Welcome to Secret Garden Therapies – a peaceful, nurturing space where body and mind can begin to heal in harmony.
I'm Nickie Mitchell, a qualified reflexologist, EMDR therapist, neurodevelopmental therapist, and registered social worker with over 20 years of NHS experience in children’s mental health CYPMHS. My work is rooted in the deep belief that the body and mind are not separate – and that true healing happens when we care for both.
I offer reflexology not just for relaxation, but as a powerful therapeutic tool. By working with specific reflex points in the feet or hands, reflexology helps calm the nervous system, support hormonal and immune function, and release physical and emotional tension stored in the body. It gently encourages the body back into balance – restoring your natural rhythm and resilience. It’s especially helpful when stress, trauma, or chronic conditions have left you feeling disconnected or overwhelmed.
Alongside complementary therapies, I offer psychological and neurodevelopmental support tailored to children, adults, and families. These include:
– Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for trauma (adults and children)
– Neuroaffirming ADHD and Autism Coaching (online or face-to-face)
– Autism and ADHD Parent/Carer Support – 1:1 guidance around emotional regulation, behaviour, post-diagnostic support, and advocacy. Flexible online or in-person options available to meet you where you are.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, burnout, chronic illness, trauma, fertility struggles, neurodivergence, or caring responsibilities – this is a space to pause, reconnect, and begin again.
You’re also welcome to request animal-assisted sessions with Dolly, my gentle emotional support dog, who brings warmth and calm to the therapeutic space.
This is your sanctuary – a quiet, grounded place to feel held, supported, and truly seen. Please get in touch to start your healing journey- 07944609556, secretgardentherapieswirral@outlook.com or DM me.
