Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) pose significant mental health challenges for clients. In the therapeutic setting, the psychologist provides a safe and supportive space for individuals to embark on their journey of healing from traumatic experiences. Drawing from evidence-based therapeutic approaches, clients are guided through the complicated landscape of trauma and PTSD, fostering emotional recovery and resilience. This therapeutic journey delves into past attachment issues, childhood experiences, and the environmental factors of the past using schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Trauma Focussed approaches, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs. The central focus is on reconnecting with the vulnerable inner child by exploring trauma incidents, past or present, and unraveling the maladaptive beliefs and coping mechanisms that developed as a result of these traumatic wounds. The aim is to support clients to regain control over their lives, cultivate healthier coping mechanisms for their inner trauma wounds, and rediscover inner peace.

PELLA Wellness.
Registered Psychotherapist, Amanda Guilfoyle. M.Gestalt T. B.SocSci (Couns)
As a trauma informed therapist I hold your experience gently and work at a pace that is suitable for you to move through your deepest , darkest and most shattering experiences. I use psycho education to keep you informed about the changes in the brain from trauma. Using a combination of Gestalt therapy , Poly vagal theory and other modalities which might suit your particular experience you are taught new ways to navigate triggers and self regulate. With the right support you may be able to integrate what has happened to you rather than the event continually getting in the way of how you would like to be .

Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have an extensive background in trauma through my work with young people & adults around sexual abuse/assault, domestic violence & childhood trauma/neglect. My trauma informed practice gives me the basis for understanding & supporting people through trauma. My experience has helped me to understand that trauma is a very unique & individualized experience. For some people, trauma can appear small or unimportant (like a car accident) however to me, all trauma is experienced by the individual as traumatic for them, so whether it is perceived by others as small or unimportant it is important, & valid, for the person for whom the experience was traumatic. I have found that this understanding has been vital in my trauma work & has helped me to support people with all types of trauma. Building the therapeutic relationship, again, is important in this work to create a collaborative, safe & comfortable environment for my clients to share & heal.
