When you’re healing from an abusive relationship, finding what might help can feel overwhelming, especially when your body is still on edge.

This page brings together a curated collection of resources, insights, research, tools, and comfort-based products, that have supported me and others during healing. Everything here is offered as an option, not a solution. Not everything will resonate, and what helps may change over time.

Many of the items here focus on gentle support: understanding trauma responses, reducing hypervigilance, and creating small moments of safety or comfort. I’ve included resources I wish I’d had when emotional regulation felt difficult and rest didn’t come easily, from knowledge and practices to simple self-soothing supports that helped my body learn safety again.

You can also join the fortnightly newsletter to receive updates when new resources are added, no pressure, and you can unsubscribe at any time.
