LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Emily Parker

Hi, I'm Emily, a primary school teacher, CPD-accredited Mental Wellbeing Workshop Facilitator, and 1:1 Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Coach.

I specialise in two things that I care about deeply: children's mental health and helping adults heal from narcissistic and emotional abuse. These specialisms come from years working in education watching children communicate their inner world through behaviour and my own personal journey recovering from emotional trauma.

After training in trauma-informed practice and positive psychology, I started supporting the adults around children to feel confident rather than overwhelmed. And after healing from my own experience of emotional trauma, I learned that recovery can't just be conversational. It has to be body-based, compassionate and validating. That's what led me to become a certified trauma-informed coach specialising in narcissistic abuse recovery.

I support people in three ways:

1:1 Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Coaching: a safe, trauma-informed space to rebuild your sense of self at your own pace

Mental Wellbeing Clubs: facilitator-led group sessions, including a general Mental Wellbeing Club and a Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Group, because healing feels less lonely when you're not doing it in isolation

CPD-Accredited Workshops: for professionals, schools, and organisations on children's mental health, trauma-informed practice, and domestic abuse awareness

I'm proud to say this work has been recognised too. I was named New Woman in Business at the Women in Business Awards 2026 and I was am a finalist for the She Inspires Award in the Women in Education category. Both mean a huge amount, not because of the titles, but because they reflect the impact this work is having: for children, for survivors and for the professionals who support them.

"I believe that when adults feel regulated and supported, children benefit too and that real change happens quietly, in safe spaces, one conversation at a time."
