LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Emma Halliwell

Emma Halliwell is a certified Trauma-Informed Coach, Master Practitioner Divorce Coach (specialising in domestic abuse), and Narcissistic Abuse Specialist. With personal experience navigating a high-conflict and litigious divorce, spending over seven years in family court, she fought complex battles involving finances, child arrangements, and residency, ultimately securing her children’s right to live with her. This journey ignited her passion to learn about and become an expert in understanding the true impact of trauma on our nervous systems and subsequently on our physical and mental health.

Her journey to become a Certified Trauma Informed Coach, and now working full time in this field, has resulted in her witnessing, on a daily basis, the profound life-altering impact that comes from uncovering the hidden wounds of trauma and learning to regulate and understand this.

Her mission is to share and spread this knowledge thus creating safer, more compassionate spaces where individuals and communities can heal and thrive. 

As a partner with The Mental Wellbeing Company, Emma will combine 1-2-1 and group trauma-informed coaching, Brainspotting, hypnotherapy and professional workshops to provide a holistic support system for clients. She is committed to bringing together trauma informed practices and positive psychology to make it accessible to all.

As a Certified Trauma Informed Coach through The Mental Wellbeing Company, she has completed the ICF and CPD accredited Somatic Trauma Informed Coaching Certification and is part of the Trauma Informed Professional Network, which is the fastest growing community of trauma informed professionals in the world. With extensive high level training and certification, she brings the power of trauma-informed practices to one-on-one sessions and transformative workshops, helping individuals build clarity, control, and emotional resilience while supporting clients to prioritise the mental health and wellbeing of themselves, their teams and or students.

When she’s not working or balancing life as a single mother to her two daughters, Emma enjoys a peaceful moment by the sea, glass of bubbles in hand, with a smile on her face.
