FREEDOM FROM COMPULSIVE BEHAVIOURS.
I help women like you unlock the future you crave, free of the cycle of nail biting, skin picking or hair pulling, so that you can step into the life you know is waiting for you.
YOU HAVE BIG DREAMS AND A CLEAR VISION FOR YOUR FUTURE
but something you battle keeps you from reaching your full potential and living the life you want.
You’ve worked so hard to build the life you have. You’re talented, driven, respected and successful in all other areas of your life - but despite all you’ve achieved, there’s something you keep hidden. You have a private compulsive behaviour holding you back.
It’s exhausting, frustrating, and at times heartbreaking. You may feel trapped in a cycle of shame and self-blame, unable to break the cycle of nail biting, skin picking or hair pulling that’s sabotaging you. You wonder why, despite all your strength and determination, you can’t seem to stop. You long to break free and leave them behind so that you can reclaim your health, confidence and unlock the freedom to pursue your goals and ambitions.
Imagine a life free of the compulsion to pick, pull or bite. Imagine a life where it’s possible to step confidently into everything you’re capable of - your career, your relationships, your sense of self, all thriving when you are no longer controlled by these behaviours.
That’s the life that’s waiting for you.
YOU’VE TRIED ASKING FOR HELP
but you’re tired of being misunderstood and feeling let down.
Y0U’VE WORKED TOO HARD TO LET THIS STRUGGLE HOLD YOU BACK.
My approach is different - it’s effective, deep and practical, combining trusted therapeutic methods with a profound and unique understanding of all aspects of compulsive behaviours.
I have dedicated my practice to working with clients who battle with picking, biting and pulling. I help them to heal, reclaim their confidence and create lives they love. My experience, commitment and deep understanding of your struggle mean you’ll never feel alone and unseen in our journey and it’s my commitment to you that I will use all my capabilities to help you achieve the change you desire.
I’m Marian Staal, I’m an EMDR Practitioner, Integrative Psychotherapist and ICF Accredited Coach and I’m here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
THE BRAIN BODY CHANGE PATHWAY
The goal of our work is to release you from your compulsions as quickly and sustainably as possible and to equip you with the necessary awareness and capabilities to ensure you have a future where you are fully in control.
Very broadly, this is a three step process:
Understanding where the behaviour came from and what sustains it now, where it is no longer needed or wanted.
Processing and resolving all underlying factors that drive the behaviour and maintain the impulses.
The development of alternative strategies to help you thrive and a real and compelling vision of the future for you to step into with greater capacity and resilience.
MY PACKAGES
BRAIN BODY CONNECT
Intensive Online Path
We’ll follow the pathway, meeting online for 6 x 90 minute sessions.
You’ll progress rapidly as you uncover, understand and resolve both the underlying and current factors that drive and maintain the compulsion to pick, pull or bite.
You’ll develop a greater sense of awareness of your responses and develop control over your nervous system and body-based urges.
You’ll rewire limiting core beliefs and, with increased insight, reduce feelings of internal shame and self-judgment and these will no longer fuel the behaviour.
You’ll create a sustainable sense of inner calm, and resilience within your nervous system and develop alternative coping strategies allowing you to actively manage and disengage from your behaviour quickly and effectively.
