How Breast Cancer Changed My Approach to Healing...
I am Trudie, a rehabilitation professional of over 20 years and someone who has personally navigated life after a breast cancer diagnosis.
In 2022, following surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy for invasive ductile carcinoma, I found myself at the end of treatment but unsure how to rebuild my strength, confidence and sense of self.
Experiencing the physical and emotional impact first hand changed the direction of my work.
Today, I combine my clinical background with lived experience to offer compassionate, cancer aware holistic therapy for those navigating recovery after breast cancer.
My approach is gentle, evidence informed and deeply respectful of everything your body has been through.
You are not just a patient here. You are a whole person, deserving of ongoing support.
A Gentler Approach to Breast Cancer Recovery
If you are here, you may be navigating life after a breast cancer diagnosis and searching for gentle, ongoing support.
Perhaps treatment has finished, yet you are still
living with fatigue, anxiety, physical sensitivity or a quiet sense of disconnection from your body.
You are not alone in that. This practice offers compassionate holistic therapy after breast cancer, designed to support your emotional wellbeing, nervous system and long term recovery.
Here, you can slow down, be truly listened to, and receive specialist cancer aware care that honours everything you have been through.

My Holistic Approach to Breast Cancer Recovery
Every woman's experience of breast cancer is different, so your support should be too.
My approach is trauma-aware, cancer-informed and shaped by both clinical expertise and lived experience. Together, we'll work at a pace that feels right for you, with space to pause, reflect and reconnect with yourself.
-
Every session begins with a conversation.
-
What do you need today?
-
What feels safe?
-
What would help you most right now?
Whether we're using EFT tapping, meditation, breathwork or other holistic therapies, your body and your experience guide the session.
There is no pressure, no expectation and no one-size-fits-all approach.
Just compassionate, personalised support to help you move forward with confidence after breast cancer.
Your body sets the pace. I'll walk alongside you.
My Vision to Support Women After Breast Cancer
My vision is to ensure that no woman feels she has to navigate life after breast cancer alone.
I want to create a space where women feel listened to, understood and supported as they rebuild confidence, reconnect with themselves and move forward at their own pace.
Through:
-
Individual holistic therapy sessions
-
Weekly meditation and wellbeing groups
-
Practical tools for reflection and self-care
-
A calm, welcoming environment where there is no pressure to "be positive"
Because recovery doesn't end when treatment does, and every woman deserves support that honours both her physical and emotional wellbeing.
A place where renewal feels possible, even if it begins with the smallest step.
