I understand that a traumatic event can constantly trigger thoughts of fear, shock, anger, restlessness, and sometimes horror. This often feels out of control. I will offer support and help on how to understand and manage this
Trauma, when held as energy in the body can bring unwanted reactions to present day events and a feeling of being out of control and helpless. Working with your body to release this energy can help you to move forward in life. I will be able to support you so that you can start to feel less activated and calmer with a new found sense of a lighter and more possible future.
I understand that Trauma can deeply impact one's sense of self and view of the world. My approach to trauma is informed by the work of Janina Fisher, an expert in treating complex trauma and dissociation, utilising her TIST model (trauma informed stabilisation treatment). I also work with the body using principles of Somatic Experiencing and mindfulness. By integrating these perspectives, I provide a holistic approach that addresses both the psychological and physiological manifestations of trauma. Our sessions offer a safe space to explore traumatic memories and their lingering effects, using body-based interventions and cognitive approaches to facilitate healing. The ultimate aim is to help you regain a sense of agency and wholeness, guiding you through the complexities of trauma recovery.
