— A DIFFERENT APPROACH

How I work

Perhaps you've told yourself that what happened wasn't that bad. You look at others who experienced different forms of abuse and tell yourself you have no right to struggle — especially when you've managed to build a successful career and a functioning life. You might feel like you're taking up space that belongs to someone worse off. But trauma isn't a competition, and there is no gold medal for suffering.

What happened to you was sexual abuse. It happened when you were a child — at your most vulnerable. You have carried it long enough.

I will not ask you to forgive, minimise, or move on. Your younger self already did what was needed to survive. What I offer is something different: a space where you can speak the truth of what happened, feel what has long been suppressed, and begin to release what your body and mind have been holding for years.

You have survived long enough. Now it's time to heal — with a therapist who specialises in exactly this.

— TRAUMA THERAPY

Therapy for Childhood Sexual Abuse Survivors

You've survived something terrible. Maybe you've learned to cope, to push through, to build a life on the outside. But on the inside, there may be parts of you still stuck in that time, still carrying the weight of what happened.

Understanding Your Struggles

Emotional confusion, burnout, trust issues, memory gaps, vivid trauma memories. These aren't weaknesses, they're responses to impossible circumstances.

Specialised Approach

I offer therapy for people who survived childhood sexual abuse and want more than just coping. Together, we'll work toward real empowerment.

Your Pace, Your Healing

We go at your pace, and we go deep. When you're ready. I'm here to listen in-depth, with skill and honesty, supporting your unique journey.

About Me

I’m a UK-trained Counselling Psychologist with a Doctorate from the University of South Wales and a Master’s from Birmingham City University. I specialise in childhood sexual abuse and incest, and my research explores trauma from the perspectives of both survivors and therapists.

I focus deeply on this work, not in a distant or purely academic way, but with a real understanding of how early abuse shapes relationships, trust, self-worth, and even the body long after it ends.

My approach is research-informed, compassionate, and grounded, offering a safe space for survivors to explore what may never have been spoken, at their own pace and without judgement.
