INDIVIDUAL TRAUMA-INFORMED COACHING & COUNSELLING

Trauma doesn’t just live in our memories—it shows up in our relationships, our careers, our self-talk, and even our bodies. It can leave us feeling anxious, stuck in patterns of self-sabotage, or unable to fully trust ourselves.

That’s why my work isn’t about “fixing” you—you are not broken. It’s about helping you understand and heal from the impact of your experiences so you can move forward with clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.

If you’re struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, or the lingering effects of past trauma, our sessions will provide a safe, supportive space to process your experiences and develop tools to move forward.

Common focus areas include:

Healing from emotional abuse, narcissistic relationships, or toxic family dynamics
Breaking free from self-criticism, perfectionism, and people-pleasing
Emotional numbness that you can't understand
Managing anxiety, overthinking, and trauma-related stress
Rebuilding self-trust and setting healthy boundaries

Sessions take place online, giving you the flexibility to access support from wherever you feel most comfortable.

Below you will find the areas I commonly work with, but please feel free to contact me should you have any questions.

SELF COMPASSION & OUR CRITICAL VOICE

Are you really hard on yourself? Do you beat yourself up when you make a mistake? Trauma can often make self compassion REALLY hard. Through working on self compassion I help women silence their inner critic, develop self-kindness, and break free from harsh self-judgment.

PERFECTIONISM & OVERACHIEVEMENT

Do you get stressed over things having to be 'perfect'? Trauma can leaves feeling like we are never 'good enough'. By guiding you to let go of unrealistic standards, overcome procrastination caused by fear of failure, you will be able to embrace progress over perfection.

SELF ESTEEM & CONFIDENCE

Trauma has a massive effect on our self-esteem. Do you need someone else to tell you when you've done well because you are unable to do this for yourself? I support women in building authentic confidence, to trust themselves, and feeling worthy without external validation.

PEOPLE PLEASING & BOUNDARIES

Do you struggle to say 'NO'? If you do say No, do you often feel guilty or selfish? Trauma can leave us people pleasing ALL the time.

I can help you set and maintain healthy boundaries without guilt, say no with confidence, and prioritise your own needs.

EMOTIONAL REGULATION & STRESS MANAGEMENT

Many women come to therapy with me as they are completely overwhelmed and stressed out which could be a result of trauma. I teach strategies to manage overwhelm, reduce anxiety related to self-worth, and cultivate inner calm.

WORK/LIFE BALANCE & BURNOUT RECOVERY

Do you struggle with work/life balance?

I can help you break free from overworking, and help you manage your energy effectively, and find balance without feeling guilty.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Cathy has been extremely supportive and helped me to move on after a traumatic bereavement. I am able to cope with day-to-day living and I'm less anxious and worried. I feel optimistic about the future.

I felt from the start that I was listened to, and that Cathy was the right person to help me.

Cathy is professional, empathic and easy to talk to. She quickly puts you at ease, a quality so important when dealing with particularly sensitive issues. I cannot recommend her highly enough, I am hugely grateful.

I am super pleased with the work Cathy & I have done together over the last 10 months. Her compassionate & insightful approach has made such a positive impact on my life. I'm so grateful for her expertise and wisdom!

I found Cathy when I knew I was struggling but had not recognised I was depressed and stuck. Things have hugely improved and my mental outlook is brighter and positive. I still see Cathy as a regular appointment as she provides me with space to reflect.

I hadn’t thought about therapy before. But when my anxiety stopped me from doing something I was really looking forward to, I knew I needed to do something.

My first session with Cathy was amazing. She listened to me without judgement and allowed me to talk about anything that was worrying me.

I’ve worked with Cathy for just under a year and have really grown in my confidence and how I handle situations that cause me anxiety.

Cathy is an incredible therapist and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help.
