Trauma Therapy
for trauma of all kinds
in Caringbah | Sutherland Shire

Sometimes, trauma isn't just about what happened,
but about what your mind and body had to do
in order to survive it. 
​
It can live in your body, your nervous system,
in your relationships, your reactions, your emotions,
in the way you see yourself, or the world around you.
​
You might notice:
feeling triggered by things you can't always explain,
difficulty feeling safe, calm, or settled,
emotional overwhelm, anxiety, or panic,
feeling numb, disconnected, or shut down,
patterns that feel hard to shift, 
hypervigilance, people-pleasing, avoidance, or feeling constantly on edge,
strong emotional reactions that seem bigger than the present moment.
​
These responses are not signs that something is wrong with you. 
Often they ​are adaptive responses from a system that learned
it needed to stay alert, protected, or guarded in order to cope.​
​

How therapy for trauma
can help

In therapy together, we work gently and collaboratively to understand 
how these experiences may still be affecting you in the present.
​
Our work may include:
understanding trauma responses and nervous system patterns,
exploring the impact of earlier relationships and attachment wounds,
building grounding, emotional regulation, and internal safety,
working with shame, fear, hypervigilance, or disconnection,
processing unresolved traumatic experiences with care and support,
developing more secure and compassionate ways of relating to yourself.
​

My approach to
trauma therapy

​​​Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, 
we build emotional safety and nervous system regulation
before moving toward deeper processing work. 
Therapy is never about forcing you to revisit experiences before you feel ready.
​
I integrate EMDR therapy, alongside attachment-focused therapy,
ACT, DBT, TF-CBT, and nervous system-informed approaches,
with care, consent, and safety always at the centre of our work.
