Restore & Rise
Therapy for Mind, Body and Self
Accredited EMDR & CBT | Integrative, Trauma-Informed Therapy in Preston & Online Across the UK
Welcome to Restore & Rise
A calm, compassionate space for healing.
Whether you’re struggling with current difficulties such as anxiety, low self-esteem or intrusive thoughts, or carrying the impact of painful experiences from the past, therapy can help you find relief and a new way forward.
Together we can draw on therapies such as EMDR, CBT, IFS (parts work), somatic awareness and iRest Yoga Nidra, always at a pace that feels safe. My aim is to support you in reconnecting with yourself, calming your system, and discovering new possibilities for living with greater ease.
Life can sometimes feel heavy, confusing, or quietly overwhelming. You may be navigating anxiety, low mood, unresolved trauma, or patterns that no longer feel helpful — even if you can’t quite name what’s wrong. Therapy offers a space to slow down and make sense of what you’re carrying.
At Restore & Rise, our work together is paced and compassionate, grounded in approaches that support both the mind and nervous system — always at a rhythm that feels manageable for you.
There is a place within you that already knows how to heal — not by force, but by being met.
How We Can Work Together
At Restore & Rise, I offer integrative, trauma-informed therapy shaped around your needs and readiness. Each approach can be adapted thoughtfully, with care for your nervous system and your pace.
You can explore the different ways we might work together below.
EMDR Therapy
A structured, evidence-based approach that helps the brain process and integrate distressing or traumatic experiences, allowing the past to feel less present and overwhelming.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
A collaborative and practical therapy that supports you to understand patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaviour — and develop tools to respond differently when you feel stuck.

iRest Yoga Nidra
A trauma-sensitive guided meditation practice that supports nervous system regulation, emotional integration, and deep restorative rest.

What I Can Help With
Clients often come to me with:
-
Trauma and difficult past experiences, including PTSD and complex trauma
-
Anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or intrusive and obsessive thinking
-
Low mood, self-criticism, shame, or patterns that feel hard to shift
-
A longing to reconnect with themselves gently and safely
You don’t need a diagnosis or a clear label to begin. If something feels unresolved or heavy, therapy can offer a steady space to explore it.
Sessions are available in person in Preston, Lancashire and online across the UK.
