LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Katie O'Rourke

Katie O’Rourke is a mum of two, business owner and Somatic Trauma Informed Coach and RTT Therapist.

She is passionate about helping women overcome blocks that are holding them back from being their true self and living their best life. She specialises in helping women with anxiety and issues with confidence, self-esteem, health and weight. Prior to working as a Therapist and Somatic Coach, Katie worked as a Nutrition and Fitness Coach and became fascinated with the deeper reasons that her clients were struggling to reach their goals.

She now combines RTT with Somatic Trauma Informed Coaching and Mind Body Eating Coaching to help transform women’s relationships with themselves. Katie’s passion comes from her own lived experience of anxiety, panic attacks, eating disorders, low self-worth and grief. She worked with a psychotherapist for many years, but it was only when she started working with a therapist who also combined therapy with Internal Family Systems and Somatic work, that Katie experienced profound shifts. Training as a Somatic Trauma Informed Coach, which combines both these life-changing modalities, has enabled Katie to support her clients to the fullest of her abilities.

Joining the Mental Wellbeing Company as a Brand Ambassador is the natural next step for Katie, to be able to educate and inspire, and reach more people with this incredible work.
