FEELING FOCUSED

FeelingFocused.com is the online business name of The Turning Institute Limited. The Turning Institute was founded by Emma Murphy, Counsellor and Psychotherapist to help anyone struggling with anxiety or an eating disorder to access a self-guided, effective program, safely and confidentially, online. Specialising in Eating Disorders, it was through running a therapy group for clients with Bulimia and Binge Eating Disorder over three years in Dublin, that Emma realized how difficult it was for... clients with an Eating Disorder or weight issues to come forward and ask for help, and in particular for men with any form of eating distress or body image issues. The same followed for other issues, including anxiety or depression. People found it hard to accept that they needed help, and then found it even harder to ask for that help – whether from family or friends, or a professional. It was for this reason Emma decided to adopt her group therapy sessions to an online format, so clients could access the information and tools they needed, safely and confidentially at home, to begin to tackle their emotional eating or long standing Bulimia / Binge Eating Disorder. Following the completion of the Emotional Eating Program, Emma collaborated with a colleague, Aisling Curtin, a Counselling Psychologist specialising in ACT therapy and working with anxiety clients, to produce a program for anxiety. Anxiety covers a range of issues for adults, from Generalised Anxiety Disorder – or chronic worrying, to OCD, Social Phobia and Panic Attacks.More
