LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Katie Mc

Katie is a Psychotherapist, Hypnotherapist, Trauma Informed Coach and Narcissistic Abuse Expert and helps female survivors of Domestic Abuse, Narcissistic Abuse and Coercive Control breakthrough the barriers of Trauma, Fear and Anxiety to live an empowered life feeling Validated, Confident and Free.

Katie is also a Founding Brand Partner of the global Mental Wellbeing Company and delivers CPD/CE Accredited Workshops using Trauma Informed Coaching and Positive Psychology to workplaces, public sector organisations and schools across the country.

With over two decades dedicated to therapeutic work with adults and children in settings including NHS, Education, Charity and the Private Sector, and several features in the media for her expertise, Katie transitioned her career focus and now brings her profound expertise to help female survivors of domestic abuse and trauma.

Within her practice she offers one-to-one sessions, group work and training events, all of which can either be accessed face-to-face or online. She works locally, nationally, and internationally to facilitate a deeper level of understanding to be able to help people not only understand and process what has happened, but also understand their own history, and trauma profile to enable them to navigate a way forward. She also works within the body to help calm their nervous system and reduce their cortisol levels to enable a deeper level of healing, as the body remembers so much more than the conscious mind does.

When working with Katie therapeutically, she delves into past experiences, emotions, and traumas, seeking insight, healing, and mental health resolution. Therapy focuses on processing emotions, nurturing coping skills, and resolving historical issues. Conversely, Katie's coaching support is future-oriented and action-driven, assisting in goal setting, identifying strengths, and devising strategies to help navigate forward from abuse.

Alongside therapy and coaching Katie also runs a free and private Facebook group called The Women’s Breakthrough Lounge, which allows women from all over the world to come together to support and validate each other's journey to healing. In here she offers psycho education on Domestic Abuse, Narcissistic Abuse and Coercive Control and offer techniques to helping women to heal themselves after abuse.

Katie is available face-to-face or online for one-to-one Psychotherapy, Coaching and/or Hypnotherapy and she runs multiple courses every year as well as group programmes.

If you would like support to breakthrough your own barriers of Abuse and Trauma, Katie would be more than happy to help.

Meet The CEO & Founder of The Mental Wellbeing Company

Caroline Strawson is a globally recognised Mental Health and Nervous System Educator, Therapist, and Coach.

She is on a mission to revolutionise mental health education.

After hitting rock bottom in her own life due to experiencing domestic abuse, being left in over £70,000/$85,0000 worth of debt and being made homeless, Caroline combined her medical background with a drive and determination to overcome her own mental health challenges and rebuilt herself through nervous system healing, deep trauma work and positive psychology.

Now, she's dedicated to sharing these life-changing tools with the world.

"As a survivor of trauma myself, I know firsthand the impact it can have on every aspect of life.

My journey of healing and resilience inspired me to dedicate my career to helping others navigate their own path to wellbeing.

Through my work as a Trauma-Informed Coach and Therapist, I've seen the transformative power of understanding trauma and the nervous system. It's my mission to make this knowledge accessible to all, creating a ripple effect of healing across generations. When we heal ourselves, we heal the next generation"
