Trauma and PTSD Counselling in Milton Keynes
In our work together, we’ll gently explore what’s been weighing on you, understand the patterns that keep showing up, and find new ways forward that feel more aligned and empowering.
I often work with people who feel like they’re carrying a lot—managing anxiety, self-doubt, people-pleasing, or the pressure to hold everything together. You might find yourself stuck in the same relationship patterns, questioning your worth, or feeling burned out from trying to meet everyone else’s expectations. You're thoughtful and self-aware, but you're ready for deeper support and real change.

As a therapist, I bring both lived experience and extensive professional expertise working with neurodivergent individuals. Drawing from my personal insights and specialised training, I offer a uniquely empathetic approach grounded in a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by neurodivergent people. Whether in decoding social cues, managing sensory sensitivities, or cultivating self-acceptance, I've walked a similar path, giving me an intimate knowledge of the barriers and triumphs that shape the neurodivergent experience.

An ideal client would be someone with an understanding of how counselling can be used effectively, that said - many discussions with my clients have given me new insights about this and often through these discussions, the client and I can arrive on the same page. Whilst I have a background in trauma training, I do not expect all clients to come with trauma as their reasons for seeking counselling. I am here for you, whatever it is you wish to discuss. My work with clients is open ended, as such - needs and goals can change over time, reviewing our work periodically will help address any change in your desired outcome(s).

I support people in finding hope for the future rather than existing in the past. Sometimes it can feel as though we are playing a role for other people, rather than being our genuine selves.

By seeking counselling, you are taking a first step towards having a better understanding of your needs and how to meet them, work through past experiences and feel more in control of your future. If this resonates with you, read on...

I work mainly with women who are stuck in a cycle of emotional eating, sugar addiction, or binge eating. My clients have tried countless diets but know their struggles are rooted in deeper emotions and beliefs. They crave lasting transformation – to feel in control around food and break free from guilt and shame. Their goal is peace with food and their body, driven by self-acceptance, not punishment. They are ready to heal, seeking a compassionate guide to help her rewrite their story and build new, empowering habits.

Hi, I’m Coral — I’m really glad you’re here.
Sometimes we feel disconnected — from ourselves, others, or life. That disconnection can show up in many ways: mood swings, burnout, anger, low mood, people-pleasing, or relationship struggles. You might feel something’s off or like you’ve lost touch with who you are. However it shows up, you’re welcome here — exactly as you are.
I offer a supportive, non-judgmental, empathetic, and honest space to explore what’s going on inside. Together, we can untangle what’s happening, process your previous experiences, reconnect with your sense of self, and move toward lasting change.

Being worried and anxious can effect our whole lives. It may mean that we start to complete rituals to combat this anxiousness or it may mean that we avoid things (e.g. going to school) and stop doing things we previously enjoyed (e.g. social activities like clubs or hobbies). Similarly, if we feel low it might be difficult to get out of bed or be active. We might feel different to others, like we don’t fit in or we are not good enough. We may also be experiencing urges to self-harm or be having suicidal thoughts. Together, we can explore these thoughts and outline a plan to help you to feel better.
