Sometimes human beings are faced with truly horrible situations: threat, a fear of death, or witnessing such events. A normal response to these situations is severe psychological disturbance. However, such disturbance usually remits within weeks. Unfortunately for some people the psychological disturbance lasts months, years, and sometimes a lifetime. These disturbances include nightmares, intrusive thoughts, avoidance of situations that resemble the trauma, difficulty relating to other people, withdrawal from social life, and in extreme cases dissociation from reality. The two most common psychological conditions associated with this disturbed response are Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Adjustment Disorder. Psychologists have had more than a hundred years of experience in dealing with these difficulties. In the First World War it was described as shell shock. In the Second World War it was known as combat fatigue. We now know that it is not only those who engage in combat who suffer from these disorders. What we are increasingly understanding is that posttraumatic experiences are a disturbance of memory: the disturbance is that we simply cannot forget the horror we have experienced. Psychologists have developed clear treatment pathways to assist the victims of trauma.

Trauma and PTSD are symptoms experiences due to an event or a series of events. Somatic therapy will guide and support the process of discharging the trauma from the body so that it doesn't affect one's present behavior any longer. It is not a life sentence.

Vicky Mould
Counsellor/Therapist, Accredited Professional Registrant (PNCPS Acc.)
While the effects of PTSD can be debilitating and distressing, recovery from it is possible (yes, it really is), and I'm here for you if you'd like support in that journey. I undertake trauma training regularly as part of my continuing professional development and can facilitate using creative mediums alongside talking - including art. I regard safety as all-important, and I'll work to establish a safe and trusting relationship with you. Traumatic birth, sudden and unexpected bereavement - including baby loss, and sexual or domestic abuse are some of the underlying traumas I can support you with. I can offer a compassionate, non-judgmental and understanding approach and work at a pace that feels comfortable for you. If you'd like to explore counselling together, please get in touch with me to arrange a low-cost consultation.
