Ronnie Adamowicz
Therapist, M.A. Psych
work with trauma and PTSD using a somatic, nervous-system-informed approach that recognises how traumatic experiences are held in the body, not just remembered in the mind. Trauma can show up as hypervigilance, emotional numbness, anxiety, shutdown, intrusive memories, or a sense of being stuck in survival mode. These patterns are adaptive responses to overwhelming experiences and deserve care rather than force or re-exposure.
In somatic psychotherapy, we focus on building safety, regulation, and capacity before processing difficult material. Sessions move at a pace guided by your nervous system, helping to restore a sense of choice, embodiment, and stability. Over time, this approach supports integration rather than retraumatisation, allowing symptoms to soften and life to feel more spacious and grounded.
This work can be especially supportive for developmental trauma, complex PTSD, or when trauma is layered with anxiety or depression.

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.

Trauma can be both relational/attachment trauma or it may be through traumatic events such as neglect, abuse, domestic violence (witnessed or experienced). It may be through war, through refugee status or bullying at work or in the home. It can create what is known as PTSD(Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), C-PTSD (Complex Post Traumatic Disorder) or in those with major trauma DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder). These traumatic events require a trained and accredited therapist to deal with the healing of the psyche. I am trained at Master level to work wit all cases of Trauma.

Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
PTSD is fundamentally a nervous system injury; the body gets stuck in incomplete survival responses. SE helps the body gradually complete those responses, discharge stored survival energy, and return to regulation. This makes it especially suited for trauma resolution.
