Trauma and PTSD
Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
I have a particular interest in working in a trauma informed way and am committed to ongoing CPD specialising in this field. I am continuing to study this with a level 5 certificate in CPTSD currently. I may also use an IFS approach if this is appropriate and provide psycho education in relation to the autonomic nervous system, 5 f's, amygdala, triggers and encourage clients to practice the opposing relaxation responses, starting with basic breathing exercises which are the bodies' natural calming response.

Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
Post-traumatic stress disorder and trauma are a result of various life events that can have frightening and unsettling effects. Some of these include car accidents, domestic violence, sexual and emotional abuse. These can affect the brain's ability to recall the events.
The goal of trauma therapy is to help people rewrite their stories and regain a sense of stability and safety.

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.

I work with a lot of people through trauma and PTSD. Most of the people that I have seen have had some major traumas and if not then they have suffered from a develomental trauma. I am attending a training in November 2019 to learn further how to help -people in processing their traumas further and healing from them.

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.
