What our patients had to say...
Mind & Motion's vision is to equip you with the confidence and tools you need to begin your journey to better health and wellbeing. See below a few words from previous psychotherapy and physiotherapy clients.
Psychotherapy
C.O
"Thank you for all your help, I honestly do not have the words to explain how much of an impact it has actually made on my life – both condition and mood wise. I would not have got here without your help. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you. The last six months have done wonders and I will stick to the techniques going forward."
L.W
"I just started glancing through the sheets for today and wanted to thank you again, the development in my agency over my emotions has been fantastic over the last few months and having a guide and a teacher has been invaluable. The last few months could have been very different without having someone to talk to about the right things to do in difficult situations."

"EMDR has changed my life!! Thank you so much I finally feel able to move forward with my life. I admit (as you know!) I was sceptical at first but the treatment has worked wonders. Thank you!!!"
Z.M
"I want to say thank you for your cultural sensitivity during the sessions. A lot of what I was going through was related to my culture and identity. In previous therapies I have found that I had to spend half the session explaining parts of my culture to a confused therapist. I didn’t have to do that at all with yourself, you just understood. Thank you for making me feel seen, less alone and helping me to reflect on my own actions and thoughts."
A.L
"Therapy has helped give me some insight into my negative thoughts and strategies for handling them."
S.H
"Last week was pivotal for me in really looking at the relationship with my mother in a new framework. In unpicking the aggressive behaviours I continue to endure by her, I can now see real options to mange this relationship going forward. Learning how this relationship affects so many aspects of my life has been very eye-opening."
J.D
"Having the space to be honest and explore my feelings is having a big impact on me. Learning the layers of cognition, that worrying is a behaviour and now challenging some of my compulsory behaviour are things I couldn't do without help. It has helped to reflect of current situations in my life and think about them more logically as things I can control and things I cant."
L.T
"CBT was really insightful, exploring the negative core beliefs that lie behind reactive negative thoughts gave me a lot to reflect on. And I feel like I’m starting to realise that maybe there can be some change to the way I feel whereas I’ve always felt very hopeless."
H.S
"Given me a new perspective and helped me feel much more positive"
R.K
"Sessions have helped me to be aware of the thoughts/feelings/bodily sensations as I experience episodes of anxiety or low mood, which is helping me work towards taking control of these feelings and think about how I might shift or change them."
J.R
"Sessions have been really helpful at slowly introducing positive habits so that chores and tasks feel less overwhelming time is freed for a balance of activities. We have also started looking at managing anxious thoughts to try and to make these habits more resilient to external factors"

"Last year I was involved in a road traffic accident. I was terrified of going back into the car after that and was constantly scanning for danger. This had a huge impact on my life as I couldn't bring myself to drive to work. Jasmine really helped me understand my responses as a result of this traumatic accident. I felt less alone. I can't believe that I can now confidently drive to work again!!! This has changed my life. Jasmine was understanding, empathetic and super approachable. Thank you so much."

"I have absolutely loved EMDR. My brain is so much calmer, I have gained so much more clarity and I sleep so much better now. Win win!"

"Thanks Joshua - American football is going really well now, the exercises you gave me were really helpful so I'm back playing. Will definitely use your clinic again for future injuries!"
Leanna
"Thanks for all your help!"
Glen
"Had my deep tissue sports massage with Joshua yesterday. Very knowledgeable and professional. Helped with a shoulder problem I've been experiencing and gave me physio advice to take away. Massage was good too, feeling it this morning so I know it's doing some good! Thoroughly nice chap too."
James P
"I can't thank Joshua at Mind & Motion enough for the incredible care and expertise he has provided. I had been struggling with chronic lower back pain for the past four years, trying everything from pain killers to other physios, but nothing was working. Joshua took the time to understand my pain, not just treating the symptoms but also looking at the root issue. I had a mix of hands-on therapy, tailored exercises and practical advice. I'm now starting to see real improvements and for the first time in years, I can move freely without constant discomfort. I only wish I had found Mind & Motion sooner!"
Sarah L
I came to Joshua at Mind & Motion after struggling with persistent knee pain for over a year. As an avid runner, it was really frustrating to feel like every run was making things worse. I got sick of just resting and stretching and hoping things would get better. Joshua took a completely different approach from the NHS physio I was seeing! Joshua looked at my movement patterns, muscle imbalances and my posture while running and gave me some exercises and advice to correct this. A few months later I’m back to running without pain! I feel stronger and more confident in my movement and know now how to prevent similar injuries in the future"
David A
"I developed constant neck stiffness and tension that just wouldn't go away after years of sitting at a computer for work. It goes to the point where I was waking up with headaches and struggling to focus. Things got that bad I had started to see a spinal consultant and was considering surgery. A friend recommended Joshua at Mind & Motion, and I'm so glad I gave him a try. He identified my poor posture, muscle imbalances and lack of cervical spine mobility. With a combination of hands-on treatment and targeted exercises, I noticed a big difference in my symptoms within a few weeks. Joshua also kindly visited my home office and made a few changes to my computer set up. My neck feels much looser now and the headaches are practically non-existent"
