You’re free from your nex…

But not from how he made you feel about yourself.

You’ve already done the hardest part – you left.
But you’re still replaying everything, wondering if you were the problem, and terrified you’ll pick another one just like him.

If you’re thinking, “I can’t believe I was so stupid to stay so long”. 
If regular breakup advice isn’t cutting it, or you’re drained from explaining to friends that no, you’re not “over it yet”…
I get it. Because six years ago, I was stuck, googling my symptoms and frustrations as to why I hadn’t moved the fuck on yet! And wondering why all the usual rebound advice wasn’t fixing the mess I’d become!
The thing is… typical breakup advice doesn’t work when you’re healing from abuse AND a breakup…

Hey, I’m Laura 👋

I help women who’ve escaped narcissistic relationships, move away from their anxious thoughts and reconnect with their feelings. So they can feel calm, confident, and in control without the constant self-doubt.

Six years ago, my ex left me right after breaking my elbow (yes, the timing was 👌)! I took our planned trip to Bali solo, moved continents, and spent buckets of money on therapy trying to understand what the heck just happened to me…

But I still felt like a wreck. Anxious, always close to tears and convinced I’d somehow pick another narcissist – because clearly, my judgment was fucking terrible!

Then I discovered something that finally helped: teaching my body to regulate my emotions. Through somatic work that rewired my nervous system’s panic responses.

Today, I’m in a healthy 6-year relationship (with someone who’s never once told me I’m “overreacting”). And I help women like you, discover what I wish I’d known sooner:

You can’t “just move on” until your body learns how to as well!

What my
clients say

“I was feeling powerless, tense and drained in some of my relationships until I had a coaching session with Laura. She listened with warmth, compassion and empathy to my dilemma then helped me recognise where and how I could set boundaries.”

– Donna

“I absolutely loved working with Laura. So kind, warm and non judgemental. She really helped me work on my body based approaches to boundary setting and self- advocacy. Would highly recommend.”

– Natalie

“Laura is passionate about her work, cares about her clients, and thoughtfully approaches each session. During the past 12 years I have worked with many coaches and therapists and Laura has been one of my absolute favourites!”

– Samantha

Most advice about confidence focuses on mindset.

But it’s your nervous system that actually shapes it.

You see…

Your brain has learned that asserting your needs is too risky for you. Because you’ve been told countless time that you’re “overreacting”, or “too much” or “too sensitive” for communicating them.

So now, when you try to voice a need or decline an event, your body remembers every time it wasn’t safe to do so. And it communicates that through sensations, like a wave of dread or a churning stomach.

That internal resistance is your biology protecting you, but with out-of-date information that needs refreshing.
Which is what I can help you with. So your nervous system no longer confuses self-respect with threat.

Because when your body finally feels safe being authentically you, confidence stops being something you chase. And starts being something you naturally embody.

You don’t need to try harder — you need to feel safer.

Somatic coaching helps you bridge the gap between knowing your worth and feeling confident to live it.

You’ve probably tried it all:

✔️Months of no contact
✔️Removed every trigger tied to your ex (even their baggy hoody you loved wearing)
✔️Devoured all of Dr Ramani’s content
✔️Listened to so many other survivors stories (yet you still find yourself questioning if you made it all up)?
✔️Taken your bestie’s “helpful” advice to get back out there (thank you Tinder for the creepy experience)!
✔️Chewed your therapists ear off so much, that even you’re bored of hearing about your ex!

But none of it’s “fixed you” yet, and that’s because: Your body hasn’t even come into the equation yet. And when someone points this out to you, it’s like “d’uh, why didn’t I think of that?” (Don’t worry, I was exactly the same)!

Which is why I trained to become a somatic trauma informed coach and a narcissistic abuse specialist. So I could give you your “aha” moment. And share the joy of you feeling the difference it’ll make to your life, like it did mine.

Together, we use simple, body-based techniques that help you:

🟢 Shift from understanding what you want, to feeling safe enough to follow through
🟡 Trust your gut instincts – because they were right all along
🟣 Stop over-explaining every decision (like with those long WhatsApp essays your mate doesn’t even read)!
🟠 Feel worthy of having standards – without the guilt hangover
🔵 Believe you deserve better and feel it.

And who knows, one day you might even laugh about the time you were love-bombed into a helicopter ride (ask me how I know)!

You don’t have to figure this out alone like I did.
