Healing past wounds
When you’ve grown up in an environment where your emotional needs weren’t met—whether that looked like being ignored, criticised, or simply not feeling seen—it can leave lasting marks. You might not even realise how much those early experiences are still shaping your life today.
You might find yourself stuck in the same relationship patterns, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling overwhelmed by anxiety that just won’t go away. You might be constantly busy, striving for success, or keeping everything under control—yet underneath it all, there’s a quiet sense of not being enough.
This isn’t a reflection of who you are. It’s a reflection of what you’ve been through.
Unprocessed childhood wounds often show up in the present as your subconscious trying to protect you. The overachiever, the perfectionist, the people-pleaser—these are parts of you that developed to keep you safe. They might have helped you survive, but they can also keep you stuck—stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, in relationships that feel familiar but unfulfilling, in beliefs like “I have to earn love” or “It’s not safe to speak up.”
Your subconscious doesn’t want to hurt you. It’s doing the best it can to protect you from pain. But when we begin to gently process what happened, your subconscious starts to see that you’re safe now. It doesn’t have to keep holding on so tightly. You can begin to release those old patterns, and step into a life that feels freer, calmer, and more authentic.
I know it can feel scary to revisit the past—especially if you’re worried that therapy will be overwhelming, or that it’s too late to change. But healing isn’t about blame. It’s about understanding, self-compassion, and creating something new. And you don’t need to be in therapy forever. My approach is gentle but purposeful, helping you make sense of what’s been driving those patterns and giving you the tools to move forward.
You don’t have to carry these wounds for the rest of your life. It’s possible to reconnect with your true self, build a healthier relationship with yourself, and start making choices that feel right for you—not choices based on fear or the need to survive.
If you’re ready to explore how your past has shaped your present, and how to start creating a different future, I’m here to walk alongside you. Together, we’ll hold space for the grief, the shame, the sadness—and we’ll also make room for hope, for healing, and for the possibility of something new.
