Georgie Manners
Transpersonal Integrative Psychotherapist and EMDR Therapist in Dorset
I offer several ways of working depending on your goals and preferences.
Transpersonal Integrative Psychotherapy
My therapy is about the relationship: the safety and quality of the bond between us. From there, we explore not only your experiences, but the deeper essence of self beneath them. We may use guided imagination and visualisation alongside somatic awareness. I always offer my highest state of being, in deep presence and embodied soul consciousness. From there, one's own innate healing system can choose to awaken in the higher resonance we create together.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)
I am a qualified EMDR practitioner, trained with the EMDR Academy, UK and Europe. EMDR is less of a talking therapy. It follows a safe, focused protocol that lets the mind step aside so its natural healing process can take place, bringing the past into coherence with the present. It can greatly reduce the impact of complex trauma, negative attachment patterns, systemic trauma and PTSD. The number of sessions varies for each person.
Befriending Your Nervous System
Based on Polyvagal theory as Deb Dana teaches it. This offers a rediscovery of your body’s innate capacity for safety and regulation. We explore how your physiology shapes your emotions, stories and behaviours. Resilience can be discovered, expanded and strengthened in daily life. Many people find they feel calmer, more at ease with themselves and others once they realise they have choices to update their old survival patterns. This work weaves seamlessly with IFS, EMDR and with also the transpersonal lens.
Awakening Your Light Body
I teach Awakening Your Light Body, having trained with Dr Irene Siegel in USA in 2023.
This course is for people who want to bring expanded states of awareness into their everyday life in a grounded and steady way. For more information please visit awakeningthelightbody.com
The Five Realms (coming in 2027)
With my colleague Simon Jacobs, I am developing The Five Realms: a multi-dimensional map for the modern human. It is a simple guided process for exploring a personal issue through body, personality, family system, archetype and source, and returning with a fresh perspective. It will be available as a self-guided kit, in small groups, and for organisations.
