Compassionate, evidence-based counselling for women rebuilding after abuse, grief, loss, and heartbreak — in a space that holds you with care.
"Healing is not a destination — it is the gentle act of returning to yourself."
With over a decade working at the intersection of relational trauma and emotional recovery, I specialize in helping women reclaim their identity, voice, and sense of safety — after abuse, loss, or the quiet devastation of a broken heart.
My practice is built on one conviction: you are not broken. You are a person who has endured extraordinary pain, and you deserve extraordinary care in return.
Every wound is unique. Every healing journey is your own. My services meet you exactly where you are.
Evidence-based EMDR and somatic therapy to safely process and integrate experiences of abuse, violence, or relational trauma.

Explore →Rebuilding self-worth, identity, and hope after the end of a significant relationship — with structured support and clear milestones.
Explore →Deep, one-on-one work to understand your patterns, boundaries, and needs — and build a life that reflects who you truly are.
Explore →Small, facilitated group sessions with women on similar journeys. Shared experience creates a unique and powerful form of healing.
Explore →Secure, private video sessions from the comfort of your own safe space — because healing shouldn't require leaving home.
Explore →My approach is integrative — drawing from the most effective, trauma-informed modalities available, woven together by genuine human care.
Before we process anything, we build the internal and external resources that make healing possible without retraumatisation.
Using EMDR, narrative therapy, and somatic approaches to gently revisit and reprocess what happened at a pace you control.
Rebuilding your relationship with yourself, developing new patterns, and stepping into a future that belongs entirely to you.
"I came in barely able to speak about what happened to me. Two years later, I have a voice, boundaries, and a life I'm genuinely proud of. Dr. Wells didn't just help me survive — she helped me live."
"After my divorce I felt like a ghost in my own life. The grief work we did together was the first time anyone helped me mourn what I'd actually lost — not just the marriage, but the future I thought I'd have."
"I was sceptical of online therapy but the sessions with Dr. Wells were the most present and safe I've ever felt in a therapeutic relationship. She has a rare gift for holding space without judgement."
"The Healing Circle changed everything. Finding other women who truly understood my experience — without explanation, without shame — was something I didn't know I needed until I had it."
"I thought I would never trust again. Dr. Wells patiently helped me understand that the issue was never my capacity to trust — it was learning who is worthy of it. That reframe changed my entire life."
There is no "ready." If part of you is curious about healing — even while the rest of you is scared — that's enough. Our first session is a gentle conversation, not a commitment. You set the pace entirely.
Trauma therapy uses specialised modalities (like EMDR) that work with the nervous system, not just the mind. This allows us to process experiences that talk therapy alone often cannot reach — memories stored in the body, not just the intellect.
Research consistently shows that online therapy is equally effective for most concerns, including trauma. Many clients find it easier to open up from their own safe space, and the flexibility removes barriers to consistent attendance — which is key to progress.
Healing doesn't have a fixed timeline and I won't pretend it does. Some clients feel significant shifts in 8–12 weeks. Others work with me for a year or more. We regularly review your progress together, and you always decide when you've reached what you came for.
Yes. All sessions are strictly confidential, protected by professional ethical codes and applicable law. The only exceptions are the narrow legal requirements around imminent risk of harm — which I will always explain clearly at the outset.
Whether you have questions or you're ready to book — reach out. Every message is read personally, and I respond within 24 hours.
