I’m Tilly. I am a trauma-informed doula and a person-centred psychotherapist.
I offer therapy in the Forth Valley (near Stirling) and online across the UK. I also offer birth and postnatal doula support within 30 miles of G63.
I support women, birthing people and families during pregnancy, birth and the early weeks after birth. I also offer therapy for people affected by trauma, abuse and difficult life experiences.
I have a particular focus on supporting women recovering from domestic abuse, coercive control and post-separation abuse. I also work with anxiety, low mood, stress, burnout, relationship difficulties and life changes.
How I work
Whether in therapy or in doula support, I offer a calm, non-judgemental space where you can slow down and feel listened to. My approach is guided by what you bring and what you need, rather than a fixed model or agenda.
Being trauma-informed means I pay attention to safety, consent, boundaries and pacing. There is no expectation to share more than feels manageable. I work in a way that prioritises emotional safety and respects your autonomy.
In my doula work, I offer emotional, practical and informational support during pregnancy, birth and the early postnatal period. I support a range of birth experiences, including home birth, hospital birth, induction and caesarean birth. I also support when plans change. My role as a doula is non-clinical. I do not provide medical care or give medical advice. I work alongside your midwife, doctor and wider care team.
Experience
Alongside private practice, I work within a domestic abuse service, providing individual therapy and group therapeutic support.
