Trauma Focused Therapy 

Going through a traumatic experience can have a profound and long lasting impact on an a individual's life making it difficult to cope with one's daily activities. Individuals often report symptoms such as intrusive memories, flashbacks, nightmares of the traumatic event along with experiencing intense emotions, difficulties concentrating and avoidance behaviors.

These are common symptoms of trauma and can be treated with a specialist trauma focused treatment. 

​

Trauma focused therapy is a specific approach that directly targets the trauma and the emotional distress individuals may experience after a traumatic event that allows individuals to process the traumatic memories.   

​

I am trained in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), two evidence-based treatments for individuals experiencing post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other difficulties related to the traumatic life event. 

​

The average number of sessions for this treatment is between 12 to 20.

​

I am also trained in Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET), which is recommended particularly in individuals suffering from complex and multiple trauma.

​

The average number of sessions for this treatment is 15 or more.
