Therapy for women who have experienced childhood trauma
You're on edge, shut down, self-sacrificing, or oscillating between them. You're fed up and want to feel some sense of stability.
But, I’ve already done therapy…
You've may have tried it before. Maybe lots of it. You understand your childhood trauma completely—you can explain it perfectly, analyse it, talk about it for hours. You’ve tried swapping a ‘negative’ thought for a ‘positive’ one and worked on your mindset and thoughts.
So why hasn't anything shifted?
Because understanding isn't the same as healing. Your logical mind knows you're safe. but your nervous system still doesn't feel it.
That's because trauma largely doesn't live in your thoughts. It lives in your body, your physiology.
In our work together, we're not just talking about what happened. We're helping your nervous system learn—through your body, through what you feel—that the danger is actually over. That's what creates real, lasting change.
Exploring where your trauma responses came from, to understand why your nervous system still feels unsafe
Learning how to regulate yourself when triggered, so you can stay present instead of going into fight/flight/freeze
Building your capacity to feel genuinely safe and connected in relationships
Our work together might include:
Processing what's stored in your body without having to relive or retell everything
Giving you tools to manage anxiety and panic, so they stop controlling your daily life
Creating space to discover who you are when you're not in survival mode
The therapy process
1. Free discovery call Explore my approach through this website or browse my instagram. If what I share resonates, book a free 15-minute call where we can explore whether working together feels like a good fit.
2. Building safety (First 6-8 sessions) We focus on nervous system regulation and building a secure therapeutic relationship. You'll start learning what genuine safety feels like in your body.
3. Ongoing therapy We move into deeper work, always at a pace that feels manageable. I offer gentle exploration as well as practical tools, helping you build the nervous system stability you need to finally start living instead of just surviving.
