However, it is common to experience a number of negative experiences; numbness, lack of trust, sadness, flashbacks/nightmares, difficulty concentrating, irritability, exaggerated startle response, hypervigilence.

Alexina Baldini
Psychologist, B.B.Sc., G.D.A.C.P., M.Psych.(For.), F.A.P.S.
Understanding trauma and trauma diagnoses such as PTSD is crucial for any successful therapy. Our therapists have many years experience in working with trauma and its consequences, whether that be a one-off traumatic incident or cumulative traumas that may result in a diagnosis of Complex PTSD. Therapy may include a range of approaches that are well-researched and found to be effective in practice, related to safe graduated exposure therapies or creative therapies that incorporate adjunct therapy such as art therapy or visualisation around recovery.

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.
