Billy's Recovery Journey

Shoulder pain and anxiety

After seeing numerous therapists for his shoulder pain, Billy learned through the SIRPA programme that his pain was not due to a physical problem, and began to live a fulfilling life again.

When Billy first contacted Georgie Oldfield MCSP, Founder of SIRPA, he had seen numerous therapists and specialists for his shoulder pain. The anxiety he had been experiencing had become significantly worse as the pain increased, to the point where his life had become more and more restricted.

Billy’s talk

In this talk Billy shares how working with Georgie on the SIRPA programme helped him begin to accept that his persistent shoulder pain was not due to a physical problem.

He explains how he learned to shift his focus away from his fears and the pain, and instead focus on becoming more emotionally aware, improving his self-care and having fun so he could live a fulfilling life again.

Billy shares some of the findings and strategies he found most helpful, which he hopes will help others on their own self-development journeys.
