At Origami we do things differently
What Makes Us Different?
At Origami we are coaches, but we are also trained therapists.
This means that when you hit a roadblock to progress that’s a little deeper than coaching skills alone can effectively shift, we can flow seamlessly into therapeutic methods to help you clear the barrier and get moving again.
And before you think “ugh! Talking about my feelings. No thank you!” it’s not that kind of therapy.
We are both fully trained in Cognitive Hypnotherapy and Integral Eye Movement Technique (IEMT). Both are techniques that have been shown to be effective in resolving those issues that keep us stuck and without all the ‘talky-talky’.
