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.

In many cases, but not all, a traumatic imprint leaves a following stress disorder, which sit in one's life until another force meets it and can change it. Developmental trauma from early childhood and also recent shock trauma, both can be hard to regulate on one's own. Nowadays trauma therapy offers many different ways and views to work through the body. The very good news is that you do not need to dive back into the trauma or its story but we can release the psychosomatic disorders from the soma of the body. Over the past 25 years I have thoroughly studied and also met some of the leading heads of trauma therapy. I am not certified for a professional hat but work in accordance with the insights of SE, Developmental Trauma, NARM, Poly Vagal Theory and IFS. My husband Sudeva is certified, if you prefer to work with someone who actually wears the professional hat, look at his profile here on Therapy Tribe.

Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
Trauma doesn't just live in your memories - it becomes embedded in your nervous system, creating hypervigilance, flashbacks, emotional numbness, and a constant sense of threat that can make daily life feel unsafe. Whether from a single traumatic event or ongoing experiences, trauma rewires your brain to prioritize survival over connection and joy. Having worked through my own trauma and its role in addiction and depression, I understand how these experiences can fragment your sense of self and make healing feel impossible. My approach to trauma uses Subconscious Dynamics™ to gently access and process traumatic memories stored in the subconscious, allowing your nervous system to finally recognize that the danger has passed. This method helps you integrate traumatic experiences without re-traumatisation, transforming them from sources of ongoing pain into sources of strength and wisdom. The goal isn't to forget what happened, but to free yourself from its ongoing grip on your life.
