Meet Julia Neesam

Your Certified Trauma Informed Coach

In my journey as a Certified Trauma Informed Coach and Psychotherapist, I've witnessed the profound, life-altering impact that comes from uncovering the hidden wounds of trauma and learning to regulate and understand the nervous system.

I have worked as a cbt therapist for over 15 years within the NHS and privately and have seen how trauma from the past can hugely impact the life you lead now. I have helped thousands of people to overcome their difficulties in group work and one to ones.

My mission is to spread this knowledge in Hertfordshire and worldwide, creating safer, more compassionate spaces where individuals and communities can heal and thrive.

Through my partnership with The Mental Wellbeing Company, I'm 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, I’ve completed the ICF and CPD accredited Somatic Trauma Informed Coaching Certification and am part of the Trauma Informed Professional Network, which is the fastest growing community of trauma informed professionals in the world.

This high-level certification has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to deliver transformative workshops and 1:1 coaching sessions that prioritise the mental health and wellbeing of your team, your students or yourself.
