How it works
Addresses 'stuck points' — trauma-related beliefs that maintain avoidance and emotional numbing. Includes trauma narrative work and cognitive restructuring of guilt, shame, and safety appraisals.
Requires a trauma-trained therapist. The process of engaging with traumatic material can temporarily increase distress — this is normal and passes. Must be approached at the person's pace.
Finding a practitioner
Seek a qualified and registered practitioner. In Australia, check AHPRA (ahpra.gov.au) for registered health practitioners including physiotherapists, psychologists, and Chinese medicine practitioners.
