Trauma
Trauma
Trauma is deeply personal and unique to each individual. It’s not defined by the events themselves but by your experience of the events; how it overwhelmed your ability to cope, and how that has left a lasting impact on your mind, body, and emotions. I can support you with historic or recent trauma.
Trauma can manifest in many ways, from symptoms that disrupt your daily life to deeper emotional wounds that affect your sense of identity. You might experience intrusive memories, flashbacks, panic, anger and emotion dysregulation. You may feel isolated, ashamed, or stigmatised, as though the trauma has defined you.

Birth Trauma
Experiencing birth trauma can be deeply distressing, leaving a lasting emotional and psychological impact. It’s not uncommon to feel overwhelmed, anxious, or even fearful about the prospect of another pregnancy or childbirth after a traumatic birth experience.
If you’ve experienced birth trauma, know that you are not alone. Birth trauma can stem from various factors, such as unexpected medical interventions, complications, loss of control during labour, feeling unsupported or dismissed, or even events where both mother and baby’s safety were at risk. It’s important to remember that the trauma is about how the experience made you feel—not about how others might perceive the ‘obstetric nature’ of your birth experience.
