Dr. Antonio D'Costa
Registered Psychotherapist, M.B.B.S, M.D. (Paediatrics)
I specialize in pediatric medicine and trauma-focused therapy using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). My work centers on supporting children, adolescents, and adults through grief, anxiety, behavioral challenges, and the lingering effects of difficult experiences.
As a pediatrician, I've seen how unprocessed trauma shows up in young lives- through sleep troubles, feeding issues, social withdrawal, and emotional struggles. EMDR offers a gentle, research-backed path to healing that goes beyond words.
With EMDRIA-approved training and my pediatric experience, I help families navigate some of their most challenging moments. Whether it's a child struggling with grief, an adolescent facing anxiety, or an adult working through long-held wounds, my approach blends medical expertise with compassionate, evidence-based care.
I'm passionate about making mental health support accessible- offering teletherapy across India and internationally, with subsidized sessions available for those who need them.
Let's connect if you're looking for trauma-informed support, professional collaboration, or referrals for children and families in need.

Sudeva Hawkes
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, B.Couns., MNCPS Accred. , PACFA Reg.
Both childhood trauma and that which comes from a recent shock can be immensely hard to live with. The good news is that you don't have to delve into old wounds or relive past events. Trauma is held in the body and it is through the body that it can be released. Sudeva is experienced in trauma work, he is a Certified Practitioner in Somatic Experiencing (Peter Levine's work) and has further trained in NARM, Attachment Theory and IFS.

Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
Trauma doesn't just live in your memories - it becomes embedded in your nervous system, creating hypervigilance, flashbacks, emotional numbness, and a constant sense of threat that can make daily life feel unsafe. Whether from a single traumatic event or ongoing experiences, trauma rewires your brain to prioritize survival over connection and joy. Having worked through my own trauma and its role in addiction and depression, I understand how these experiences can fragment your sense of self and make healing feel impossible. My approach to trauma uses Subconscious Dynamics™ to gently access and process traumatic memories stored in the subconscious, allowing your nervous system to finally recognize that the danger has passed. This method helps you integrate traumatic experiences without re-traumatisation, transforming them from sources of ongoing pain into sources of strength and wisdom. The goal isn't to forget what happened, but to free yourself from its ongoing grip on your life.

Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
I am a trauma-informed psychotherapist that is skilled in helping a client stay within their window of tolerance when talking about experiences that activate their emotional body and nervous system. Effective therapy occurs in the middle zone of activation, not too comfortable but also not too upset. It's my job to help my clients to build capacity and regulation tools to stay in that middle zone so their experience can be processed in a healthy and empowering way.

Body Sense Psychology
Psychologist, Master of Psychology, Bachelor of Arts (Honours Psychology), Certificate in Sexology
As a psychosexual therapist, I see many clients who have complex PTSD and trauma either from childhood, or adulthood or both. Trauma can come from many places and I've seen clients with relationship, family and workplace trauma. I use evidence-based approaches such as CBT, Schema Therapy, Attachment Based Therapy, Somatic Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
I work to understand the context of where you are now, what's happened, who you are, and where you want to get to.
Trauma recovery is often a slow and difficult process so I work with you to identify strategies and solutions that help you achieve healing and growth, whether that's in accepting what is, or recovering from what was.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
Everyone has trauma. It's part of being alive. And some trauma events can be particularly intense and leave us feeling unsafe in the world. The environment we grew up in, if particularly abusive and dysfunctional, can also be traumatic and cause us to feel unsafe in the world. Trauma shows up in our nervous system responses to people and situations, like being excessively wary and on high alert.
We work to regulate your nervous system, to give it safe resting places and experiences of relaxation. We also work with the underlying trauma itself in a very slow, resourcing way.

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.

Katie Feder
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Psychotherapist, BSc Hons Psychology
Trauma and PTSD can feel like invisible scars that affect every aspect of your life. Whether it's from a past relationship, a difficult childhood, or a specific traumatic event, the impact can leave you feeling overwhelmed, unsafe, and disconnected from your sense of self. But healing from trauma is possible, and it’s a journey toward reclaiming your peace and power.
I support women who are navigating the effects of trauma and PTSD, helping them process their experiences, reconnect with their bodies, and restore emotional balance. We’ll work together to unravel the deep-seated patterns of fear, shame, and self-doubt, and begin the process of healing your nervous system so you can feel safe, grounded, and empowered.
While trauma can leave lasting effects, healing is not just about reliving painful memories—it’s about rebuilding your sense of safety, self-worth, and resilience. Through practical tools, emotional support, and guidance, I help you step into a future where you are in control of your life, with a renewed sense of strength and clarity.
Healing from trauma takes time, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to guide you through the process, helping you reclaim your life, your peace, and your personal power.
