PTSD and complex trauma can affect how you think, feel, relate, and respond – even long after the original event has passed. At PsychologyCare, we provide trauma-informed therapy in Melbourne that supports nervous system regulation, safe emotional processing, and a gradual return to connection. Sessions are offered at our Malvern and Prahran clinics, with telehealth also available.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can develop after experiencing or witnessing a life-threatening, overwhelming, or deeply distressing event. Complex trauma refers to repeated or long-term exposure to traumatic stress – often during childhood or within relationships – which can affect self-perception, safety, trust, and emotional regulation.
Common signs of trauma-related distress include flashbacks, nightmares, hypervigilance, emotional numbing, dissociation, or feeling “stuck” in survival mode.
At PsychologyCare, our clinicians work with you to process trauma at your own pace. We draw on therapies such as EMDR, ISTDP, ACT and somatic approaches, depending on your needs, goals, and capacity.
Whether your trauma is single-incident or complex in nature, we provide care that respects both your story and your resilience.
Therapy moves at your pace, and your psychologist will check in regularly to ensure work remains within your window of tolerance.
