Distressing or traumatic life events

If you’re looking to make sense of and heal from difficult or overwhelming life experiences, you’re in the right place.

Trauma doesn’t always come from one clearly defined event. Sometimes it does — a moment that felt frightening, unsafe, overwhelming, or out of your control. But often, it can be the accumulation of experiences over time — feeling unsupported, unseen, or unsafe in ways that were harder to name, yet impacted how you yourself, relate to others, and move through the world.

You may have experienced (this list is not exhaustive):

Childhood experiences that felt unsafe, unpredictable, or emotionally difficult
Relationship difficulties, including feeling hurt, let down, or unsupported
Abuse – emotional, physical, sexual
Assault or witnessing acts of violence
Accidents or sudden distressing events
Ongoing stress or adversity that accumulated over time
Experiences that have affected your sense of self, safety, or ability to trust

These experiences may show up many ways, as anxiety, low mood, self-doubt, or a sense of being stuck. Perhaps certain situations, memories, or feelings still affect you, even when you want to move forward. You may find it hard to feel fully safe, at ease, or like yourself. I’m here to support you in gently exploring your experiences, and to help you move towards a greater sense of safety, stability, and self-understanding.
