Healing Birth Trauma with Compassion and Expertise

As an approved therapist by the Birth Trauma Association, I provide specialised support for women navigating the emotional and psychological impact of traumatic birth experiences. Whether your trauma stems from an unexpected medical event, medical coercion, lack of autonomy, disregard for your birth plans, inadequate medical care, dehumanised care, lack of consent or life-changing physical harm, I am here to help you.

I work with EMDR, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and Art Psychotherapy. I work with you to process difficult memories as quickly and safely as possible, reduce distress, and rebuild your confidence and trust in your body and mind. Together, we can explore the unique challenges you’re facing, including feelings of guilt, anxiety, or disconnection, and work towards restoring a sense of safety and self-trust.

I also offer an urgent pathway to support women who have just given birth and recognise the birth was not positive or empowering. This urgent support means that we can process what has happened in a timely fashion, with a focus on protecting and nurturing the mother-infant relationship. Regardless of what time you see me, 4 weeks pp, 6 months, 10 years - you and your baby are central to the process.

I believe that women are deserving and entitled to a birth that is positive and empowering. If you did not experience that, we will work together so that when you leave therapy, you have reconnected with the empowerment that is within you. If you are pregnant and frightened to give birth, we can work together so that you feel confident and empowered to navigate the maternity system so that you can have the birth you desire, both for you and your baby.

Reach out today to start your journey towards recovery in a supportive and compassionate environment where your voice will be heard and your consent will always be central to our work.
