Trauma can linger long after a painful experience. You might feel numb one moment and overwhelmed the next, leaving you disoriented and exhausted.
You may experience flashbacks, struggle to trust others, or feel like you're constantly bracing for things to go wrong.
Starting therapy can feel impossible- you might not know where to begin, or whether you’re ready to talk. That’s completely natural.
What matters is having a space where you feel safe, respected, and able to take things at your own pace.
Counselling for Trauma
At Third Path Therapy, you are always in control.
There’s no pressure to share, and no expectation to talk about your trauma before you’re ready. We work at your pace, focusing on what feels safe and manageable.
My role is to offer a calm, grounded space where you feel believed, and accepted. Together, we'll gently explore how your experiences have shaped you, work through what's holding you back, and help you feel more like yourself again.
What I Offer
I work with adults who have experienced a wide range of trauma, including domestic abuse, relationship difficulties, childhood neglect, and bereavement. For some, it’s a single event; for others, it’s multiple experiences that span years.
You may come to counselling with clear memories of what happened, or simply have a sense that something isn’t right, even if you can’t put it into words.
Whatever your experience, this is a place where you can be heard, understood, and supported.
Who I Support
What To Expect
You don’t have to justify yourself or your reactions here. We will go at your own pace and focus on what matters to you- whether that’s building trust in the process, exploring emotions, or simply having room to breathe.
Over time, clients can begin to:
-
understand their emotional responses
-
develop self-confidence
-
reduce self-criticism and shame
-
strengthen personal boundaries
-
reclaim a sense of control
This isn’t about reliving trauma- it’s about reconnecting with yourself and moving towards a life that feels safer, freer and truly your own.
