Sessions are designed around your energy levels and symptoms and at first are generally weekly then after session 3 move to every two weeks.

We will discuss your individual needs with you at the first session.

It takes on average 8 to 12 sessions. It can be less, occasionally more. This will be discussed with you in the early stages of your work with your practitioner.

Yes it can. We have a lot of experience of working with people who are bed bound. Some of the practitioners themselves were bed bound for many years. We appreciate how debilitated you are and work gently with you to help you find your way back to health, always at your pace.

We do not do brain retraining exercises. This is somatic work at a very deep level.

We teach you how to take action to create new nerve pathways in the brain that reduce symptoms and enable your body to return to health through a process of neuroplasticity.

Yes. The brain creates neural pathways in response to your life situations. If any of these no longer meet your needs, we teach you how to take action in your life to form new neural pathways that support health and wellbeing.

The foundation of The MBR began with my work with Dr Mickel, for which I am forever thankful and without which I would not have recovered or begun to do this work.

I went on to expand my studies and trained in Dr Gabor Maté's Compassionate Inquiry, also complementary therapies and many workshops down the years.

The MindBody Reconnect encompasses all I have learned in my quest to understand MindBody illness going back to my diagnosis in 1988, and particularly what I have learned from the people I have worked with who have recovered using this knowledge.

Session rates generally range from £90 to £120 per session.

As our practitioners are based around the world, rates vary depending on location, currency and local costs of living.

If cost is an issue for you, please let us know. Some practitioners may be able to offer flexibility around payment, and practitioners in training, who are fully supported by senior practitioners, may offer lower rates.

You work one-to-one with a practitioner to explore your experiences, symptoms and the mind-body connection. Your practitioner explains the MBR approach and helps you consider practical changes in your everyday life, at a pace that takes your energy levels into account.

Online sessions are available across the team, and some practitioners also offer in-person appointments. Check your chosen practitioner's profile or contact them to confirm their session formats, location and availability.

Yes. As part of their training, all MBR coaches are required to use the tools and approach in their own lives, giving them first-hand experience to draw upon when supporting others.
