Trauma can linger long after the event itself has passed. For some, it shows up as intrusive memories or flashbacks; for others, as numbness, disconnection, or a sense of being on edge. You might feel overwhelmed by emotions that seem to come from nowhere, find yourself bracing for things to go wrong, or struggle to trust others.
Many people come to therapy unsure where to start or uncertain if they even want to talk about what happened. That’s completely natural. What matters is having a space where you're met with care, respect, and safety, so you can process at your own pace.
Counselling for Trauma
At Third Path Therapy, you are always in control. There’s no expectation to share anything before you feel ready, and no requirement to talk about your trauma directly if it doesn’t feel safe. We move at your pace, guided by what feels right for you. My role isn’t to analyse, judge, or push. It’s to offer a calm, grounded space where you feel believed, heard, and accepted. Together, we gently explore how trauma has shaped your emotions, coping strategies, and sense of self- helping you gain clarity, resolve internal struggles, and reclaim control.
What I Offer
I work with people who have experienced trauma in many forms- whether recent or long-standing, single-event or complex. This includes trauma related to abuse, relationships, childhood experiences, and loss. Some clients come to counselling with clear memories of what happened, while others have a sense that something isn’t right, even if they can’t put it into words. Some experience anxiety, low mood, or difficulties in their relationships as a result of their trauma. Whatever form it takes for you, there’s a space here to be heard, understood, and supported.
Who I Support
Person-centred therapy offers a safe, compassionate space where you don’t have to justify yourself, or your reactions. You set the pace, and we explore what feels manageable to you, whether that’s building trust in the process, exploring emotional patterns, or simply having room to breathe. Over time, many people find that person-centred counselling helps them: • develop a stronger sense of self-trust • understand their emotions and reactions more clearly • reduce self-criticism and shame • strengthen boundaries and emotional awareness • reclaim a sense of control over their life Our work together isn’t about reliving trauma. It’s about reconnecting with yourself, helping you move toward a life that feels safer, freer, and truly your own.
