PTSD, what is it and how do I recover?

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can occur after a threatening or traumatic event. It usually occurs because the memory is so frightening or uncomfortable that the brain doesn't process it completely and it remains fresh as though it is happening again. In these cases it can come back to re-traumatize you on any day or sometimes every day unless you avoid reminders. Join others who have been experiencing something similar to learn about what is happening in your brain and what you can do to move towards processing the memory which will bring healing and recovery.

Complex Trauma / cPTSD Basics to Recovery Program

Research and diagnosis of Complex Trauma/Complex PTSD have only been in mainstream Psychology, less than 10 years. Treatments are therefore new and underdeveloped worldwide. I have seen excellent results in my practice so far using a model developed from the available literature and my 15 years of clinical experience working with adults with backgrounds of childhood trauma. I invite anyone who has undergone adverse childhood experiences, and were unsupported through them, to join others experiencing similar challenges to understand the 4 most fundamental presentations of cPTSD and practice strategies which promote healing and recovery. PLEASE NOTE: Group intake is currently waitlist only for 2025

Complex Trauma / cPTSD Advanced Recovery Program

After completing the Complex Trauma/cPTSD Basics to Recovery, or a similar program, you might want to attend the advanced program for further monitoring and support to make your road to recovery even shorter and smoother. As you will have made some necessary changes for your health and well-being to emerge, your world will start to be different, especially because your relationships with people will improve or fall away if they were too unhealthy to fix. You will learn what to look out for, how to navigate these changes in future and you will be supported on the way.
