🕊️ Loneliness Therapy London

Trauma-informed support for chronic loneliness, attachment wounds, and emotional isolation — in person and online

You can be surrounded by people and still feel alone.

You can be capable, caring, high-functioning —
and still carry a quiet ache that never seems to lift.

For many adults, loneliness isn’t about circumstance.

It’s a nervous system pattern shaped early in life.

If connection once felt unsafe, unpredictable, or conditional, your body may have learned:

Stay close.
But don’t fully open.

This is where chronic loneliness forms.

Not because something is wrong with you —
but because your system adapted to survive.

Loneliness therapy helps you feel safe enough to connect again.

Not intellectually.

But in your body.

What Is Chronic Loneliness?

Loneliness isn’t simply “being by yourself.”

It often shows up as:

• feeling unseen even in relationships
• struggling to ask for help
• feeling like a burden when you have needs
• self-reliance that feels exhausting rather than empowering
• emotional numbness or functional freeze
• difficulty trusting closeness
• longing for connection but pulling away when it arrives

Many people describe it as:

“I’m here… but not really here.”

This is often an attachment wound — not a personality trait.

How Loneliness Forms in Childhood & Attachment

Early experiences shape how safe connection feels.

If you grew up with:

• emotional neglect or inconsistency
• absent or overwhelmed caregivers
• criticism, shaming, or rejection
• needing to be “easy” or self-sufficient
• having to manage your feelings alone

your nervous system may have learned:

Don’t need too much.
Don’t depend.
Don’t fully arrive.

As an adult, this can look like independence on the outside —
and isolation on the inside.

This isn’t weakness.

It’s protection.

How Loneliness Therapy Helps

Talking about loneliness isn’t always enough.

Because loneliness isn’t only a thought.

It’s a body state.

My work focuses on helping your nervous system feel safe with connection again through:

• somatic therapy
• trauma-informed hypnotherapy
• inner child healing
• nervous system regulation
• gentle reparenting and attachment repair

Instead of analysing the past endlessly, we create new experiences of safety in the present.

Over time, you may notice:

• feeling more grounded around others
• asking for support without shame
• less emotional shutdown
• more ease in relationships
• a deeper sense of belonging to yourself
• connection that feels natural rather than effortful

Not forced.

Simply felt.

Loneliness Therapy London – In Person & Online

I offer trauma-informed therapy from my private Central London practice, as well as online worldwide via Zoom.

Some clients prefer immersive, in-person sessions.
Others feel safer beginning from home.

Both formats are steady, relational, and equally effective.

Wherever you are, the goal is the same:

to help you feel less alone inside yourself.

Because when you feel safe within, connection with others becomes possible again.

Who This Work Is For

This therapy may be right for you if you:

• feel lonely even in relationships
• struggle with attachment anxiety or avoidance
• people-please or over-function
• feel emotionally numb or disconnected
• grew up feeling unseen or unsupported
• carry grief, heartbreak, or abandonment wounds
• are tired of coping and ready to heal

You don’t need a dramatic story to deserve support.

Quiet pain counts too.
