As a counsellor specialising in trauma, I work with compassion and creativity to help you feel safe, supported, and understood. Together, we gently explore not just your thoughts and feelings, but also the deeper, subconscious patterns that can shape how you experience life today. Using a creative and intuitive approach, I invite curiosity, imagination, and self-discovery into the healing process. This allows space for old wounds to be acknowledged and released, while new ways of being can emerge. My aim is to walk alongside you as you reconnect with your inner strength, resilience and capacity for change.
Trauma therapy: The effects of childhood trauma can extend into adulthood, influencing coping mechanisms, decision-making, and overall life satisfaction. My counselling services specialise in providing empathetic and tailored support you navigating the complexities of childhood trauma, to empower you to rewrite your narratives, fostering resilience.
This approach recognises the lasting impact of trauma, this is when stressful events that you experience or witness make you feel unsafe, helpless or vulnerable. Therapy will help you to learn about what has happened to you, not what is wrong with you. The focus is on compassion listening and understanding rather than making a diagnosis.
