Our professional trauma-informed counsellors (Therapeutic Counsellors) understand and have expertise working with individuals impacted by trauma. They prioritise confidentiality and provide compassionate care to everyone seeking our support. Understanding the importance of trust, empathy, and aid in healing, we strive to create a therapeutic environment that fosters growth, resilience, and empowerment.
Our Therapeutic Counsellors understand the sensitive nature of trauma and its impact on individual lives. Here’s how we uphold our commitment:
Trauma-Informed: Therapeutic counsellors are trauma-informed practitioners ready to assist the needs of individuals. Being trauma-informed means, they have the knowledge, skills, and sensitivity to work effectively with individuals who have experienced trauma.
Sensitivity to Diverse Populations: Therapeutic counsellors have experience working with diverse populations, including individuals from different cultural backgrounds, LGBTQ+ individuals, or those with specific needs or identities.
Safe and Supportive Environment: Our Therapeutic counsellors create a safe and supportive environment where people can share their experiences and emotions. Our Therapeutic counsellors are trained in trauma-informed care, ensuring that sessions are conducted with empathy, understanding, and respect for each individual’s journey.
Confidentiality: We maintain strict confidentiality regarding all personal information shared during counselling sessions. Our Therapeutic counsellors adhere to professional, ethical guidelines and legal requirements to ensure the utmost privacy and protection of clients’ information.
Non-Judgmental Approach: We adopt a non-judgmental approach to counselling, recognizing that every woman’s experience is valid and unique. We provide a space for women to freely express their feelings, concerns, and fears without fear of criticism or stigma.
Empowerment: We aim to empower people by helping them regain control over their lives and build resilience. Through Therapeutic counselling, we work collaboratively with individuals, assisting them in exploring their strengths, identifying coping strategies, and developing skills to overcome trauma-related challenges.
Trauma-Informed Care: Our Therapeutic counsellors incorporate trauma-informed principles into every aspect of treatment. This includes creating a safe and supportive environment, promoting client empowerment, and recognising the impact of trauma on individuals’ lives.
Evidence-based Approaches: Our Therapeutic counsellors use evidence-based approaches and are well-versed in evidence-based trauma therapies, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and other trauma-specific interventions.
Complex Trauma and PTSD Expertise: Our specialised trauma counselling also focuses on complex trauma or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Our Therapeutic counsellors are well-equipped to work with individuals who have experienced prolonged or repeated trauma.
Trauma Education and Psychoeducation: Our Therapeutic counsellors offer education and psychoeducation about trauma. This may include helping clients understand the impact of trauma on their mental and emotional well-being, teaching coping skills, and providing resources for further learning.
