About Me

I've spent years working closely with parents as a parent coach, witnessing the challenges they faced - not just in their relationships with their children, but within themselves. While many initially sought support to help their children, it often became clear that their own struggles; such as anxiety, rage, and a sense of hopelessness were rooted in unresolved childhood trauma. 

​

My work as a parent coach expanded rapidly during the pandemic, even as I was navigating the challenges of solo parenting my two young daughters, then just 3 and 5 years old. In the midst of that intense period, I went through a traumatic experience that led me to discover Somatic Experiencing® (SE). Within just a few sessions, I began to experience profound shifts in my nervous system and emotional well-being. Through my own healing journey, I felt a deep calling to train as a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner so I could bring this powerful work to my clients.

​

As I began offering Somatic Experiencing® to my clients, it became clear that this work was needed by more than just parents everyone can benefit from nervous system support. Over the past decade, I've experienced various healing modalities, including psychotherapy, EMDR, and inner child work, but Somatic Experiencing has been the most transformative therapy I've encountered.

Connecting with Your Emotions and Finding Inner Peace

"Working with Fiona was a pleasure. She helped us to understand how we should communicate with our son, how we should hold space for his feelings, remain calm when he has tantrums and always show unconditional love. The journey introduced me to the concept of somatic experiencing as well as reflecting on the parenting my family gave me and how some of the negative aspects are easy to fall into and repeat. Truly life changing."

"Working with Fiona has been such a wonderful experience, I feel like I’ve entered a new world of self discovery and its all thanks to her that I am on this journey now. I felt so comfortable in her warm and kind presence and it was so validating to have someone listen to me with no judgement. I never knew anything about the nervous system and learning from her has changed how I approach everything, not just parenting but in all aspects of my life. I feel so much more confident in my abilities as a parent and learned so much from her. I’m eternally grateful for all the support and guidance she’s given me and I feel so lucky that I found her!"

About

Hi, I'm Fiona Ng

I’m a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner (Trainee, Year 3 to be fully qualified June 2025) based in Newcastle upon Tyne, where I live with my two daughters and our fluffy white cat, Fairy.

​

My work is rooted in the belief that healing begins with the nervous system. I’ve spent over five years supporting individuals and couples in one-to-one settings, drawing from a wide range of approaches including Positive Parenting, Compassionate Inquiry (developed by Dr. Gabor Maté), life coaching, and NLP. I’m also a certified Parenting Coach through the Jai Institute of Parenting and a trained Positive Parenting workshop facilitator.

​

Over the years, I’ve witnessed how struggles in parenting often point to deeper unmet needs and unprocessed trauma. Many of the people I work with carry stressors they may not even recognise—attachment wounds, complex PTSD, emotional neglect, burnout, grief, or shame. These unresolved experiences can quietly shape the way we relate to ourselves and others, and keep us feeling stuck.

​

My approach supports clients in gently exploring these layers through body-based awareness, helping them reconnect with their innate capacity for regulation, resilience, and aliveness. Whether you're a parent or simply someone seeking deeper healing, I offer a compassionate space to explore what’s underneath the surface and move toward meaningful change.

​

* I work online on zoom and also work one day a week from Select Psychology in Tynemouth, North Tyneside.
