I would wish for every person to be able to experience pregnancy and birth with nothing but positivity.
That’s the dream. But it isn’t always the reality for everyone. Memories of pregnancy and birth last a lifetime, but negative or traumatic memories can impact on physical, mental and emotional health. You don’t have to keep struggling to cope with these difficult emotions.
The 3 Step Rewind technique is a way to gently and safely move through your experience so you can look ahead to the future with confidence.
What is Birth Trauma....
Birth trauma could come from a single event, or a combination of things that took place during pregnancy, birth or postnatally. Feeling out of control or unheard. Being fearful for your or your baby’s welfare. Being treated unkindly or feeling there was an imbalance of power.
​
This can all contribute to making your experience feel traumatic. Your birth might seem positive to someone else, but perhaps you feel very differently. It is not for anyone else to judge. How you feel about the experience is what matters.
It is extremely normal to be affected by experiences such as these. In many cases it is possible to process what happened and move on without a deeper impact. However, sometimes this doesn’t happen and feelings of anxiety, hypervigilence and other symptoms of birth trauma remain.
Birth Trauma Healing Today
HOW DOES IT WORK...
The Birth Trauma Healing technique is simple but effective, it helps moves you through your past traumatic experience. You will understand its impact on your life, before looking ahead to a future without these difficult emotions. It uses gentle NLP techniques alongside deep relaxation to release and neutralise the difficult feelings attached to your experience. Your brain can process the memory in a safe environment, without the triggering emotions that are associated with it. In the majority of cases people report a significant diminishing or complete eradication of symptoms and difficult feelings.
If talking about the experience makes you feel uncomfortable then don’t worry.
​
I don’t need to know your story!
The sessions can be content free. As long as your memory of the experience is there, I can guide you through the process. You are in control every step of the way. This process is still effective years after the event. If the triggering feelings and traumatic symptoms are still there, then the process is helpful in releasing them.
WHAT DO THE SESSIONS INVOLVE?
The 3 Step Rewind technique is made up of 3 sessions that vary in length according to your personal needs.
Each session is completely tailored to you and I would recommend at least a few days to a week between each session.
Session 1:
I will listen to your story, if you feel comfortable telling it, and establish how it is affecting your life now. Together we will build a picture of what you would like for the future and what you would like to experience with your symptoms lifted. I will then take you through a guided relaxation and provide you with a recording of this to listen to regularly before session 2.
Session 2:
We will do the rewind process. I will ease you into a state of relaxation before guiding you through remembering the event in a specific way. You will be able to remain calm and feeling completely safe and secure throughout.
Session 3:
I will check in with how you have been since session 2 and give you the opportunity to describe any changes that have taken place. We will then focus on visualising the future and building your confidence in moving forward.
Sessions take place online from the comfort of your own home or at the clinic.
I only take a few clients each month so if you want to take steps towards positive future reach out today and we can arrange a FREE Consultation.

Mel,
After speaking to Donna I found out a bit more about the birth trauma rewind sessions and I knew it was something that could only help me. I was right.
At the start of this pregnancy I was having panic attacks, flashbacks and waking up in a cold sweat thinking about how this birth could be like my first born's.
Working through the event of his birth and what happened, and working with the memories and emotions surrounding this, has really helped me to process how I was feeling. This, with the Hypnobirthing course, has helped me to prepare for the upcoming birth and instead of feeling a blind panic I am writing this feeling calm, excited, empowered and in control. I know if things go to plan, that's amazing, and if they don't I will have the tools I need to respond.
Lisa,
I can not recommend Donna enough!!
She was just what I need after having a difficult time trying to conceive my 1st baby. The journey was tough but my doctor recommended I reach out for help. I'm so glade I found Donna, she is a great listener.
She helped me move forward and let go of the hurt & birth trauma I was caring. I really enjoyed working with her, she has a relaxed way about her that you feel like you are catching up with a friend.
Because of this I found it really easy to talk to Donna. If you are looking for way to care for yourself, remove birth trauma and help you move forward then i highly recommend you book with Donna.
