“I’d go as far as to say that every single human, no matter what profession, should have this FAST support. It would make a much better world!”
A.M. Police Officer
FAST Trauma Support was born out of an emergency response and desire to help our frontliners survive the horrific fears, overwhelm and trauma brought on by the initial COVID 19 outbreak.
It is now over 3½ years since FAST began. With the added COST of LIVING crisis, we are now needed EVEN MORE than ever to help with anxieties, burnout, exhaustion, continuing stress and symptoms of PTSD.
Whether you’re based in the NHS, public or private sector care, or the Emergency Services, we’re here to offer our therapeutic skills, expertise and time to help you release stress & trauma, and share highly effective, yet simple self-help tools that can be used anywhere, any time.
How Our Offer Works
Our FAST service was offered free of charge for 2 ½ Covid crisis years, and we received no Government grants or funding.
However in order to continue our valuable work, we now have to become sustainable. Therefore, if you are able, your donation contributions towards your sessions are encouraged and greatly appreciated. If you are in a position to ‘Pay one Forward’ as well, that would be awesome. (N.B. FAST has pledged to always give free of-charge sessions to those not in a financial position to contribute in these difficult times- no questions asked)
confidential
All our practitioners hold advanced qualifications and have extensive post-qualification training and experience working with trauma. Confidence is key when it comes to our services.
non-judgemental
As a healthcare or emergency worker during Covid, with the added pressures of the cost of living crisis, you’ve faced a period of unprecedented stress and uncertainty. Any problem, big or small, we can help, with no judgement and a listening ear.
understanding
As healthcare professionals, we understand the environment you may be experiencing. As well as this, every member of staff is highly trained to ensure you feel understood throughout the whole process.
empathetic
If you’ve been impacted by the Covid or Cost of Living crisis in any way – whether recently, or from the very early stages – our service is here to support you. Even just a couple of shorter sessions can make a big difference to how you feel – and to your quality of life.
calming
You don’t have to be experiencing constant high anxiety to benefit from our service – and Covid-19 doesn’t have to be the main focus of the sessions. In fact, many of our clients who waited to request help commented that they wish they’d got in touch sooner. Talk through your issues with us, and realise the calm and clarity you could be experiencing.
flexible
We know this is an extremely busy time for all healthcare and emergency workers, especially with the shortage of staff issues. That’s why we’ve aimed to make our service as flexible as possible. If you’re a frontline professional and you’re only able to make one or two EFT sessions, we’d still encourage you to get in touch. We frequently receive ‘life-saving’, ‘life-changing’ feedback.
online
Minimal contact and maximum convenience. Fit the help you need into your schedule.
What is EFT?
Tangible, long-term effects from our sessions can usually be gained fast. We are FAST by name; fast by nature!!
We suggest trying up to four Emotional Freedom Techniques sessions.

What our clients are saying …
“When I first connected with my FAST EFT therapist on Zoom, my overwhelm was so intense I couldn’t even speak. Everything was a scrambled mass of mixed emotions. I mirrored the practitioner’s tapping while she gently reassured me, making me feel safe to acknowledge and tune in to my feelings, and they all began to unravel til the intensities lowered. I started to think straight again and, with her help, started to change the way I had been looking at things, putting a different light on them. It felt so liberating and, to my surprise ( and relief) the results have lasted since then. Just brilliant!”
