Supporting Emotional Wellbeing with Kezia Mathieson: CBT and EMDR Therapy in Hilton, Derbyshire

As February begins, it is a natural time to reflect on how you are feeling. If you have been managing anxiety, stress, or the effects of past trauma, emotional support can help you feel lighter, more balanced, and better equipped to cope.

At Ora – The Wellbeing Company, therapist Kezia Mathieson offers CBT and EMDR therapy from Willow House in Hilton, near Derby. With more than 15 years of experience in both NHS and private practice, Kezia provides compassionate, clinically informed support in a peaceful, purpose-designed setting.


How CBT and EMDR Work

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps you explore the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. By identifying unhelpful patterns and developing healthier responses, CBT allows you to feel more in control and resilient in the face of life’s challenges.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured therapy that helps your brain safely reprocess difficult or traumatic memories. Through gentle guidance and sensory input, EMDR reduces the emotional charge of past experiences and supports healing at a deep level.

Both therapies are evidence-based and effective for a wide range of emotional health concerns.

Kezia works with adults who are experiencing:

  • Anxiety, panic, or obsessive thoughts
