Brainspotting - anxiety, trauma, narcissistic abuse

Healing after narcissistic abuse & antagonistic relationships

If a relationship, romantic, familial, professional, or a friendship, left you feeling:


  • Constantly unsure of yourself or questioning your own reality


  • Blamed for things that were never yours to carry


  • Emotionally exhausted, anxious, or walking on eggshells


  • Isolated from others or unsure who you can trust


  • Disconnected from your voice, your identity, or your sense of worth


  • Full of regret; for staying, for hoping, for believing it would be different


I see you, and you are not alone.



The impact of emotionally abusive or antagonistic relationships, whether in childhood with a narcissistic parent or in adult relationships shaped by manipulation and control, is often deep, hidden, and hard to name.


It doesn’t always look like abuse from the outside. It often builds slowly: subtle manipulation, constant self-doubt, moments of charm or affection followed by withdrawal, blame, or control.


By the time you realise something’s wrong, you may feel lost in a fog of confusion and grief, unsure of what’s real, or who you are anymore.


This is also betrayal trauma and it can shake your sense of self, your ability to trust, and your understanding of what a healthy connection even feels like.



You may not just be grieving the relationship, you may be grieving the version of yourself you lost along the way.



Time alone doesn’t heal this kind of trauma, but with the right support, healing is absolutely possible.


In our work together, you’ll have space to process what happened, without judgment, without pressure.


We’ll gently begin to untangle the gaslighting, the internalised blame and the survival patterns you’ve had to carry.


This isn’t about reliving painful moments. It’s about restoring your sense of safety, reconnecting with your body’s wisdom, and helping your nervous system begin to feel calm again.



Through body-mind focused trauma therapy, we’ll work at your pace to help you:


  • Rebuild your sense of self


  • Reconnect with your instincts and intuition


  • Strengthen your boundaries


  • Soften emotional overwhelm


  • Begin to recognise and trust your voice again



You don’t need to have it all figured out.

There’s no “right” place to begin.

Healing can start right here, exactly as you are.


If you're ready to feel more grounded, clear, and whole after the confusion of an abusive dynamic, I’m here to walk beside you.


You are not too much, you are not too late, and you don’t have to do this alone.
