Trauma-Informed Healing

Trauma & Recovery

Trauma can shape how we feel, think, and relate long after an experience has passed. Through a trauma-informed and carefully paced approach, I focus on safety, stabilisation, and supporting your nervous system to process what has felt overwhelming. 

Recognizing the Signs

Do you carry unprocessed trauma?

Trauma isn't always obvious. It can look like being on high alert, avoidance, intrusive thoughts, emotional numbness, or a sense that something is 'off.' If difficult experiences still have a grip on you and you find yourself asking ‘why is this impacting me so profoundly?’, trauma therapy can help.

Recent or acute trauma

Trauma-informed therapy can be beneficial following recent accidents, losses, experiencing violence or sexual assault, or other frightening experiences, as well as for earlier events that continue to affect how you feel, think, or relate.

Childhood wounds still affecting you

Early experiences can shape how we see ourselves, relate to others, and respond to stress. Therapy offers a space to gently explore and update patterns that may no longer serve you.

Stuck in fight-flight-freeze patterns

If your nervous system is locked in survival mode, trauma therapy can help restore your natural capacity to reset.

The Benefits of Trauma-Informed Therapy

Therapy prioritises safety, stabilisation, and gradual processing. The work is collaborative and paced carefully, supporting integration and resilience without overwhelming you. 

Understanding the Method

What trauma-informed therapy involves

Trauma-informed therapy recognises that overwhelming experiences can affect both the mind and the nervous system. Rather than focusing only on talking through events, therapy also considers how trauma may be held in patterns of stress, avoidance, heightened alertness, or feeling shut down.

Using evidence-based and somatically informed approaches, I support you to strengthen regulation, build internal resources, and gently process experiences when appropriate. This may include developing awareness of body-based responses, supporting nervous system regulation, and integrating past experiences in ways that reduce their current impact.

The focus is on safety, stabilisation, and collaborative pacing. Therapy supports your system to feel steadier and more integrated over time.

The Transformation

What Healing looks like

Healing does not erase what happened. It changes how your mind and body respond to it.

  • You can remember what happened without being overwhelmed by it. The intensity softens, and the memory feels more integrated rather than intrusive.

  • Hypervigilance eases. You can be present again. You begin to feel more present and steady, with a greater sense of safety in your body.

  • You're no longer defined by what happened to you. The trauma becomes part of your story, not the whole of it, allowing greater choice in how you move forward.

  • As regulation improves, the ripple effects are often felt in daily life. Sleep may stabilise, relationships can feel safer, and energy once tied up in survival becomes available for living.
