If you’re struggling with the impact of sexual or domestic violence, you may feel anxious, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode. Trauma can manifest in many ways—difficulty trusting others, emotional numbness, feeling constantly on edge, or struggling with self-worth. These are not signs of weakness; they are your mind and body’s way of trying to protect you. Healing from trauma isn’t just about talking—it’s about reconnecting with yourself. I integrate somatic approaches that focus on the connection between your body and mind, helping you release stored trauma and develop a sense of safety within yourself.

Counselling is the opportunity to sort your thoughts; gives you time to work out what you really feel, the space to consider your options, and decide what you feel is best for you.
