Beth Jackson Counselling and Coaching
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (hons), Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
Trauma and PTSD have a way of reappearing at different times when we least expect or want it. It can feel like pushing a cork under water. Perhaps you have hidden your experience(s) so far down that no one around you even suspects. As a REWIND therapist I can work on this with you. REWIND does not use long sessions of revisiting past trauma or phobias. It is a quick and effective method using guided imagery and I have seen it transform lives of clients that I have worked with. Please contact me to find out more.

Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, Spiritual Teacher, Gene Keys Guide, Trainer Tibetan Acupressure & Iridology
In many cases, but not all, a traumatic imprint leaves a following stress disorder, which sit in one's life until another force meets it and can change it. Developmental trauma from early childhood and also recent shock trauma, both can be hard to regulate on one's own. Nowadays trauma therapy offers many different ways and views to work through the body. The very good news is that you do not need to dive back into the trauma or its story but we can release the psychosomatic disorders from the soma of the body. Over the past 25 years I have thoroughly studied and also met some of the leading heads of trauma therapy. I am not certified for a professional hat but work in accordance with the insights of SE, Developmental Trauma, NARM, Poly Vagal Theory and IFS. My husband Sudeva is certified, if you prefer to work with someone who actually wears the professional hat, look at his profile here on Therapy Tribe.

Trauma is foundational to a wide variety of distress and is most resistant to change if experienced in early childhood. PTSD severity is inked to childhood trauma and should be understood in that context.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are unfortunately way more common than many people think. A strong link has been found my many studies between ACEs and physical and mental health problems in later life. Traumatic experiences can also take place in adolescence and adulthood. For some, the impact is greatly distressing and life-limiting, such as in the cases of having post-traumatic-stress disorder.
Many of the people I have come to work with have lived through often multiple adversities and traumatic experiences, throughout their lives. I offer a confidential space where we can think together about the way such experiences have affected you and the parts of you that can change and develop in order to integrate and move on from past traumas.

Karine Flynn
Psychologist, MSc, GMBPS
Trauma isn't only what happened - it's what the body didn't get to finish in response to what happened. Whether you're carrying the weight of a single overwhelming event or a lifetime of experiences that were never safe enough to fully process, this work meets you in the body rather than in the narrative. We create enough safety for your nervous system to complete those unfinished cycles - without re-traumatisation, without overwhelm, and without requiring you to relive what you've already survived.

Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
Trauma is an emotional response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event that overwhelms a person's ability to cope. It can result from various experiences, including accidents, natural disasters, war, abuse and loss. PTSD is a mental health condition triggered by experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Symptoms include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety and uncontrollable thoughts about the event. Complex PTSD stems from prolonged or repeated trauma, often occurring during childhood - it includes symptoms of PTSD along with additional difficulties such as emotional regulation issues, dissociation and interpersonal problems. Somatic resources focus on the body and it's sensations, aiming to release trauma stored in the physical self. Techniques include breath work, movement, touch and awareness exercises. These methods help clients reconnect with their body, fostering a sense of safety and presence. Using parts work, based on the IFS model - an evidence based therapeutic model that views the mind as composed of multiple parts, each with their own perspective and roles. It's particularly effective for trauma as it helps clients understand and integrate fragmented selves. Healing occurs as clients learn to listen to and care for wounded parts, reducing the intensity of protector parts whose symptoms manifest as rigidity, avoidance or intense reactions and unwanted behaviours. Integration involves creating harmony among parts, leading to a more cohesive and balanced self. A trauma-informed approach is grounded in understanding and responding to the effects of trauma. It focuses on creating a safe and supportive environment, emphasising clients' strengths and resilience. Integration involves combining somatic resources, parts work, IFS and trauma-informed care in a flexible and client-centred way. This holistic approach addresses trauma's effects on the body, mind and spirit, fostering comprehensive healing. It is imperative that my clients feel safe and supported in our sessions. I cultivate a warm, non-judgmental environment, respecting your boundaries and pacing. Interventions are tailored to each person's unique needs, incorporating somatic exercises, parts work, IFS techniques, and trauma-informed principles as appropriate. Building resilience involves supporting my client's in developing coping strategies, enhance self-awareness and build supportive relationships.

Headline: Healing Where the Story is Stored: A Somatic Path to Trauma Recovery
Beyond Just Talking About It
If you have lived through trauma, you know that the past doesn't just stay in the past. It shows up in your body as a tightened chest, a constant state of "high alert," or a heavy, persistent exhaustion. When traditional talk therapy isn't enough, it’s often because your nervous system is still stuck in a survival loop.
My Approach: Integrated Somatic Therapy
I provide a holistic, bottom-up approach to healing that honors the deep connection between your mind and body. We move beyond the "narrative" of your trauma to address the physical reality of how your body has stored those experiences. Through specialized, embodied practices, we will:
Address Physical Manifestations: Gently track and release the stored tension, chronic pain, or "freezing" responses that keep you stuck.
Facilitate Deeper Processing: By quieting the analytical mind and listening to the body’s "unspoken voice," we create space for emotional release that words alone cannot reach.
Rebuild Safety & Regulation: You will learn tangible tools to settle your nervous system, allowing you to move from a state of "reacting" to a state of resilient presence.

PHOBIAS, PANIC ATTACKS AND POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS
The brain has an emotional alarm system designed to keep us safe. When people suffer from panic attacks, phobias or post-traumatic stress, it is because the system has gone into overdrive.
What happens is this. There is a small, structure in the brain, known as the amygdala (Greek for almond, which is its shape), that has access to our emotional memories and learned responses. It evolved in the distant past and its job is to match new circumstances to what is already in the store and alert us to anything that previously represented a risk and might do so again. In the distant past, this might have been a movement or flash of colour that could have signified an approaching predator. The amygdala would then have triggered changes to help the body get ready to fight or flee the danger – pounding heart, racing pulse, quick, shallow breathing, etc.
Now imagine this. A young woman, who has had a highly stressful day, is waiting in a long supermarket queue, worrying whether she’ll be out of the shop in time to catch the bus to school to collect her little girl. It is one pressure too many. The amygdala responds as if she is under threat and she starts to feel her heart pounding strangely and her breathing quickens. She becomes terrified that she is having a heart attack and that makes the symptoms escalate – her palms sweat; her chest feels as if it is bursting and she struggles to breathe. Soon she feels overwhelmed and may collapse or run out of the shop. The amygdala, fearful that this could happen again, files away the fact that there were bright lights and lots of people queuing when the ‘threat’ occurred. Then, when the woman is queuing in the post office the next day, the bright lights and queue may be sufficient for the over-vigilant amygdala to trigger another panic attack to deal with the new ‘threat’.
Phobias start the same way – the amygdala makes associations with what was going on when a person first felt threatened, not all of which may be relevant. So, while it is understandable that someone who is attacked by a vicious dog may well develop a fear of dogs generally, it could equally be the case that someone develops a fear of broken glass because, on a previous occasion, when they had had a panic attack, there was broken glass lying near to where they collapsed. Agoraphobia develops when someone is too frightened of panic attacks even to leave the house.
In the case of post-traumatic stress, someone who was in the back seat of a car when a collision occurred may find it frightening to travel in the back seat again but there may be other, unconscious, connections with the accident too, such as the smell of petrol. So the person may experience seemingly inexplicable panic when filling up their own car with petrol.
Fortunately, human givens practitioners are taught a simple and effective way to deal with all these circumstances. If a traumatic memory is causing panic attacks, phobias or post-traumatic stress, they can use a powerful, painless visualisation procedure, known as the rewind technique, to take the emotion out of the memory and enable the memory of the event to be stored away as history, instead of as one that continues to intrude on the present. The memory remains, and always will remain, a deeply unpleasant one but no longer is it emotionally arousing. This method can work swiftly and reliably even in the most extreme of cases.

Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Trauma is an incredibly painful thing to experience, as your therapist I am here to be with you, reminding you that you are not alone. We can explore what you have experienced without fear of it being "too much". Therapy is a space wherein you can say and do anything, and I am here to be your support throughout this, allowing the pain to have a space to dissipate in. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

Trauma is the buzzword is the therapeutic world at the moment, and about time too. Trauma research has shown that trauma in early life can contribute to a host of mental and physical health challenges throughout our lives and needs
I adapt a somatic, psych-spiritual approach to trauma rather than a cognitive approach. We heal trauma through the body, by reconnecting with the body and learning to feel safe with our feelings and emotions.
