Trauma Counselling in Newcastle, Killingworth & Whitley Bay
Supporting adults who have experienced trauma, grief, abuse and difficult relationship experiences with compassionate, professional therapy in the North East and online across the UK.
Whether you are carrying the impact of childhood trauma, traumatic bereavement, relationship pain, betrayal or abuse, you do not have to face it alone. I provide a calm, confidential space where you can begin to explore what has happened, understand how it has affected you and move towards deeper healing.


Professional therapy to help you process, heal and move forward
Life can feel exhausting when past experiences continue to affect your present. You may look as though you are coping on the outside while feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected or stuck inside.
Therapy gives you space to slow down, make sense of your experiences and begin to work through the emotional impact of what you have been carrying. My approach is warm, professional and trauma-informed, supporting you at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
I work with adults experiencing:
-High personal expectations, perfectionism and pressure to keep going
-Trauma and post-traumatic stress
-Childhood trauma and emotional neglect
-Complex and traumatic bereavement
-Relationship and betrayal trauma
-Emotional, physical and sexual abuse
-Difficulties with trust, boundaries and relationships
-Anxiety, overwhelm and emotional exhaustion
