From Trauma to Trust
Specialised Therapy and Support for Birth Trauma Recovery

Find Your Way Back to Peace After Birth Trauma

You shouldn't have to carry this weight alone. As a specialist birth trauma therapist, I help mothers process their birth experience and reconnect with themselves and their babies—one gentle step at a time.

Is This Familiar?

Specialist Therapy for the birth trauma

You've tried everything to move forward:

  • Reading about trauma and PTSD

  • Meditation and mindfulness apps

  • Online support groups

  • Trying to "just be grateful"

But you're still caught in a cycle of:

  • Flashbacks during intimate moments with your baby

  • Racing heart at medical appointments

  • Disconnection from your body and your little one

  • Overwhelming feelings of anger and betrayal

  • Guilt for not "getting over it" already

You're not alone, and you're not overreacting.

Birth trauma is real, and healing is possible.

Why Birth Trauma Needs Specialised Support?

This isn't just about anxiety management or "moving on."

Birth trauma lives in both your body and mind. It affects how you:

𑁍 Connect with your baby

𑁍 Trust medical professionals

𑁍 Feel in your own body

𑁍 View yourself as a mother

𑁍 Think about future pregnancies

That's why general therapy often isn't enough.

You need someone who deeply understands the nuanced layers of birth trauma and can help you process your experience without retraumatisation.

What Happens in CBT Therapy for Birth Trauma?

✿

Address Flashbacks & Hypervigilance
Through CBT and other therapeutic approaches, we’ll work on grounding techniques that help you manage intrusive memories, flashbacks, and hypervigilance. By recognising triggers and reducing their impact, you’ll begin to feel more in control.

✿

Process the Trauma Safely
In a compassionate and structured way, we’ll explore your birth trauma. You’ll learn how to process painful memories and emotions, so they no longer hold the same power over you. This can reduce emotional distress and help you regain a sense of peace.

✿

Manage Trauma/PTSD Symptoms
If you’re experiencing PTSD after your traumatic birth, we’ll work on reducing symptoms like anxiety, irritability, avoidance, and nightmares. You’ll learn coping strategies to manage these feelings in your day-to-day life.

✿

Build Emotional Resilience
As we progress, we’ll focus on building your emotional resilience—so that when difficult emotions arise, you’re better equipped to handle them without feeling overwhelmed or defeated.

Did you know…?

Studies show that 1 in 3 women describe their birth as traumatic.

  • Around 4% of women develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after giving birth.

  • Flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance are some of the most common PTSD symptoms experienced by those affected by birth trauma.

If you’re dealing with any of these, you’re not alone—and therapy can help you reclaim a sense of peace and safety in your life.

My Unique Approach to Birth Trauma Healing

✿ Trauma-Informed Care That Honours Your Experience ✿

Unlike general therapists who might focus solely on anxiety management, I help you:

  • Process your birth story at your own pace

  • Rebuild trust in your body

  • Develop practical tools for managing triggers

  • Reconnect with your baby without flashbacks

  • Find your voice in medical settings

✿ We Create a Safe Space for ALL Feelings ✿

Here, you won't hear:

  • "At least you have a healthy baby"

  • "You should be grateful"

  • "It's time to move on"

  • "Others had it worse"

Instead, you'll find:

  • Validation for your entire experience

  • Understanding of both trauma and motherhood

  • Practical tools that work in real moments

  • Gentle guidance toward healing

For months, I couldn't look at my c-section scar without crying. Working with You helped me process my feelings of failure and find peace with my birth story. I can finally enjoy moments with my baby without the trauma hijacking everything.

Have questions about the therapy?

Q&A

  • The length of therapy depends on your unique situation and needs. Typically, clients find 6-12 sessions helpful for managing anxiety and processing their emotions. However, some may benefit from longer-term support, particularly if they’ve experienced multiple losses or have complex trauma.

  • Each therapy session costs £115 for 50 minutes. Payment is required 48 hours before the appointment via a secure payment link sent to your email. Please note that I offer therapy exclusively to self-funded clients, meaning sessions are paid privately. I do not work with insurance companies or public health services.

  • The first step is to schedule a free 15-minute call with me. This initial conversation allows us to determine whether we're a good fit and how I can best support you on your journey.

  • At the moment, I’m only offering therapy services to clients within the UK, but I’m working on expanding my offerings internationally through online workshops and courses.

  • I understand that sometimes life can be unpredictable. If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, I kindly ask for at least 48 hours' notice. Cancellations made less than 48 hours before the appointment will be charged the full session fee, as it’s often difficult to fill the slot at short notice. This policy applies to both therapy and supervision sessions.
