Testimonials



I have done a course of sessions with Heiko and highly recommend him. I have seen numerous therapists over the past 5 years, across a range of therapeutic modalities. Most were disappointing and a couple were good. Heiko is at the very top of my list. He is highly empathic, quick thinking and has a wonderful sense of humour. Unlike many therapists I have seen, Heiko has an efficient, targeted approach and seeks quick, lasting results. 

I was suffering from extremely high anxiety and an inability to sleep or stay in the house when I met Heiko. After the very first session I did not go driving in the middle of the night for the first time in ages. Heiko gave me the tools to overcome the urge to flee the house. Heiko's skilful application of somatic experiencing therapy has absolutely transformed my daily experience of life and helped me to find a stable baseline of calm.

Working with Heiko was wonderful! I came to him needing support in being in my body, and I got all that and more. He helped me not just deepen my own somatic practise, but encouraged me that I could trust myself and that I had everything I needed already. I loved that our sessions weren't just "traditional" somatic experiencing, but practical advice and sometimes just a real conversation with somebody who, "got it". He supported me during some very low points and kept reminding me that I had everything I needed inside me. I would absolutely recommend working with him.

I felt very safe in my sessions with Heiko. No matter how lost or chaotic my state was he always facilitated a space for me to be guided back to a state of calm and confidence. I always felt his unshakable presence during the whole session which really helped me access different parts of myself. I feel I learned a lot during our sessions and I still feel the benefit. The experience of going from feeling so hopeless and helpless to so resourced and stable when nothing external changed at all, has effected me a lot. I´ve learned about my own power to face any experience and how to access my inner knowing and resilience.

Heiko was very supportive and held me in a grounding and sensitive way without judgement. He has a warm, open and uplifting nature which made me feel at ease. Body awareness was central to our sessions, bringing attention to the sensations in my body. I can now identify the subtle signs that my nervous system has been activated. During the sessions I became aware of my disossociation. It is something I have never really been aware of before so to identify the different signs of my disossociation has been really beneficial. Heiko was able to support me to stay in my body, in the room and be with the sensations and emotions that accompany this. I enjoyed how Heiko encouraged creativity to discover grounding visualisations to calm my nervous system.

Heiko brings a sensitive and loving energy to his therapeutic work. I've been privileged to experience this both as a client in his work with Somatic Experiencing and as a co-facilitator on workshops. Heiko is  man who goes the extra mile to ensure that his clients' needs are met, and his level of attunement with clients and workshop participants is extraordinary. As a workshop leader and facilitator he brings a depth of calm maturity and wisdom which ensures participants feel safe and well-held, giving them the opportunity to explore their feelings, try new ways of being, and develop their emotional experience.
