Trauma can be many things. It is a complex experience, which can often be isolating and compounded by relational misunderstanding. Working with trauma is profound, creating shifts in reality which are momentous. That's why this work is slow and nonlinear. The relationship between myself and the client must be strong enough to hold the unpredictability of the process, and I focus on the client's resources as preparation for direct trauma processing. Integration also introduces riches and a reorganisation of self afterwards. This work requires great courage and I have utmost respect for all who are willing to engage with traumatic histories.

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.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in critical incident trauma response, restorative justice, family violence, sexual abuse and mental health, I have a good understanding of all kinds of trauma (recent or past) and how they impact the person including the potential impacts for those around them. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your trauma impacts better and learn practical strategies to support increased emotional regulation skills, along with specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session. This comprehensive strategy supports greater healing of the underlying trauma without the need to discuss the details of the trauma. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self, leaving often the carried sense of anger, guilt or shame behind.
My aim is to assist you with your trauma difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Psychotherapist, BSc Hons Psychology
Trauma and PTSD can feel like invisible scars that affect every aspect of your life. Whether it's from a past relationship, a difficult childhood, or a specific traumatic event, the impact can leave you feeling overwhelmed, unsafe, and disconnected from your sense of self. But healing from trauma is possible, and it’s a journey toward reclaiming your peace and power.
I support women who are navigating the effects of trauma and PTSD, helping them process their experiences, reconnect with their bodies, and restore emotional balance. We’ll work together to unravel the deep-seated patterns of fear, shame, and self-doubt, and begin the process of healing your nervous system so you can feel safe, grounded, and empowered.
While trauma can leave lasting effects, healing is not just about reliving painful memories—it’s about rebuilding your sense of safety, self-worth, and resilience. Through practical tools, emotional support, and guidance, I help you step into a future where you are in control of your life, with a renewed sense of strength and clarity.
Healing from trauma takes time, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to guide you through the process, helping you reclaim your life, your peace, and your personal power.
