PTSD/Trauma
Tawney Bevilacqua (Spiral Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist
Trauma can arise from many different experiences, and its effects are often carried not only in our memories, but also in our bodies, relationships, and sense of ourselves. Many people who have experienced trauma have also experienced misunderstanding, leaving them to carry the weight of their experiences alone.
I approach trauma therapy with great care, recognising that healing cannot be rushed. Together, we'll work at a pace that feels safe and manageable, building trust, strengthening your internal and external resources, and listening closely to your nervous system. When the time is right, we can gently explore traumatic experiences in ways that support integration rather than overwhelm.
My approach is grounded in understanding before fixing. I believe that the therapeutic relationship provides a steady foundation from which healing can unfold. Trauma work is rarely linear, and there is no right way to move through it. Throughout the process, my role is to accompany you with patience, respect, and compassion as you gradually reconnect with your own resilience, agency, and capacity for living more freely.

Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
Traumatic events can be very difficult to come to terms with, but trying to disentangle and confronting your feelings and getting professional help is often the only way of effectively treating PTSD. Traumata can also be micro-traumata that we need to make sense of.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
I use a tri-phasic trauma treatment model. That means the first phase (roughly 20 sessions) is all about creating emotional stabilisation and a deep sense of safety in the therapeutic relationship. The second phase is where the trauma treatment actually occurs, and this is done with great care, slowness and attunement, in a way that leads to integration of traumatic material.

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.

Trauma and PTSD symptoms often have very negative and distressing effects on people’s family and intimate relationships, work and career, and quality of life. Therapy and trauma counselling is a key and highly effective method for helping to process and resolve trauma.
