WALKING THE HEALING PATH TOGETHER
Toxic relationship abuse is not always visible. It can be subtle, insidious, and deeply damaging. It may come in the form of manipulation, control, emotional neglect, gaslighting, or cycles of affection followed by cruelty. It leaves many feeling confused, isolated, and questioning their own worth.
At Kharis Change Works CIC, we recognise the courage it takes to speak up, to seek help, and to begin healing. We understand that leaving — or even acknowledging — a toxic environment can feel overwhelming. The wounds left behind are not just emotional; they can and do touch every part of your identity.
We don’t just offer therapy. We offer presence. We walk beside you — not ahead, not behind — as you reclaim your voice, your boundaries, and your sense of self.
You are not broken. You are not alone. Healing is not linear, but every step forward is a triumph.
Whether you're still in the relationship, newly out, or years into recovery — your story matters. And we are here to honour it, hold space for it, and help you write the next chapter.
If you’ve already tried explaining your feelings, analysing your history or (thinking positively), but the same emotional reactions keep showing up, IEMT offers a different route. It’s a practical approach that focuses on how emotions work now – not just where they began.
Integral Eye Movement Therapy is a brief change work model that uses eye movements to help clients shift unwanted emotional states and identity imprints, It’s not talk therapy — it’s change work.
“About 10 years ago my sister that lives over 6000 miles away from me told me that she was feeling very ill. This upset me so much and then had so much stress and anxiety. Not long after that a therapist, my son, Mark Potter, who was not qualified at that time but is now qualified then did the IEMT therapy on me. I could feel almost straight away how the stress and anxiety leave me. A few days ago my sister told me that she was going through the same thing. Not long after I heard from my sister I realised that I felt very calm and not anxious at all.I then thought about it and wondered if the IEMT therapy I had 10 years ago was still working in me. I can only thank the therapist for doing the therapy on me.”

“Hi Mark, thank you for getting in touch with me. Things have seemed to calm down quite a bit and and have seen a big improvement in my work due to not being so triggered by my feelings when similar things seem to be happening to them. I can’t thank you enough for helping me .”

“The memory just poofed. Vanished.”

“The experience was very different, unsure what it really was, but felt lighter after.”
by Kimberley
”Very calm not thinking about that experience. Very distant.”
by Fitzroy
“Once completed the feeling wasn’t as intense, but still visible. The feeling in my chest disappeared, it doesn’t feel as bad as it was.”
by Mase
"It detected some residual trauma, even after 5 years of therapy. I felt my Vagus Nerve being activated. After the eye movements, I found it quite difficult to recall the traumatic memories - like a slight confusion. Suddenly they seemed distant and my brain was being distracted by other matters.
After the session, it seemed the hypervigilance, which is often switched on in me, had turned off. I tried to think of the incidents but the Vagus Nerve and emotions wouldn't activate.
I've dreamed of school at night vividly these last few days, as I have done for years. However, this time in the dreams I was an adult looking on in a calmer scenario, or an outsider in another school, as though watching a TV show, not living in the terror."
