Trauma Therapy, Anxiety & Emotional Wellbeing Support
If you want to feel differently, something has to change. Not by forcing yourself, but by being supported differently.
When you are struggling with anxiety, trauma, PTSD, low mood, or emotional overwhelm, you can feel so alone, but there is help and a pathway towards the you that you want to be.
Many of the people I work with have tried therapy or counselling before, they have gained insight but still feel stuck.
And found that their anxiety, depression, or trauma responses continue despite great efforts to change.
You are not broken.
And you do not have to do this alone.
A Safe First Step
Many clients tell me that something begins to shift from our very first conversation.
Reaching out can feel daunting, especially if you are already overwhelmed, anxious, or exhausted.
Yet again and again, people say that making that first call was the moment things began to change.
Not because they were fixed. But because they finally felt understood, safe, and supported.
How My Trauma Therapy Approach Is Different
I offer trauma-informed therapy that works at both a nervous system and unconscious level.
Rather than focusing only on talking or coping strategies, I help you to:
- Reduce the emotional charge linked to past trauma
- Calm anxiety and stress responses held in the body
- Identify and soften unconscious patterns formed in childhood or during shock
- Release long-standing survival responses that keep you stuck
This approach often leads to real, felt change, not just insight.
Many clients notice meaningful shifts from session to session.
Rebuilding Self-Worth and Confidence
Seeking therapy is not selfish. It is an act of self-care and self-respect.
As your nervous system settles, many people experience:
- Greater emotional balance, calmness
- Improved confidence and self-trust
- Stronger, healthier relationships
- A renewed sense of calm and hope for the future
Client Experience
“I didn’t want to get out of bed or speak to anyone. Life felt unbearable. From the first session, I began to feel lighter. Within weeks, I was sleeping, socialising, and feeling hope again. I’m not finished, but I love life again.”

Contact UsMy Coaching sessions with Mell have been extremely inspiring. She has triggered my self-belief in my capacity and capability to achieve. At the beginning of our sessions I had lost direction and my enthusiasm for life, but with her skill she helped me to find my own answers, clear stuck old beliefs and a happiness that I never thought possible. I would recommend Mell if you want your life to change hugely for the better !!! Howard. Howard S, Bury St Edmonds
Testimonial from Elizabeth 6 sessions 2016 Since I have been seeing Mell I feel 100 times better. My confidence has increased greatly, I now have a sense of self-worth which I never had before. I am able to use the telephone by myself to sort out queries and arrange appointments etc. I couldn’t do this before as It made me feel anxious. Other people had to do this for me. I am now able to express my feelings in a more productive way and am able to stand up for myself better, instead of being scared of confrontation. The previous 12 months were a blur as I was unable to do any of thes things for myself and I couldn’t think straight. I feel very proud now that I am able to do these things without having to rely on others. Mell helped me greatly deal with my grief and helped me to move my life forward. I now feel confident in doing everyday tasks now as they were such a minefield before. I feel truly grateful and privileged to have met an worked with Mell and I will continue to use the strategies and tools she has put in place to continue in moving me forward. I cannot thank her enough for all of the help that she has given me. Liz X Elizabeth S, Castleton
My sessions with Melanie provided me with the tools that I needed to make clear achievable goals for myself both personally and professionally. I found my sessions with Mell surprisingly pleasant, for the first time I was able to make decisions for myself due to my increased confidence and clarity. I felt that I always progressed and was both productive and effective. This experience has changed my whole outlook on life and has given me the ability to take my life in any direction that I choose. I will always come back for Mell’s coaching. Portia X.
