Trauma Recovery
Guiding you to process and heal from the past while staying safe
You may have arrived here because…
You’ve had one or several overwhelming experiences (either as an adult or as a child) which affect your life today.
You struggle to manage your emotions e.g. you might often feel anxious and on-guard or numb and hopeless.
You may have tried other types of therapy and found they didn’t work for you.
Whatever your reason for being here, I’m glad that you found me. Please read on for more detail about my trauma therapy service.
What is trauma?
Sometimes life brings experiences that overwhelm us, leaving us feeling powerless, stuck, or unable to move on.
Trauma or post-traumatic stress is the impact on your mind, emotions, and behaviours that can come from a single event (e.g. an attack or car accident) or ongoing situations where you felt repeatedly unsafe (e.g. a controlling relationship or bullying).
Negative childhood experiences can also shape how you see yourself, affecting your adult relationships, and your sense of safety and stability.
I’m experienced in working with different types of trauma including PTSD, complex PTSD and childhood trauma.
How I can help you heal from trauma.
Traumatic experiences affect your mind, emotions, and body long after they end.
In my work, I’ve seen how relieved clients are when they realise the impacts of negative experiences are normal and that it’s possible to overcome them.
I use a technique called EMDR to gently and safely guide you to calm your emotions, make sense of your thoughts, and process any traumatic experiences and current triggers, as well as future fears.
To support EMDR, I draw from a range of approaches — including attachment-focused EMDR, parts therapy, somatic therapy, and inner child therapy — to support you as a whole person, not just the parts that have been hurt.

My experiences working with trauma
Supporting people through healing is a privilege. I’ve seen how powerful it is when clients begin to live with more peace and confidence.
My own therapy journey helped me make sense of my past and build a stronger sense of self. I know how life-changing it can be to realise you were never to blame – and that you deserve healthier relationships with others and a kinder one with yourself.
