Frequently Asked Questions

Safe Answers for Important Questions

Is therapy right for me?

If you are experiencing emotional pain, trauma, anxiety, emotional exhaustion, confusion, or long-term stress — therapy can help.

You do not need to be in crisis to seek support. Many clients come because they feel:

• Emotionally overwhelmed
• Chronically anxious
• Stuck in unhealthy patterns
• Drained by toxic relationships
• Disconnected from themselves
• Unable to move forward

If something inside you is seeking relief, safety, or clarity — therapy may be the right step.

What if I don’t know where to start?

You do not need to have the words.

Many clients begin by simply saying:
“I don’t know what’s wrong, but I know something isn’t right.”

Together, we gently explore your experience, identify emotional patterns, and create a safe healing pathway.

There is no pressure, no expectation, and no judgement.

I’ve experienced emotional or narcissistic abuse. Can you help?

Yes. I specialise in working with survivors of:

• Emotional abuse
• Narcissistic relationships
• Coercive control
• Trauma bonding
• Psychological manipulation
• Gaslighting

Healing from emotional abuse requires deep nervous system safety, emotional clarity, and trauma-informed care— not blame, pressure, or forced insight.

Recovery is possible. You are not broken.

What if I feel scared, anxious, or overwhelmed about therapy?

This is extremely common — especially for trauma survivors.

Fear is often a sign of a nervous system that has learned to protect itself.

My approach is:

• Gentle
• Safety-led
• Trauma-informed
• Deeply respectful

You will never be rushed, pushed, or emotionally overwhelmed. We move at your pace, in your control, with your consent.

How does online therapy work?

All sessions take place via secure, confidential online platforms, allowing you to attend therapy safely from your own environment.

Online therapy offers:

✔ Emotional safety
✔ Convenience
✔ Privacy
✔ Flexibility
✔ Worldwide access

Many trauma survivors find online therapy less intimidating and more emotionally regulating than in-person sessions.

Is online therapy as effective as in-person therapy?

Yes. Research shows that online therapy is equally effective for trauma, anxiety, emotional recovery, and psychological healing.

In some cases, it is more effective, as clients feel safer and more emotionally regulated in their own space.

How many sessions will I need?

Healing is individual.

Some clients experience meaningful relief within a few sessions.
Others require longer-term trauma processing and emotional recovery.

During your consultation, we will:

• Explore your goals
• Assess emotional patterns
• Recommend a healing pathway
• Create a realistic therapeutic plan

There is no pressure to commit long-term.

What techniques do you use?

Each therapy journey is fully personalised and may include:

🧠 Neuroscience & nervous system regulation
🤍 Trauma-informed therapy
🔁 EMDR
🛠 CBT
🔗 NLP
🌿 Emotional intelligence development

This allows healing at mind, emotional, and nervous system levels.

Will I have to relive my trauma?

No.

Trauma healing does not require reliving painful experiences.

My approach focuses on:

• Safety
• Stabilisation
• Gentle processing
• Emotional regulation

You remain fully in control of what you share and when.

Is everything confidential?

Yes — all sessions and communication are strictly confidential, professional, and secure.

Your privacy, safety, and dignity are fully
