TRAUMA THERAPY
Time To Heal
Psychotherapy now has powerful ways of working with complex trauma
Not just 'trauma-informed'
I'm trained in the psychotherapies
that are designed to treat and heal trauma
Because talk therapy only scratches the surface when it comes to healing trauma,
I have learnt to integrate a blend of
Counselling, Psychotherapy, and Somatic Therapies to treat complex trauma, no matter how long ago.

PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder): Ptsd is a diagnosis usually given after a single traumatic event, with symptoms that last longer than 6 weeks. PTSD symptoms are a normal response to an abnormal event.
An example of what can cause PTSD could be an accident.
C-PTSD (Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder): This is not an officially recognised diagnosis (within the DSM). C-PTSD is a cluster of trauma responses that are a consequence of on-going, or repeated, traumatic events. Usually stemming from childhood, CPTSD has an element of grief or is impacted by relationships.
An example might be abuse or neglect in childhood.

WHERE?
Mersey House,
140 Speke Road,
Garston,
Liverpool

I work from my own private therapy office - it's not an office that I share with other therapists, so you won't run into your previous therapist.
Mersey House is a high quality renovated Grade II listed building within easy reach of Liverpool and surrounding towns.
There is on-site parking, and separate male & female toilets.
Air-con & heating makes sure we can stay comfortable during all your sessions!
