Trauma therapy in London and across UK

Heal from Trauma in a Way That Feels Safe, Culturally Sensitive, and Grounded

You may feel anxious, disconnected, or overwhelmed in relationships.

You may have a strong outer life—but an inner world filled with pressure, doubt, or emotional numbness.

You might not remember everything that happened, but you know you’ve been carrying something for a long time.

This is trauma. And therapy can help.

What Is Trauma?

Trauma isn’t only what happened to you. It’s also what didn’t happen—support you didn’t receive, emotions you had to suppress, safety that wasn’t available when you needed it most.

Trauma shows up in many ways:

  • Chronic anxiety, perfectionism, or people-pleasing

  • Emotional numbness or disconnection

  • Low self-worth or persistent inner criticism

  • Difficulty trusting others or setting boundaries

  • Unexplained shame or guilt

  • Flashbacks, nightmares, or body tension

You don’t need to have experienced a single traumatic event to seek help. Many of my clients carry what’s called complex trauma—repeated, often subtle emotional injuries that add up over time, especially in childhood.

You deserve trauma therapy that respects culture and complexity

Healing is not just psychological—it’s relational, cultural, and embodied.

Trauma is shaped not just by personal experience, but by:

  • Intergenerational pain and unspoken family histories

  • Cultural silence around emotional expression

  • Gender expectations and role pressure

  • Early emotional neglect masked as “normal” parenting

  • Internal conflict between cultural loyalty and personal freedom

Specialisations

  • Relational/Attachment Trauma

    If early relationships left you feeling unsafe, unseen, or unworthy, that pain can show up as trust issues, emotional disconnection, or fear of intimacy. You may long for closeness but feel overwhelmed. With the right support, you can build safer, healthier connections - starting with yourself.

  • Intergenerational Trauma

    You may carry pain that didn’t start with you - patterns of fear, disconnection, or emotional struggle passed down through generations. Even if your life looks stable, that inherited weight can feel overwhelming. With the right support, you can break the cycle and create a new path forward.

FAQs about Trauma Therapy

  • Trauma therapy is a type of counselling that helps you process and heal from distressing or overwhelming experiences. It supports your mind and body in releasing stored trauma, building emotional safety, and creating healthier patterns in your relationships and self-worth. I use an integrative approach that includes EMDR, attachment-based therapy, and culturally sensitive support—tailored to your unique experience.

  • No. Many people seek trauma therapy for emotional neglect, ongoing stress, or cultural pressure—not just one-time events. If you feel stuck in patterns of anxiety, low self-worth, or emotional shutdown, you may be carrying what’s known as complex trauma. This therapy is about understanding and healing those deep, often hidden layers.

  • Yes. Online trauma therapy can be just as effective as in-person work, especially when the space feels safe and the connection is strong. All sessions are held securely online for clients across the UK. Many clients appreciate the privacy and comfort of doing this deep work from home.

  • There’s no set timeline. Some clients begin to notice shifts after a few months; others stay longer to work through deeper patterns. Healing from trauma is not about rushing—it’s about moving at a pace that feels safe, steady, and sustainable for you.
