Selina Bodycombe-Jones
"I am a psychologist, educator,
and survivor. My work is grounded in both professional expertise and
lived experience, with a strong commitment to supporting survivors and
their children to move forward safely
and at their own pace.
I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology (Distinction) and a Master’s degree in Educational Practice, and have
experience across educational, research, and clinical psychology. I work therapeutically with children and young people, supporting them with tools and strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and trauma. This work is therapeutic in nature but is not formal clinical therapy.
I also facilitate anxiety support groups for children and their parents. I also
have a background in working with EBSA (emotional based school avoidance) children and neurodivergent children of all ages.
My training includes being a
trauma-informed practitioner, CBT for self-esteem through the Oxford Cognitive Therapy Centre, Level 2 domestic abuse training with Threshold, enabling me to work directly with survivors. I have worked within the Neurodevelopmental Unit at Cardiff University’s Psychology Department and I deliver training on coercive control and post-separation abuse. I also share my own survivor story to educate, challenge harmful narratives, and advocate for safer, more informed responses to abuse."

Through her personal resilience and professional expertise, Emma has become one of the UK’s leading voices in the field of trauma recovery and coercive control. She has supported numerous survivors and contributed to several successful prosecutions through her work at My Trauma Therapy Ltd, where she helps clients rebuild their identity, confidence, and boundaries after abuse.
Emma is also in partnership with The Mental Wellbeing Company, delivering trauma-informed and positive psychology workshops across schools, workplaces, public sector organisations, and charities.
In addition to her clinical and educational work, Emma is the founder of the Victims of Narcissistic Abuse Support Group (MyNARA) — a thriving online community with more than 35,000 members and over 80,000 social media followers.
