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.

My primary focus is on attachment patterns, developmental and relational trauma rather than treating trauma as a single event. I also work with PTSD presentations within my scope. I am a formally train IFS Level 1, Certified Somatic Therapy Foundations Practitioner and have completed my Somatic IFS certificate. I use a trauma-informed, attachment and somatic approaches alongside IFS to help clients understand protective responses such as avoidance, hypervigilance, shutdown and disconnection. A 2022 pilot study indicated that 92% of participants no longer met PTSD criteria after IFS therapy (12 our of 13 participants).

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Trauma can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself, on high alert, or stuck reliving experiences you wish you could move past. If painful memories or their aftermath are shaping your day-to-day life, let's work together to help you feel safe in your body again.
The first step in working with trauma is understanding that your responses make sense — they're not a sign of weakness, but of a nervous system that adapted to survive something hard. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll work at a pace that feels safe for you, using somatic and relational approaches to process what happened and release what your body has been holding. My approach centers safety, self-compassion, and rebuilding trust — in yourself, in others, and in the world around you.
You don't have to carry this alone. Let's take the first step toward healing and feeling whole again.

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.

Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
Trauma and PTSD affect the body, emotions, and relationships long after the original events have ended. I work with single-incident and complex trauma, including the trauma that comes from relationships that were not safe and from environments where survival required adaptation. The pacing is careful. We don't push past what your body and mind are ready for; we work alongside them. The aim is restored agency and steadier ground, with no expectation that the work will erase what has happened.
