Hi, I'm Abbie Dawson, A Certified Somatic Trauma Informed Coach & Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Specialist. I support mothers who are experiencing problems with co-parenting with their abusers, where on the outside it may look like they are coping but underneath they are scared, frustrated, angry and confused. This work is deeply personal to me because there was a time when I was co-parenting with my abusive ex and despite doing what I thought I was supposed to do, nothing was truly changing for me. What I came to understand is that trauma does not live in the mind alone, it lives in the body, which means you cannot always think your way out of how you feel, and this was the turning point that led me to this work.

Now, my approach is grounded in trauma-informed, nervous system-led practice, where the focus is not on fixing you, but on helping you build the capacity to cope in the presence of stress, struggle and challenge, rather than waiting for life to feel easier.

Through my work, I support mothers to better understand what is happening in their body, and their kids bodies, so you feel more in control of your responses and begin to experience change in a way that feels safe, realistic and sustainable. My one-to-one session, The Empowered Mother, is designed for people who are struggling to co-parent, and who are ready to begin understanding themselves on a deeper level while learning how to support there nervous system in every day life. If you are looking for a space that is compassionate, trauma-informed and grounded in real understanding, this is here to support you.
