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.

Rachel Eddins
Counsellor/Therapist, MEd, LPC
Trauma can be caused by a specific event (like an accident, assault, or life-threatening event), a recurring event (like combat exposure or repeated abuse), or a developmental, childhood, or relational trauma (like physical or emotional neglect in childhood).
Trauma can also be caused by many other frightening situations, such as bullying, abuse, rape, crime, war, victimization, and shaming/humiliation.
You don’t have to live with symptoms of trauma and PTSD. Trauma therapy can help you get unstuck and return to feeling like yourself again. You can heal from trauma.

Dr. Birte Nachtwey
Registered Psychotherapist, MD, CORST
Trauma and PTSD are more common than many people think. Terrifying events like accidents or war can cause this. Sexual or emotional abuse are a common causes. It can be a single event or something ongoing over many years to the point that is feels like a normality in which you are trapped. Many victims feel guilt and shame. Some memories are completely blanked out by the brain for many years and come back suddenly, triggered by something, or slowly, sometimes in caareful therapy. Symptoms can be dissociation (part of you goes away), flashbacks (intrusive memories),repeated nightmares, numbness and/or increased anxiety, avoidance (f.ex. of sex, relationships), negative thoughts and moods and altered physical and emotional reactions and behavior..
If you have encountered this and think you may be affected please get help. It is understandable that you don’t feel like dealing with it and want to just push it aside and have nothing to do with it ever again, but if this hasn’t worked too well and it burdens areas of your life like your sex life and your relationship, it is advisable to address this in therapy. You can get help and heal.

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.

Jayne LESLEY Allen
Therapist, MIBWRT(AC and Coach, TFT DX, NLP Practioner and Coach, Hypnotherapist
Trauma can leave lasting imprints on the brain and body, showing up as anxiety, flashbacks, hypervigilance, or a sense of being stuck in the past. Healing is possible—your nervous system can be guided back into balance. In our work together, I use evidence-based approaches such as BWRT® and neuroscience-based therapies to gently release trauma patterns at their root. I also integrate HeartMath® techniques, which help regulate the stress response, restore heart–brain coherence, and build resilience. The goal is not to erase what happened, but to help you feel safer in yourself, regain control, and move forward with greater calm and strength.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults affected by trauma, including post-traumatic stress and complex trauma. Traumatic experiences can continue to shape how people respond internally and in relationships, often long after the original events have passed.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how trauma is held and organised internally, including protective responses that may have developed over time. Rather than assuming readiness or direction, sessions focus on understanding what is present and how different internal responses interact. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most manageable and useful.

Adima Hawkes
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.

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.

Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Trauma and PTSD can impact so many areas of your life and how you view yourself. It can leave you feeling vulnerable and anxious, and can stop you living your life to the fullest. I use a technique called Rewind, which I have seen have fantastic results in overcoming PTSD. It is also used for other areas, such as phobias, and can be hugely powerful in removing a lot of the repeated symptoms that come from deep trauma.

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.
