LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Tracey Young

🌟 Hi, I’m Tracey! 🌟

I’m a wife, mum, and proud Nanna to three amazing grandsons. I’ve worked as a Social Worker for over 17 years, and I’m also an NLP Practitioner and Somatic Trauma Informed Coach.

My journey has not been easy and has been deeply personal and challenging. I experienced childhood trauma, entered an abusive relationship, survived sexual harm, and spent years struggling with low self-worth and emotional pain. I was on a road of self-destruction —often feeling angry, anxious, depressed, and disconnected from others. I coped by people-pleasing, procrastinating, isolating myself, and expressing pain through tears, it was exhausting!

These unresolved experiences eventually impacted my physical health, contributing to conditions like type 2 diabetes, fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, and a past battle with breast cancer.

Eventually, I reached a turning point. I wanted to feel better and understand why I felt and behaved the way I did. That’s when I began my healing journey—facing my past and learning how childhood trauma shapes our adult lives.

I’ve worked hard to heal, grow, and rediscover my worth and now I’m passionate about helping others do the same. I share my story to show that healing is possible, and that you can feel good about yourself again.

If you’re on a journey of healing, self-discovery, or simply want to understand how trauma shapes our lives—stick around. You’re not alone, and there is always hope.
