In the therapeutic setting, the psychologist provides a safe and supportive space for individuals to embark on their journey of healing from traumatic experiences. Drawing from evidence-based therapeutic approaches, clients are guided through the complicated landscape of trauma and PTSD, fostering emotional recovery and resilience. This therapeutic journey delves into past attachment issues, childhood experiences, and the environmental factors of the past using schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Trauma Focussed approaches, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs. The central focus is on reconnecting with the vulnerable inner child by exploring trauma incidents, past or present, and unraveling the maladaptive beliefs and coping mechanisms that developed as a result of these traumatic wounds. The aim is to support clients to regain control over their lives, cultivate healthier coping mechanisms for their inner trauma wounds, and rediscover inner peace.
