Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Reg. Certified Practising 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.

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.
