Empowering people through change

Therapeutic Approaches
When it comes to healing from the impacts of trauma, there is no one-size-fits-all. The “best” type is the one that works for you. We offer a range of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including:
- Trauma Informed Stabilisation Treatment
- Somatic Experiencing
- EMDR
- NeuroAffective Touch
- Trauma Informed Cognitive Behaviour Therapy
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
- Schema Focused Therapy
- HeartMath Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback Training
With each of these approaches, you do not have to tell us your ‘trauma story’ if you do not want to. We understand that retelling the story of what happened to you is not necessary for healing to occur and can, in fact, be re-traumatising for some people.
So, rather than delving into the story of what happened to you, we focus more on how what happened to you impacts you in the here and now and on what you can do to change this.
What You Can Expect
Along your journey with us, you can expect to:
- gain an understanding of trauma and the impact that trauma has had on your life
- learn skills to enhance your capacity for self-regulation and improve your overall sense of well being
- learn skills and strategies that can help to reduce trauma related symptoms, such as stress, anxiety and addiction
- develop skills that can help you to be able to identify, meet and better communicate your needs and boundaries in relation to others
- gently process any underlying traumatic events as these arise within sessions
Whilst it is our role is to support and assist you in reaching your personal recovery goals, we cannot guarantee a particular result.
Any results you achieve will be dependent on your own capacity, efforts, commitment, motivation and intent to follow through by practicing the skills learned.
The reality is that trauma recovery work takes time. There are no quick fixes, no matter what anyone might tell you.
