She also integrates trauma-informed and attachment-focused work to address the emotional impacts of past harm, abuse, or disrupted relationships. These methods emphasise safety, pacing, and understanding interpersonal patterns, which can be especially helpful for those dealing with trauma, abandonment, or attachment difficulties.
