Online Trauma Therapy with Srab Der Trauma can leave lasting emotional, psychological and physical effects long after the event has passed. Whether your experiences stem from childhood, relationships, abuse, loss or a single overwhelming event, trauma can shape the way you think, feel, relate to others and experience the world. You may find yourself constantly anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, struggling with trust or repeating the same painful patterns in your relationships. Healing is possible. Through secure online trauma therapy, I work with clients across the UK and internationally to help them process trauma, reduce emotional distress and develop a greater sense of safety, self-compassion and resilience. Is Trauma Therapy Right for You? Trauma affects every person differently. You don’t need to have experienced war, violence or a major disaster for your experiences to have had a profound impact. Trauma therapy may help if you’re experiencing: ● Anxiety or constant worry ● Panic attacks ● Emotional numbness ● Feeling disconnected from yourself or others ● Childhood trauma ● Complex trauma (C-PTSD) ● PTSD symptoms ● Flashbacks or intrusive memories ● Hypervigilance ● Shame or self-criticism ● Difficulty trusting others ● Relationship difficulties ● Fear of abandonment ● Emotional dysregulation ● Low self-worth ● Grief and traumatic loss Understanding Trauma Trauma is not simply what happened to you. It is what happened inside you because of what happened. Many people believe they should have “moved on” by now. Yet trauma often remains stored in the nervous system, influencing thoughts, emotions, behaviours and relationships without conscious awareness. Your reactions are not signs of weakness. They are often protective responses developed to help you survive difficult experiences. My Approach to Trauma Therapy I believe healing begins when we understand rather than judge our protective patterns. My work integrates attachment-informed, trauma-informed and evidence-based therapeutic approaches to help you make sense of your experiences while moving towards lasting emotional healing. Together we may explore: ● Childhood experiences ● Attachment wounds ● Shame and self-worth ● Emotional regulation ● Trauma responses ● Anxiety and fear ● Relationship patterns ● Trust and vulnerability ● Self-compassion ● Building emotional resilience Rather than asking, “What’s wrong with you?” We’ll explore, “What happened to you?” And even more importantly, “How did you learn to survive?” Common Causes of Trauma Trauma can develop following many different experiences, including: ● Childhood neglect ● Emotional abuse ● Physical abuse ● Sexual abuse ● Domestic abuse ● Narcissistic relationships ● Bullying ● Medical trauma ● Sudden bereavement ● Accidents ● Workplace trauma ● Addiction within the family ● Growing up with emotionally unavailable parents Many people discover that what they believed were simply “personality traits” are actually understandable adaptations to earlier life experiences. What Happens During Trauma Therapy? Your first session is about understanding your story at a pace that feels safe. There is no pressure to revisit painful memories before you’re ready. Instead, we’ll begin by understanding: ● Your current difficulties ● Your life experiences ● Your strengths ● Your goals ● The patterns keeping you stuck ● What healing might look like for you Therapy is not about reliving trauma. It is about helping you process it safely so that it no longer controls your present. Why Choose Online Trauma Therapy?

Yes. Many people begin trauma therapy decades after the original experience and still experience meaningful healing and growth. Do I need a PTSD diagnosis? No. You do not need a diagnosis to benefit from therapy. Many people experience the effects of trauma without meeting the criteria for PTSD. How many sessions will I need? Healing is different for everyone. Some people benefit from short-term therapy, while others choose longer-term work to address deeper attachment wounds and long-standing patterns.

With the right support, it is possible to understand your experiences, reconnect with yourself and build a life that is no longer controlled by the past.
