Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
We all experience trauma of one sort or another, through the experiences of our lives. The effects of trauma may be long-lasting and debilitating, and can include PTSD, depression, anxiety, panic, phobias, difficult personal relationships, poor quality sleep, stress and memory problems. Mind-body therapies help to calm and relax the body, release trauma, and improve sleep. Through psycho-education you will learn how trauma affects your brain, and get to know and understand yourself, your behaviours, and your motivations better.

Jayne LESLEY Allen
Therapist, MIBWRT(AC and Coach, TFT DX, NLP Practioner and Coach, Hypnotherapist
Trauma can leave lasting imprints on the brain and body, showing up as anxiety, flashbacks, hypervigilance, or a sense of being stuck in the past. Healing is possible—your nervous system can be guided back into balance. In our work together, I use evidence-based approaches such as BWRT® and neuroscience-based therapies to gently release trauma patterns at their root. I also integrate HeartMath® techniques, which help regulate the stress response, restore heart–brain coherence, and build resilience. The goal is not to erase what happened, but to help you feel safer in yourself, regain control, and move forward with greater calm and strength.

Birgit Schreiber Dr
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.

Ulrike Nau-Debor
Psychologist, CPsychol, AFBPsS, HCPC registered
It is so important to work on our trauma because healing and reclaiming one's life is possible. Find someone you feel safe with, who is compassionate and gentle. There is often a connection between childhood trauma and PTSD, so it is worthwhile to not only address recent events (if you are seeking help for a recent trauma) but also to explore any possible links to your past.
I sometimes use EFT (tapping) to help clients with their trauma, along with other modalities. One of the challenges can be reconnecting with one's body and starting to feel safe in it again.
If you suffer from flashbacks, it's crucial to process these memories and integrate them into your life story. You can learn different techniques for dealing with flashbacks and the overall anxiety and depression you may be experiencing.
One major aspect of trauma is that it isn't only about what happened, but also what we made it mean about ourselves and the world. What kind of belief systems did we create to make sense of what happened, how others reacted to it, and how we tried to cope with it? We carry these beliefs forward and continue living according to them, potentially harming or limiting ourselves.
This new belief system disconnects us from who we truly are and undermines our authenticity. To me, healing is about reclaiming your authentic self and living freely again.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults affected by trauma, including post-traumatic stress and complex trauma. Traumatic experiences can continue to shape how people respond internally and in relationships, often long after the original events have passed.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how trauma is held and organised internally, including protective responses that may have developed over time. Rather than assuming readiness or direction, sessions focus on understanding what is present and how different internal responses interact. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most manageable and useful.
