I FOUND MY WAY, AND YOU CAN TOO.
I know what it feels like to wake up one day and realize I no longer know who I am or how to love myself, in a world that feels scary and painful. I struggled with trying to figure out what had happened to me and didn’t know how I would ever feel ok again.
It wasn’t until I discovered that trauma needs to be healed in the body, that I was able to really feel things start to shift. Healing from trauma is something that needs to be done with support and guidance.
This led me to the path that I am now on. Having experienced trauma coaching and then learning how to do this for other women, I am now a qualified trauma informed coach and can offer you a safe space to be heard and supported through your healing journey.
“You are imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging.”
WHAT IS ABUSE?
“Abuse is defined as any action that intentionally harms or injures another person.”
(Gale Encyclopaedia of Medicine)
People of any age or gender can abuse or experience abuse. The person abusing you could be your spouse or romantic partner — but they might also be your business partner, parent, caretaker, friend, sibling or other relative, or even your adult child.
ABUSE IS NEVER OK, AND IT IS NEVER YOUR FAULT IF SOMEONE ABUSES YOU.
Many people who have experienced abuse have trauma. You don’t even necessarily understand what has happened to you but can be experiencing a vast range of emotions and often feel like there is no one who can help, no one who really gets it.
WHAT IS NARCISSITIC ABUSE?
Narcissistic abuse has similarities with other forms of abuse, including physical and emotional abuse, the difference with narcissistic abuse is the intentionality behind targeted and systematic behaviour towards the victim.
If you have been on the receiving end of abuse from a Narcissistic person you will likely be feeling lost, confused, and isolated. A common indicator is feeling like you are going crazy or that you are losing you mind. Your feelings of shame, self-blame and guilt make it hard or even impossible to reach out for help. And if you do try to tell people about what is happening or how your are feeling, you often feel misunderstood or not believed.
