Professionally, I am a Trauma Therapist, Teacher, Coach, Clinical Hypnotherapist, EFT practitioner and occassional birth doula. Personally, I am a mother to 5 children, 4 grown up and my youngest daughter is 15. My greatest achievement and learning has been as mother. My children have been my greatest teachers in relation to who I am and how work.  
 
 
 
 
My life-long work, learning and personal experiences are the foundation of my private practice since 2015. I offer unique and personal care to support recovery and emotional well being in the face of some real challenges and a range of issues on the parenting jurney and map. My areas of expertise include: 
Anxiety, Stress management, Addictive personality, PTSD rand low mood. I specialise in supporting healing from a traumatic pregnancy, birth and postnatal recovery.  
 
"I am someone with a passion for supporting parents to become their best selves. I deeply recognise that the more we can show up and be our true selves, flaws and all, the more we can authentically relate to others in our lives". 
 
We all need connection, compassion and space to understand our experiences and to be understood. Whether its preparing for birth or tooling up with anxiety hacks to cope with life on lifes terms – nothing is insurmountable. This is what I do. I offer therapeutic sessions for mothers and fathers to overcome challenges of anxiety, post natal depression, PTSD and trauma symptoms related to fertility issues, miscarriage, birth, overwhelm of parenting and much more. 
Working with me you can develop the courage to get acquainted or re-acquainted with your true feelings and true self – eliminating self- doubt and claiming more confidence and self-esteem. 
 
Healing happens within a nurturing and supportive space. Taking time to understand experiences and emotions can be transfomative. Quite quickly your relationships and quality of life can be positively improved. Whether thats with your baby, partner or with yourself - usually its all round improvements for everyone.
