99. Why Your Relationships Change When You Start Healing
2026/09/20
In this episode, I'm talking about why some relationships deepen, why others fall away, and why relational healing isn’t always about setting boundaries or cutting people off. We explore intimacy, vulnerability, repair, self trust and learning how to stay connected to yourself while being connected to someone else.

98. The Fawn Response & Appeasement
2026/09/13
In this episode, we explore the fawn response and why agreement doesn’t always mean consent. We unpack how fawning and appeasement can become survival strategies, how power dynamics shape them, and what healing can look like when it comes to saying no, tolerating tension, and staying connected to yourself.
Article: When Agreement is Not Consent. Appeasement is the trauma response no one is talking about.

97. Don't Ignore The Basics
2026/09/06
This week on Healing CPTSD, we explore the foundations of healing from complex trauma and why the basics matter. We unpack sleep, movement, nourishment, connection, nature, and meaning, and how trauma can disconnect us from our body’s needs. We also look at why therapy is only one part of healing and how small changes can support recovery.

96. The Nervous System Trap: When Healing Becomes Another Thing to Achieve
2026/08/30
This week, we explore the nervous system regulation trap: when healing becomes another productivity project. We unpack why being regulated all the time was never the goal, how self-awareness can become hypervigilance, and when regulation tools become another form of avoidance. We also look at systemic stress and what a more human approach to healing can look like: flexibility, capacity, embodiment, and actually living your life.

95. Inside The Therapy Session: What I Actually Help Clients With
2026/08/23
In this episode, we explore what trauma therapy actually looks like beyond simply talking about your childhood. We unpack the three core parts of the healing process: processing past experiences with safety and compassion, moving from insight into embodied healing through nervous system regulation, and reconnecting with who you are beyond survival mode.

94. Who My Work Is For + How To Know You're Ready For Therapy
2026/08/16
In this episode, we explore how to know if you're ready for therapy, what makes a therapeutic relationship the right fit, and how trauma-informed therapy helps you move beyond insight into lasting healing. I also share who I tend to work with, who my approach isn't for, and what you can expect from working together.

93. Why You're Not Seeing Progress In Therapy
2026/08/09
In this episode, we explore why you can spend months or even years in therapy and still feel stuck, the seven most common reasons healing can plateau, how to recognise when insight has become your comfort zone, why real change happens through practice and integration between sessions, and what meaningful progress in trauma recovery actually looks like.

92. Self-Awareness Alone Isn't Enough (The Missing Pieces To Your Healing)
2026/08/02
In this episode, we explore why self-awareness is only the beginning of trauma healing, why understanding your patterns doesn't automatically change them, and how embodiment and integration help you finally create lasting change. We unpack why you can know exactly why you react the way you do and still feel stuck in the same patterns, how awareness can sometimes become another survival strategy, and what it really takes to create lasting change in your nervous system.

91. Not Seeking Support Is Costing You Your Life
2026/07/26
In this episode of Healing CPTSD, we'll be talking about why so many trauma survivors struggle to ask for help and how hyper-independence, avoidance, and the fear of opening up can keep us stuck in survival mode. We also explore why some people have been hurt in therapy, the importance of trauma-informed support, and what becomes possible when healing happens through safety, relationship, and learning to receive help.

90. Why High Functioning Trauma Is So Hard To Spot
2026/07/19
In this episode of Healing CPTSD, we'll be talking about high-functioning trauma, why so many trauma survivors look like they have it all together while feeling disconnected, exhausted, or numb inside, and how survival mode can hide behind traits like independence, productivity, and people pleasing. We explore how trauma shapes our identity, why healing isn't about becoming a perfect version of yourself, and how embodiment, boundaries, rest, and self-connection can help you start landing back in your life again.

89. Agency: Is Life Happening To You or For You?
2026/06/14
In this episode, we'll explore the difference between blame and responsibility, and how trauma can leave us feeling powerless, stuck, frozen, or disconnected from our own sense of agency (minus the toxic positivity or denial of the very real systems and circumstances that shape our lives). And of course, we'll talk about the gradual process of reclaiming your ability to participate in your own life again after trauma.

88. Overfunctioning In Relationships
2026/06/07
In this week’s episode of Healing CPTSD, we'll be talking about over functioning in relationships – why trauma survivors often become the caretakers, fixers, and emotional managers, and how these patterns quietly disconnect us from our own needs. We explore how childhood trauma conditions us to associate love with usefulness, emotional labour, hypervigilance, and self abandonment – but most importantly, how we can start to break free from these patterns and start cultivating reciprocal relationships.

87. Rest As Resistance
2026/05/31
This episode of Healing CPTSD explores why so many trauma survivors struggle to slow down, why rest can feel deeply uncomfortable for the nervous system, and how our worth becomes tied to productivity inside systems that profit from our exhaustion. We talk about trauma, hypervigilance, burnout, late stage capitalism, and the ways we have been conditioned to override our body’s natural rhythms. This conversation is an invitation to reconnect with rest as something deeply human, necessary, and healing.

86. Purpose: Why So Many of Us Feel Lost
2026/05/24
Feeling lost? In this episode, we'll be talking about purpose, identity, and why so many trauma survivors feel disconnected from direction, meaning, and themselves. We unpack the pressure to tie purpose to productivity, success, or career achievement, and why healing often creates the capacity to reconnect with curiosity, creativity, play, and possibility again. This conversation is a gentle reminder that purpose does not have to be one grand calling! It can evolve across different seasons of life, and sometimes healing itself is the purpose.
