My Story
Specialised Trauma and Pain recovery
Utilising EMDR (since 2007) to reduce distressing memories alongside an integrative toolkit of evidence-based therapies (including CBT, DBT and Somatic approaches), I provide tailored support both in person and via online sessions. My practise specialises in:
- Complex trauma & substance care: resolving distress from physical, sexual and emotional abuse or severe life-threatening traumas and dependency issues.
- Pain & medical trauma: Desensitising the nervous system to interrupt pain loops caused by accidents, surgeries or medical trauma.
- Healing attachment & dissociation: Providing a safe, phased approach for dissociation, chronic numbness of feeling disconnected from your body.
