Melbourne, Victoria therapist: Ronnie Adamowicz, therapist
Trauma and PTSD

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.

Adelaide is South Australia's capital and one of Australia's most liveable cities, with a strong arts, food, and festival culture that coexists with the mental health challenges common to all major Australian cities. The Royal Adelaide Hospital and Flinders Medical Centre provide substantial institutional mental health resources, while the University of Adelaide and Flinders University maintain active clinical psychology training programs feeding into the private practice community. Adelaide's lower housing costs relative to Sydney and Melbourne make private therapy more financially accessible for a broader segment of the population, and the city's compact geography means practices are relatively easy to reach. Growing migrant communities from India, China, and Southeast Asia are increasing demand for culturally competent and multilingual therapists.
