When we experience any form of abuse in childhood – physical, emotional, sexual – it leads to a certain way of perceiving yourself, other people, and the wider world. It may impact on the way we form relationships as adults; struggling to connect with others, or perhaps fostering unhealthily dependent connections. We may even struggle to feel a connection with ourselves.

Any kind of trauma at a young age, an adverse childhood experience, may end up creating a disconnect between the mind and body and prevent us from living in the present moment. Sometimes leading to the same issues or patterns of behaviour coming up over and over again.

Our work will involve engaging with your experiences in a compassionate and curious way. I will provide the space you need to make sense of/begin to understand your lived experience(s).
