Trauma and PTSD
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.

Kerri Parke
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist ACA-L2
I am a trauma informed counsellor, with experience of providing trauma informed counselling to survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, both recent and historic. I also work with people with disabilities who have experienced trauma, abuse, neglect and exploitation.
I also recognise that trauma comes in many forms and you may not even think of your experiences as "traumatic". The impact on the body is the same, whether the event was big or small. Because it is something that happens in the body, it means it can be transformed, rather than only thinking about it as a static event that can't be altered.
