestly say he has changed my life. He is a fantastic therapist, no nonsense, makes complete sense, he is relatable and real and I can 100% say that no matter what your issue Russ or anyone else at New Life Therapy will help you through and out the other side. I will be keeping his number on speed dial!!! ..... anyone reading this review I wish you all the best with your journey, the start is the hard part but I promise you it'll be the best thing you can do for yourself 🙂

Talking to Russell has been amazing! I was so nervous before our first call! But he made me feel so comfortable, calm and safe from the start! I have learned so much from Russell and how our brain works. I can highly recommend Russell, it’s been life changing to talk to him! I’m forever grateful for the opportunity I got to talk to him!! Thank you so much Russell!

Absoultly amazing therapist , Russ has helped me recover from binge eating disorder which I have had for many years. I couldn't recommend Russ more highly. I didn't think I would be binge free but I can honestly say I am. Thank you Russ.

After trying several different therapies I was running out of ideas... Then came Russ.I found new life when I was in search for a trauma specialist and that is just one or Russ' many gifts.Russ is down to earth and a gentle giant, I thought I may have been intimidated at first but the complete opposite was my experience, I felt heard, understood and accepted as I am.If you're in need of an exceptional listener, therapist and counseller I would highly recommend Russ I couldn't give my money quick enough!Thanks again Russ!

Tanya is brilliant, makes you feel at ease the moment you have that first conversation over the phone! Having struggled over the last couple of years with different issues and traumas. Tanya has been amazing, so down to earth and friendly too. I have tried a number of different therapies in the past but new life therapy is brilliant. Always makes me feel so much better after each session. Thank you so much Tanya you’ve helped me so much and taught me so much about that inner voice and to make sure I’m always looking at my thoughts in a positive mindset.Would highly recommended New Life Therapy 🙂

After many years of struggling with various different things that has happened in my life and trying out different therapists that did not work for me I finally found Russ and New Life Therapy. Their name 'New Life Therapy' helps you achieve just that - a new life - when I thought that was absolutely not achievable.What Russ has done for me is absolutely priceless and I owe him the world! Russ is so calming and so patient and listens with absolutely no judgement whatsoever which enabled me to be myself and discover the real me and love myself (I am 34) and I didn't think was possible. That person being an amazing human being which I didn't think I would ever say about myself!Each week we went over a new issue (an issue going back to my childhood or an issue that has happened over recent years - mainly trauma) until we got to the point where I had absolutely no issues which didn't take him long. On my last session I cried with tears of happiness and was devastated it was my last session with him!!If you are unsure of whether therapy is for you - trust me when I say - you will not regret it. Investing in myself and New Life Therapy has been the best investment I have ever made.The biggest thank you to Russ for helping me create the path for a new life for myself. I would recommend both Russ and Tanya to my nearest and dearest so do not hesitate in reaching out to them."When the desire to change outweighs the desire to stay the same, then we may begin." Russ Mckenzie.

After a traumatic couple of years I reached the point where I knew I needed to speak to somebody.I had never seen a therapist before and didn’t know what to expect. I was scared at being vulnerable.As soon as I spoke to Tanya on the phone I knew that she was someone I could open up to and she could help me.Each session helped me massively and I have now been able to move on from traumatic events and have tools to help me deal with my anxiety.Tanya is so down to earth, kind and easy to talk to; I could not recommend her enough.If I ever need therapy again I know I will be contacting Tanya straight away.Thank you Tanya for everything!

My thoughts and feelings before seeing Russ were a real struggle and getting worse for me. The main struggles in life was coping with my own insecurities, self confidence and self value.BUT after a few appointments with Russ, I do actually feel amazing and don’t think about the things that used to make me anxious and unhappy.I live to the ‘HERE & NOW’Thank you Russ - Kerry.

Tanya has really helped me over the past year to process some traumatic memories and break some negative behaviour cycles. The sessions I have had have helped calm my anxiety and made my day to day life easier thanks to some helpful techniques to reduce anxiety levels and negative thinking. Could not recommend her enough.

I have suffered with pain in my neck, shoulders and clavicle due to arthritis for the last three years, but the last eight months have been the worst. I was not able to sleep and was able to less and less physically each day. I booked in for a session with Tanya who immediately put me at my ease as she was so easy to talk to. She was able to get to the root cause of the pain I was in and incredibly I am now pain free! I am able to get a good nights sleep for the first time in months and feel I can now start living life again. I would recommend New Life Therapy to anyone who is suffering with every day pain caused by arthritis and other such ailments.

After suffering with hay fever for years and years and taking over the counter medication, which did nothing to relieve my symptoms. I went to see Russ, which greatly improved my symptoms which then cleared. I can highly recommend the therapy, great support and information that was given was invaluable. 100% recommended. Thanks Russ 👍🏻

I have suffered for a few years with sharp pain in my elbow which I tried to fix with massage and physio therapy. I was recommended through a friend to see Russel. Even though I was skeptical at first I met with him and I can honestly say I have not experienced any issues with my elbow in any way since. I would highly recommend as this has changed my life for someone who works a physical job everyday. Thankyou so much

My sessions with Tanya have been really successful, with some very painful experiences that I have been through I’m my life, that I no longer have the pain when I think about.It is such a natural way to re-write the pain in our bodies “that stay if not dealt with” and I believe is the reason why many of us get illnesses.You DO NOT go under hypnosis, you just relax and she talks you by changing the way your body feels when you think about the situation.It’s calm, relaxing and so simple..I could recommend this therapy for any issue, painful past situation (PTS) and so so many more.She had also helped my 15 year old in such a way, it’s given her her life’s worth back..She had anxiety, anorexia and 8 years of bullying, death of a close relative and also a very personal issue that’s all Been dealt with.Thank you from the bottom of my heart Tanya, thank goodness we found you.

Very pleased with the professional help that I received from Russ, a very positive guy who helped me through a very dark time, in an environment of trust, he guided me through what was needed to be done, to return me to a state of calm and self-control, following PTSD.Thank you Russ, great job !

I first went to Russ after experiencing multiple panic attacks and feeling lost within myself and life.At first thinking of phoning a therapist I felt embarrassed and nervous, was I being dramatic? Did I really need help? But as soon as I had the first session with Russ I knew it was the right decision. I instantly felt relaxed, the weight of the world lifted from my shoulders and I suddenly realised.. things were finally going to get better.Russ helped me understand myself and get over past situations that had left me scarred and anxious. In total I spent 4 sessions with Russ and the positive effect he’s had on my life, my business, my relationships with my friends and family and overall happiness has been incredible. I have since recommended Russ to my friend and family member who have also benefited massively.In summary, I can not recommend Russ enough. He has helped me overcome the hardest times of my life, given me a greater understanding of myself and that has given me the power to positively progress forward in all areas of my life. But most important he helped me become happy again. Genuinely the best investment I have ever made.

I reached out to Russ after having a rough months, dealing with a few deaths, a break up and other issues that took its toll on me mentally.I have never attended/ considered therapy before but straight away I connected with Russ and felt comfortable to talk.Through our sessions, I discovered that I was struggling with issues from years back which I brushed a side but were impacting my everyday life and how I dealt with things. I can now manage these emotions and instantly I felt relief!After only 4 sessions, I'm feeling back to my normal self and would urge everyone who is struggling to seek help via New Life Therapy.Thank you!

Tanya is amazing! I felt so comfortable opening up to her, she has made me feel so much lighter after finally letting go of traumatic memories built up over time.

I honestly can't thank Tanya enough! I have to admit I was slightly sceptical that this kind of thing would work for me, but I am absolutely blown away at how much this has helped me. I am a better person, wife and mother because of it. I thank my lucky stars I found Tanya and so grateful for everything she has done for me and my family x

Having had a fair few sessions with Russ I can safely say he has saved my life.

So welcoming and understanding and non judgemental to everything. Thank you Russ.

Can't rate Tanya highly enough. I've been suffering with pain in various parts of the body after being knocked off my motorcycle over 15 years ago. After my initial visit the continual pain in my shoulder has stopped. She has helped me process feeling & thoughts in a different way, which in turn helps me to relax and also reduces the remaining pain. You feel relaxed talking to her and you can talk about anything in absolute confidence. Wish I had found her years ago!!

I went to Russ after a very difficult time in my life which I buried and ignored until I couldn't ignore it any more. I was a shell of myself and suffered badly with depression, anxiety and low self esteem, after only 4 sessions I am feeling like my old self and excited to see what my new future brings. The change from seeing Russ has been incredible and I can not recommend him highly enough for all that he has done. The environment is comfortable and there is no rushing the session meaning the sessions ended naturally and I didnt walk away feeling only half a job was done. Thank you so much for everything!

I went to see Russ, after feeling like everything I have tried to get my lifestyle and mind healthier had failed.

I've seen Russ a couple times now for physical pain and stress/anxiety. He is amazing, instantly made me feel comfortable and relaxed from day 1 considering I struggle talking to anyone about problems. Each time I've left feeling fresh minded, in control and happy with a healthy balance restored. His work is mind blowing, I can't reccomend him enough.Thank you for all your help and giving me clarity when things have seemed so clouded.

I was sent to Russ through my work for something I had battled alone for 20 years and had come to a head.Russ’ manner, approachability and down to earth attitude made it easy to talk to him.His techniques were nothing short of amazing and he has given me the strength and tools/mechanisms I need to maintain a mentally healthy life.In my opinion Russ is amazing. My unreserved thanks to him........ and in true Russ style ....... 👊

I had a session with Russ at new life therapy as I was pregnant and very anxious about giving birth. In the session he helped me to identify why I was anxious and helped me to relax about the thought of giving birth and empowered me making me much more positive about the experience. He gave me a visualisation technique I could use at home which I did and this helped me to relax when thinking about the birthing process. I had a really positive birthing experience and I really do believe this was thanks to my session with Russ. I would highly reccomend.

Where to start with this review... Russ has helped in more ways than one!He has helped me give up smoking after just one session!He has helped me get through a very difficult time in my life. After 8 weeks of seeing Russ I had gone from being in my lowest mindset to becoming a happy, strong and content individual.Russ has helped me on my journey become more spiritual and understand what really matters in life. I have not only got through a difficult time in my life, but I have become a better happier person. 🙏🏻Russ is very professional and friendly. At no point did I feel uncomfortable with Russ, he is easy to talk to and very understanding. He has a professional space for sessions and many different techniques to help you overcome various issues.I would highly recommend Russ, and cannot thank him enough for all his support and advice!

I was lucky enough to be put in touch with Tanya at a time when I felt like I just couldn’t cope anymore. In just 6 short sessions she helped me to change my outlook on situations life had put me through. My healing started almost immediately, and I have been left feeling stronger and more able to cope, than ever before. I would recommend Tanya in a heartbeat to anyone. She has helped me and my family. Thank you Tanya

I cannot thank this man enough! I have experienced several extremely difficult circumstances that left me in a bad way. I thought I could deal with these myself and didn't believe anyone could help.

I was was anxious about my first session as it was something I had never done before. After my first session, it was something I knew straight away was going to help. To be in an environment feeling welcomed, relaxed and completely comfortable was for me personally just as important ! Russ calming nature and knowledge really opened my eyes about things I just didn't understand, he helped me understand these things I never thought I could, for that I am so grateful. I was in a severe rut and suffered with a lot of things. To finally understand this and now live every day with a natural happiness is because of this Gentleman. I would highly recommend New Life Therapy to anyone.

Russ is a great guy! I was tentative about my appointment but he is so easy to talk to it’s like you’ve known him for years! Suffered with CFS and working with a specialist but even with all the progress I made I could never will myself to get up in the mornings. After seeing Russ I am back waking up at normal hours and while it’s not a miracle cure, you need to put the work in still to maintain, having my mornings back and not having the constant brain fog has contributed innumerably to the progression I am making with my graded exercise.Thanks so much again you legend.

Well what can I sayI have been a sufferer of a latex allergy all my lifeTo the extent that if there has been a balloon in the room I would react and blister and itch like madCouldn’t wear rubber gloves even eye lash extensions would react with my eyes as the glue has a latex base to it.Any way today I went and met Russel after a recommendation from a friend who had been cured of her allergy to birdsSceptical I told Russel about my reaction to latex and said to him it would change my life if he could do something, after an hours session I put on a pair of latex gloves no reaction at all , I rubbed all the latex around my face NOTHINGI’m so happy I can’t explain I posted my results on face book and my sister saidLee it’s a miricle and that it isI can’t thank you enough Russel for giving me my life back it’s always been such a bug bare and I can now enjoy my life where there are balloons and the kids are playing xPlease please if u have anything that u wish to change please don’t hesitate u really won’t regret itLee dunne

To all of you reading this post, don't hesitate to get in touch with these guys.Russ helped me on 2 occasions.Firstly how many smokers out there want to quit? I thought I would always smoke. After just 1 session somehow I just felt I didn't smoke anymore. Its nearly a year on now and although I still fancy a cig, I just feel that It it gave me the help I needed to quit and stay that way.Secondly how many of you suffer from joint pain etc? I had a very sore should for a year or so before I chatted to Russ. The pain reduced by at least 70% after the session. What an instant result! Its now 6 months on and coping with my shoulder pain fine now. Its not completely gone but thats my own fault, we all gotta work.Russ and Tanya are probably the easiest people I know to feel comfortable around. So I recommend to anyone who needs help, get in touch. Im sure you will be relieved that you did!

My fourteen year old son has suffered with chronic fatigue for sixteen months. He managed to drag himself to school for a couple of lessons a week on a good week, which would completely wipe him out for days after. His illness was devastating for the whole family as we witnessed the life being sucked out of him with no apparent end in sight. Two weeks ago we approached Russ who has completely transformed my son's life. The day after his first Skype appointment my son jumped out of bed, was eager to return to school and we saw a glint in his eye that we hadn't seen for the past sixteen months. He has seen Russ three times and is now going to school for four out of six lessons daily and not crashing as he used to. I expect he will return to full time school over the next week or two. He has his social life back, a bright future ahead of him and we have our gorgeous son back. We can't thank Russ enough for his expertise and compassion and would highly recommend his services.

Tanya is a very caring and knowledgeable counsellor , nothing is rushed and she has a calming influence. I started to see Tanya at a very dark despairing time in my life, I felt immediately comfortable with her and able to speak open and honestly, something I have never done before. I would highly recommend Tanya and would definitely return in the future if the need ever arises. .....Thank you Tanya.

I cannot say enough good things about Tanya. I have asked her for help when I was waiting for an operation. She helped me to deal with stress and fear I felt at that time. Tanya is a warm, compassionate and caring listener. She has so much knowledge and understanding to share with each of her patients. I highly recommend 'New Life Therapy' to everyone!

Having had a sudden death in the family, I was having difficulty processing what had happened when Russel from “New Life Therapy” was recommended to me.I found Russel to be caring and professional every step of the way. His approach to counselling wasn’t to just get me talking, he allowed me to do that and grieve. However, the next step was new to me, Russel then went on to give me the skills to move forward, which ultimately was the therapy I needed.I can not recommend Russel and Tanya highly enough.

I really thought that my fear of the dark was something that id just have to accept until I found New Life Therapy.

I was referred to New life therapy by a Ptsd charity where I met Russ. After just one appointment with him it started to turn my life around. I was given the tools and understanding to feel better about myself and what had happened in my life. If it wasn't for his guidance I doubt my own existence. I would recommend anyone and everyone to New life therapy that needs any assistance with depression, ptsd or any mental health issues. Thank you new life therapy
