If you are struggling right now, I hear you, I feel your pain.
You dont have to go through it alone.
You dont have to have it all figured out right now.
Just tap along with me and breathe.
If you want to learn ways to regulate your emotions and explore things thay may be difficult in your life right now with a licensed professional then plewse DM me.
I am Trauma Focused Psychotherapist. Clinical EFT Tapping Practitioner and Intuitive Energy Healer. I have availability for online sessions.
I specialise in working in the neurodivergent community and helping those who have experienced both ptsd and complex trauma, alongside other mental health challenges.
Youâve probably heard the word âtriggersâ thrown around a lot in the healing world.
But what does it actually mean?
Iâm going through a huge transition in my life right now.
Yesterday, I closed the doors on a 12-year business. It was out oc my control due to the land being sold and I had to go with it.
It was my dream, my passion something I built from the ground up, on my own.
I handed the keys back to the place I called home, I also said goodbye to my horses, cats and team.
As you can imagine, this has stirred a lot of emotion.
I decided to book a therapy session to gently unpack what was coming up for me.
What surfaced was something deeper than the present moment. This transition was triggering my fifteen-year-old self, the part of me who once watched her house burn down and lost everything she owned.
Back then, I was lost.
I was scared.
I shut down.
I went into survival mode.
A trigger isnât just an overreaction to whatâs happening now.
Itâs when a present-day event activates unresolved memories, emotions, or nervous system responses from the past.
The body doesnât always know the difference between then and now. So even when we are safe in the present, our nervous system may respond as if weâre back in the original experience.
What I learned in therapy is that my current loss, ending my business, that was out of my control,was echoing an earlier loss. My younger self experienced sudden devastation and instability, and those emotions were stored in my body. So when something similar happened years later, those old feelings resurfaced with full intensity.
For 20 years, until I began therapy in 2018, I didnât fully realise how much that early survival response shaped me.
Survival mode can look like emotional shutdown, hyper-independence, people-pleasing, avoidance, or pushing through at all costs.
These are not flaws; they are adaptive coping strategies that once kept us safe.
But what kept us safe back then can limit us later on.
What I want you to know is this:
Sometimes what youâre experiencing now isnât just about the present moment. It may be connected to past experiences that havenât yet been fully processed.
That connection can intensify emotions and pull us back into old patterns of retreating, numbing, or coping in ways that no longer serve us.
The good news is, through therapy, awareness, and healing, you can move through this.
You can meet those younger parts of yourself with compassion, help your nervous system learn that you are safe now, and respond to life from your adult self rather than from old survival states.
If this is something you are facing and want to explore please DM me to see how we can work together.
⨠A New Year Isnât About Reinventing Yourself...
Itâs About Coming Home to Yourself â¨
January has a way of amplifying everything.
The exhaustion you pushed through last year.
The patterns you hoped would change on their own.
The nervous system thatâs been surviving instead of settling.
If youâre feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or quietly struggling, it doesnât mean youâre failing. It means your system has been working hard to protect you.
This is why now matters. Therapy isnât about âfixingâ you. Itâs about creating a safe, steady space where your body and mind can finally exhale.
đż To slow down after years of pushing through
đż To understand your responses, not judge them
đż To build regulation, safety, and resilience from the inside out
đż To start the year supported and not alone
The start of a new year is powerful not because of resolutionsâŚ
âŚbut because it offers a pause...a chance to choose yourself differently.
If youâve been telling yourself âIâll deal with this laterâ, this may be your sign that later is now.
I offer:
⢠Individual Online Therapy
⢠Group Therapy
⢠Walk & Talk Therapy
Specialising in working with neurodivergent adults, trauma, and mental health challenges.
⨠There is no âright timeâ to begin, only the moment you decide you deserve support.
As 2025 comes to a close, Iâve been sitting with a simple question:
What am I leaving behind â and what am I welcoming in?
Iâm leaving behind the version of me that believes she has to make herself small to please others and that I have to carry everything alone.
The pressure to âbe fine.â
And the habit of moving on too quickly from what actually needs time to process and heal.
Iâm leaving behind silence where truth was needed.
Busyness where rest was asking to be heard.
In 2026, Iâm welcoming in:
⨠Slower, more present pace in life
⨠New experiences, friendships and love
⨠Boundaries that protect connection, not closeness
⨠Soul alignment
I am also holding true the belief that im exactly where I need to be, everything comes to me ay the right time and everything life throws at me, good & not so good are to help me learn and grown, spiritually, emotionally and physically.
đŹ What are you leaving behind in 2025 and what are you welcoming in for 2026?

Even as a therapist, I donât have everything figured out.
I get emotionally overwhelmed too and when you add ADHD into the mix, my nervous system can go from calm to overloaded very quickly.
There are moments when my thoughts race, my body feels buzzy or shut down, and I know I canât think my way out of it.
Thatâs when I come back to practices like this.
This short EFT tapping and breathing practice helps me slow my body down, regulate my nervous system, and create just enough space to feel grounded again.
Not âfixedâ. Not perfect. Just steadier.
I use this for myself and I share it with clients because itâs simple, accessible, and works with your nervous system, not against it.
If youâre someone who feels easily overwhelmed, emotionally flooded, or overstimulated, especially with ADHD or a busy mind, I hope this offers you a moment of relief too.
đ¤ Save this for when your body needs calm.

⨠A gentle check-in before we step into the new year⌠â¨
This year has held a lot of grief for me from losing family members, to saying goodbye to my horses, and having to unexpectedly close my Equine Therapy Centre. Ive learnt to be with the most difficult emotions and sit in the discomfort to try and fully process this chapter.
And yet at the same time, thereâs also been so much joy, connection, and meeting new people who have left a lasting mark on my life in such a short space of time.
As I move into the New Year, Iâm choosing to go slowly.
Iâm not rushing.
Iâm taking the time to feel and honour all the emotions Iâm experiencing right now sadness, gratitude, hope, love⌠every single one matters.
Reflection doesnât have to be complicated or perfect.
Some gentle prompts Iâve been using:
â¨ď¸What brought me joy this year?
â¨ď¸What lessons did I learn?
â¨ď¸What am I ready to release?
Growth isnât linear.
Rest, reflection, and honoring your feelings are part of the journey.
As I set intentions for the year ahead, Iâm focusing on how I want to feel, rather than rigid goals.
If youâre reflecting too, I invite you to pause for a moment and notice your own experiences.
Thereâs no need to fix anything, just acknowledge it, honor it, and hold it gently. đż
đ Hereâs to stepping into the new year with compassion for ourselves, every feeling is valid.

đż Learning to Be With Whatâs Hard
Many of us have been taught to avoid what feels uncomfortable in our bodies, to distract, push through, or disconnect when difficult sensations arise.
But in somatic-based therapy, we do something different.
Instead of turning away, we learn how to stay with the sensations, safely, gently, and with curiosity.
Because those tight chests, heavy stomachs, or waves of tension are not the enemy.
Theyâre messages from the body, the stories of stress, fear, or protection that havenât yet had the chance to be seen, felt, or released.
When we bring awareness to whatâs happening inside (without judgment or pressure to âfixâ it), the body begins to soften.
The nervous system learns that itâs safe to feel again.
And from that space, healing starts to unfold naturally.
This is the essence of somatic work, helping you reconnect to your bodyâs wisdom, learning to listen rather than override, and finding safety within your own system.
So if youâre noticing sensations that feel uncomfortable, heavy, or âtoo much,â try this:
⨠Take a slow breath.
⨠Name what youâre feeling, just as it is.
⨠Remind yourself you donât have to change it â only be with it.
Over time, these small moments of awareness build trust with your body,a relationship that leads to deeper calm, regulation, and connection.
đż If this resonates and youâd like to explore somatic therapy further, I currently have availability for online sessions.

A little glimpse into the life behind the scenes of your therapist.
When Iâm not in the therapy room, youâll usually find me outdoors. I love being out in nature; walking on the beach, hiking, at the gym, or little adventures with my dog Nala.
I love to keep fit and healthy, enjoy travelling, adventures, horses, and spending time with my family, moments that keep me grounded, curious, and connected to what really matters.
These arenât just hobbies for me; theyâre how I regulate my nervous system, recharge, and stay present in my own life.
I believe deeply in practicing what I invite my clients into, listening to the body, finding safety, and creating space for both rest and growth.
Iâm passionate about making a genuine difference in peopleâs lives, especially those navigating trauma, burnout, ADHD, or feeling disconnected from themselves.
Showing up as a therapist means showing up as a human first.
This year, Iâm choosing to share more of me authentically, imperfectly, and with warmth.
If youâre here, Iâm really glad you found your way to my page đ¤

đą Child & Adolescent Psychotherapy: Supporting Young People Through Lifeâs Toughest Moments
Many children and teens today are navigating challenges that feel overwhelming.
Anxiety, depression, school-based trauma, neurodivergent struggles, grief, loss, and emotional overload can leave them feeling stuck, misunderstood, or disconnected.
My approach to therapy is designed to meet them exactly where they are; gently, safely, and creatively.
⨠How I Work
I blend a range of therapeutic practices to create a deeply supportive, personalised experience:
đŁ Traditional Talk Therapy to explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
đ§ Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work to support parts of the self that need care and grounding.
đâđ¨ EFT Matrix Re-imprinting (Advanced Practitioner) to process and transform difficult memories or emotional patterns.
đż Somatic & Nervous System Practices to help young people reconnect with their bodies, build regulation, and increase emotional capacity.
This integrated approach supports children and adolescents not only in understanding what they feel, but also in shifting how they experience these feelings in their body by fostering lasting change from the inside out.
Whether a child is struggling with school pressures, emotional overwhelm, identity, friendships, or lingering trauma, therapy can offer them a space to feel seen, heard, and empowered.
đ If your child or teen is finding life challenging right now, Iâm here to help.
Get in touch to learn more or book a session.
I have availability online on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and In Person Thursday afternoons.

Jenny is a fully qualified Reiki Master/Teacher, Advanced Energy Healer, EFTMatrix Re-Imprinting Practioner, Equine Assisted Therapy Practitioner & DNA Trauma Release Therapist.
With over 8 yearsâ experience in her line of work she has had a remarkable impact in the lives of the people she has worked with. Over the years she has helped people & children with mental health issues, anxiety, depression, autism & additional needs, pain related injuries, long term illness, PTSD and more.
Her treatments are tailored to the individualâs needs. Each person is unique and what works for one might not work for another. Jenny works intuitively and uses Kinesiology based Muscle Testing to find out what is needed for the individual at that time. People often come to Jenny when they have tried all other routes of therapy and nothing has worked.
Whether it be Energy Healing, EFTMatrix Re-Imprinting or Equine Assisted Therapy, her sessions enable the client to work through their trauma helping facilitate the bodyâs natural healing process on a physical, emotional and spiritual level.
In society we are taught how to over-ride the natural trauma release response, the result of this is that we often store body trauma, leading to unexplained physical problems, emotional issues, and psychological blockages. Especially true of intense or traumatic things that happen to us in the early years of life. At the point of trauma, we make subconscious beliefs based on how we perceive the world or ourselves to be, based on the specific event. Your subconscious beliefs create your life. If you change those beliefs, you can change your life. Studies have shown that most of our beliefs come from early childhood.
Jenny facilitates the session for you to source the trauma trapped in your body and then release it. This helps the subconscious mind to move through the trauma rather than freezing it in your body. Using the same process, she helps you identify the negative beliefs you made during this time and re-imprinting new beliefs.
The horses play a part in her therapy work, not only as therapeutic assistance but also to help her clients gain deeper insight into their subconscious behaviours. The horses aid in her work in so many ways but horses are used because they have an innate ability to mirror the thoughts and behaviours of others. Because they are prey animals, they can read body language and respond instantly. This means that if you enter the horseâs space with a negative attitude and defensive body language, chances are the horse will not want to interact with you. Alternatively, if you enter with a sense of calm, confidence and openness - you should find the horse responds more positively. It is this trait that helps you to reflect on your behaviour and challenge the way you approach situations both inside and outside of your therapy session.
Clients have reported that after just 1 session they can notice huge changes with lasting effects. However, a minimum of 6 sessions is usually recommended to help make the most dramatic shifts and changes for her clients.
