Experiencing trauma or PTSD can be overwhelming, leaving lasting emotional and psychological effects that interfere with daily life.
Whether you have endured a single traumatic event or prolonged distress, finding the right support is essential for healing. Our online trauma therapy offers a flexible and accessible way to work through your experiences in a safe and supportive environment, helping you regain control and move toward recovery.
What is Trauma and PTSD?
Trauma is a psychological and emotional response to deeply distressing or disturbing experiences. These experiences may be one-off events, such as a serious accident or an assault, or may stem from ongoing exposure to harm, such as childhood neglect, emotional abuse, domestic violence, or bullying. When trauma leads to persistent symptoms that interfere with daily functioning, it can develop into Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Trauma and PTSD can significantly affect the way your brain processes memory, safety, and emotional regulation. You might feel stuck in survival mode, unable to relax, trust, or feel fully present.
Common symptoms of trauma and PTSD may include:
• Flashbacks or intrusive memories of the traumatic event
• Nightmares or disturbed sleep
• Hypervigilance or exaggerated startle response
• Avoidance of reminders or situations linked to the trauma
• Emotional numbness or disconnection from others
• Intense feelings of fear, helplessness, shame, or guilt
• Difficulty concentrating or remembering things
• Mood swings, irritability, or anger outbursts
• Feeling unsafe, even in secure environments
• A loss of interest in things you once enjoyed
Although trauma and PTSD can often feel overwhelming, online trauma therapy provides a structured, compassionate space to process your experienced and regain a sense of stability.

Online Trauma Therapy Techniques
EMDR Therapy
One of the evidence-based approaches we use is Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR therapy is a highly effective technique that helps to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and PTSD symptoms, making them less distressing and intrusive. This can relieve symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, and emotional distress, allowing you to regain a sense of control over your thoughts and emotions.
Intensive Trauma Focused Therapy (TFT)
We offer an Intensive Trauma-Focused Therapy Programme for individuals experiencing PTSD or Complex PTSD who are seeking meaningful change within a shorter timeframe. Unlike traditional weekly therapy, intensive treatment condenses evidence-based trauma processing into a structured programme delivered over 1-2 weeks, helping to facilitate recovery whilst minimising disruption to work, family, and everyday commitments.
