“Thank you for your outstanding article on trauma-informed content and AI. Just excellent work!” - Kristina Halvorson, CEO & Founder, Button Events and Brain Traffic

As Senior Content Designer and Strategist at Trauma-Informed Content Consulting, I work with communities, support groups and key stakeholders to transform overwhelming information into clear, compassionate guidance for the public, private and charity sectors.

Drawing on 40 years of experience at the intersection of complex systems and human vulnerability, I’ve led national content projects - from Universal Credit to Cancer Research UK - that cut user journeys by up to 70%, improve accessibility, reduce support costs and strengthen trust.

My trauma-informed, vulnerability-aware approach ensures every word respects emotional journeys and cultural sensitivity within strict safeguarding protocols, minimises distress and drives measurable outcomes.

Core services

• Trauma-informed content and service design
  User research and testing, empathy mapping and content audits that reveal emotional triggers and guide sensitive communications


• Complex systems content strategy
  Roadmaps, style guides and governance for government, health and social care programmes.


• AI-assisted workflows (secondary offering)
  Prompt engineering, ethical AI tool integration and governance frameworks to scale empathy-driven content.

Rembrandt Editor

In addition to my content strategy work, I developed Rembrandt Editor, a free prototype tool designed to help writers create trauma-informed, vulnerability-aware digital content. This project is firmly grounded in my expertise in ensuring digital services communicate with empathy and clarity.

In addition to the tool’s sophisticated system-generated content analysis, I offer in-depth human accessibility audits of your content.

Impact highlights
