Stop your past screwing up your present
You’ve upgraded your wine, your wardrobe, and your postcode.
And it still feels like something’s missing.
It’s not you.
Learn what’s really holding you back.
You’re fine…
Only you’re still googling 'what’s wrong with me?'
Because every shitty day feels like a disaster,
every snarky email from your boss plays on repeat,
and everywhere you go you’re still scared that you’re just not good enough.
In many ways, you’ve made it.
You swapped your Jacob’s Creek for Sancerre.
You have a reasonably interesting job and a significant other who loves you enough to traipse round shrines in Kamakura and look interested.
You have friends who indulge your brunch habits (and wait for you to take photos first).
Your Ocado shop is worlds away from the crispy pancakes and super noodles you grew up on.
No orange Panda Pops for you.
It’s San Pellegrino now, darling.
Your life is pretty good and anyone without access to your phone would be fooled.
But your stupidly long screen time, the multiple therapists you follow on IG, the half-finished self-help books would tell a different story.
(The less said about 'Let Them', the better.)
You’ve dabbled in trauma podcasts, cold water plunges, meditation retreats, yoga and breathwork.
You tell yourself 'you’re fine' but it’s a mantra you don’t really believe.
So your family are 'complicated'. Isn’t everybody’s?
Other people had it far worse, am I right?
You didn’t go hungry.
You had piano lessons, holidays, plenty to eat.
Move along, nothing to see here.
No beatings.
No going to bed hungry.
No holes in your clothes.
And yet it’s been easier to upgrade your life than how you feel about yourself.
Inside you still feel like a fraud.
Like you’re trying to hide a dark secret.
You still don’t feel like a grown-up.
You still feel lost.
You still feel like something is missing.
You’re still afraid that nobody really likes you.
Anyway, you’re fine now.
(Except when you’re not.)
So what now?
What do you actually do about it?
You don’t need another podcast, another cold plunge, or another retreat. What you need is a map, a way to see these patterns clearly, understand what’s running your life, and take the first steps towards peace.
Hi, I’m Sarah!
I’m a UKCP registered Psychotherapist with a Masters level training in Psychotherapy and I’ve spent the last 15 years helping people unsure of their trauma status, recover from childhood trauma.
I love working with the ‘I should be smart enough to have figured this out by myself’ people who are somewhat suspicious of therapists (having had at least 3 who did basically nothing).
They tell themselves it wasn’t really that bad because they were not beaten on a daily basis and did indeed go on multiple holidays as a child, while simultaneously wondering whether the black hole inside them is ever going to go away.
I specialise in the people who think but don’t feel, minimise their past like you might win prizes, and privately panic that they’re the only ones who still feel like a child inside.
And what I love most is helping them see:
where they’re stuck
why they’re stuck
and exactly what to do next
Clear, structured guidance not vague reassurance and reflective nodding.
Because honestly?
Trying to ‘figure it out on your own’ is what’s already cost you decades of confusion and self-blame.
