Trauma-Informed Holistic Practitioner | Rooted & Rising

With Zaria Ayesha Umar

Zaria Ayesha Umar

Hello, I’m Zaria Ayesha Umar, a Trauma-Informed Holistic Practitioner and founder of Rooted & Rising. I support people who are ready to reconnect with themselves, restore balance, and create meaningful change through a blend of psychology, holistic therapies, and embodied wellbeing practices.

With over 27 years of professional experience across therapeutic practice, education, coaching, and holistic wellbeing, my work is centred around creating safe, compassionate spaces where people feel heard, understood, and supported.

My journey has been shaped by my background in complementary therapies, psychology, education, and trauma-informed practice. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Complementary Therapies, a PGCE, and I am currently completing an MSc in Psychology of Mental Health and Wellbeing. I have also completed specialist training in trauma-informed practice, childhood trauma, Reiki, sound therapy, somatic movement, and holistic therapies.

I believe healing begins when we feel safe enough to reconnect with ourselves. My approach combines evidence-informed psychological principles with person-centred, humanistic, and holistic techniques to support emotional wellbeing, nervous system regulation, self-awareness, and personal growth.

I do not believe in rushing the healing process. I walk alongside you, creating space for reflection, connection, and transformation at your own pace.

Who I Support

I work with people who may feel:

• Emotionally overwhelmed, stressed, or disconnected from themselves

• Tired from always putting others first

• Lost during times of change or transition

• Ready to reconnect with their confidence, identity, and inner balance

• Interested in holistic wellbeing with a grounded and supportive approach

My work may be especially supportive for those experiencing:

• Stress, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm

• Fatigue and feeling mentally drained

• Life transitions, grief, menopause, or significant changes

• Low mood and reduced confidence

• Sleep difficulties

• Emotional regulation challenges

• Muscle tension and the impact of stress on the body

• A desire for deeper self-understanding and personal growth

Many of the people I support are those who have spent years caring for others and are now ready to create space for themselves.

My Approach

I combine therapeutic and holistic practices to support the connection between mind, body, and emotional wellbeing.

My sessions are personalised around your needs, helping you explore:

• Emotional patterns and life experiences

• Stress responses and nervous system regulation

• Self-awareness and inner connection

• Relaxation, balance, and wellbeing

• Personal growth and resilience

Every session is designed to feel safe, supportive, and tailored to where you are in your journey.
