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.

Christina Taylor Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Counselling, BA Psychology, BA Hons Literature Grad Diploma Education
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.
