The Heart Behind Embody

Hiya, I’m Gabby - Founding Director of Embody Recovery.

Embody was born from my own experience navigating the complex, messy, and turbulent process of trauma recovery. After living through multiple rounds of trauma, reflecting, and rebuilding, I learnt the hard way what truly mattered.

By working with professional therapists, online coaches, and an incredible in-person PT, I developed a deep, holistic understanding of how trauma weaves itself through the mind, the body and everyday life.

I’ve lived it. I’ve studied it. I’ve embodied it.

Drawing on this personal and professional journey, I founded Embody Recovery to create the kind of recovery space I needed, but that didn’t exist. One that combines genuine compassion, practical tools, and honestly just a break from the struggle. A place that makes recovery feel like a radical act of self-celebration — not another impossible standard to meet.

As a founder, I bring firsthand understanding of the journey, but also the resilience, empathy and leadership skills needed to challenge traditional narratives and build a human-first, welcoming alternative. I’m committed to creating a recovery experience that is not only inviting and transformative, but designed to empower individuals to reclaim their lives on their own terms.

Wherever you’re at - just starting, starting over, or feeling too wobbly to start - you belong here. Recovery is messy, magical and totally worth it.

Let’s do this together!
