The Heart of Therapy
Trauma Therapy
"When we truly understand trauma and its impact, any judgement is replaced by a profound sense of compassion".
~ Bessel van der Kolk
At The Heart of Therapy, we are specialists in gold-standard trauma therapies and treatments. We know that healing from trauma can feel rough at times, and we are passionate about creating a compassionate, judgement-free, safe haven of support for you every step of the way.
"Trauma is not just an event that took place sometime in the past; it is also the imprint left by that experience on mind, body, and soul. What has happened cannot be undone, but what can be undone are those imprints of the trauma left inside us. Through trauma healing, our brain can finally stop acting as if the traumatic event is still happening now and the trauma no longer controls our lives."
~ Bessel Van der Kolk
Affirmative Trauma Care
We believe that not being affirmed, accepted and supported for who we are at our core is a traumatic experience, and we treat it as such. We understand that marginalised communities face unique challenges and experience trauma as a result of this. Being specialists in the field of trauma, we strive to create an inclusive and affirming environment to help you explore your unique, authentic self while healing your traumatic experiences.
While talk therapy can be helpful for many conditions, truly overcoming the impacts of trauma and its symptoms often requires specialised, integrative approaches that go beyond that. At The Heart of Therapy, we have specialist training, experience and skills to address the deeper, and sometimes unconscious, layers of trauma stored in the body and mind. If you would like to start trauma therapy with us, please feel welcome to use our 24-hour online booking system to choose a time that best suits you.
