Maureen Anderson
UKCP Accredited Psychotherapist & Clinical Supervisor.
Tracey Adams
UKCP Accredited Psychotherapist & Clinical Supervisor.
I am a UKCP accredited psychotherapist and clinical supervisor working in the Derby area. I have over 30 years’ experience working within Forensic and Mental Health Services both within the public and voluntary sector including Civil Service and the NHS.
I hold an MSc in Integrative Psychotherapy however I have extensive CPD training, which I integrate within my practice including Hypnotherapy, EMDR, Group Analysis and in more recent years with the expansion in neuroscience research I have trained in Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM).
As a result of my own CRM sessions, I have been able to make Mind, Body, and spiritual connections, healing many historic wounds including generational trauma, as a result I have become more interested in the mind & body and connections to illness. I’m also very interested in breathwork and psychedelic / plant-based medicine.
Claire Standen
Coach, Speaker & Activist
I’m a certified and insured practitioner of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), hypnotherapist and Integral Eye Movement Technique (IEMT) practitioner. Having worked with traumatised individuals including veterans, I am a skilled and compassionate coach and therapist. My greatest passion is that people live free of unwarranted fear, and are released from the traumas of their past. To this end, I am continually learning the most effective ways to achieve this, which makes me a dynamic and adaptable therapist.
Laraine Tucker
Qi Gong and Tai Chi Instructor
I have seen many students benefit from regular practise of Qi Gong and Tai Chi. Tai Chi / Taijiquan is an internal martial art that provides a method of cultivating deep relaxation and supple strength based on a unique form of complex movements. The soft flowing movements have a deep and powerful effect on the body and mind. Many students enjoy the initial stages of training when we work towards higher awareness, deep relaxation, correct postural alignments and body mind connections in order to prepare the mind and the body for further training. I have been regularly training in Taiwan with my main teacher, Master Chen Hsiu Yao.
I have a teaching qualification and I am qualified to teach GP referrals. I am interested in helping my students understand how their body habitually reacts to stress and then giving them the tools to release it.

Peter Simon
Qi Gong and Tai Chi Instructor
As a practising manual therapist I have learnt to accept and understand there are many aspects of good health and well being. Modern lifestyle might often make us ignore various signals of our mind and body that something is out of balance.
When I was invited to start instructing Qi Gong and Meditation in Tai Chi groups
I become more aware of the many challenges adult learners may face, whether related to physical and mental health or other aspects of their lives. I enjoy working with mature students helping them to manage their conditions and impact of stress through practice of Meditation, Breath Regulation, Qi Gong and Tai Chi as well as using these as tools for self-development and self-cultivation. Seeing many students’ lives being gradually transformed by a practice of purposeful stillness and mindful movement makes me happy and more appreciative of my own regained health.
