Trauma impacts how we experience the world, relationships, and even our own bodies. At our practice, we approach trauma support gently and holistically, validating your story while helping you reconnect with safety, choice, and empowerment.

Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) pose significant mental health challenges for clients. 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.

Anne-Lynn Teoh
Registered Psychotherapist, MoPC, BPsych (Hons), B.Sc. (Psych)
What happened in the past can stay with us for a long time, in how we feel, react and relate to others. I work with relational, developmental and intergenerational trauma, such as growing up feeling unseen, criticised or controlled, or living under strict family expectations. You might notice it in your body as numbness, a tight throat or chest, shutting down, or always being on guard. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic approaches, we get to know the parts of you that learned to keep you safe, and we take your history at a pace that feels manageable.
