Stress and Trauma Help

About Us

I work with clients in person and via Skype, and I am passionate about helping people deal with the effects of stress and trauma in their lives.

My priority in sessions is that you have an experience of feeling supported, safe, and accepted just as you are, and my focus is on using gentle and effective techniques to help you find and engage your inner resources towards the wellbeing, safety and goodness you need to thrive. It might be that those inner resources don't seem much right now, but they can grow into something strong and resilient that will be an invaluable support to you in your life.

If you are overcoming the effects of trauma in the past, or trying to find strength to manage current circumstances (or both), I want to be your cheerleader – I'm on your side, and I know you can do it.

Having suffered from a stress-related illness myself, I have personal experience of the huge difference the therapies can make. I am an AAMET certified accredited advanced practitioner and trainer in EFT, and I am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner with three years' focused training in trauma therapy.

In addition to private practice, I work at Edinburgh Women’s Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre, offering therapies to women using the service; with staff at the Scottish Government, and worked for 5 years with patients in a ward at the Royal Edinburgh Psychiatric Hospital.

As well as offering one-to-one therapy sessions, I run regular AAMET-accredited training in EFT – details and dates are available on my website.

For more information on myself and the therapies I offer, and to see what clients say about me, please visit my website. If you have any questions, or you’d just like a chat about how I might help, please call or email me.
