Struggling With the Effects of Past Trauma?
Many adults live with the lasting effects of trauma, which can show up as anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties, or feeling on edge. These reactions can follow a single event or develop over time and may start to affect your daily life. Trauma counselling for adults offers a safe and confidential space to work through these difficulties.
Book an appointment with one of our specialists today to begin your trauma counselling journey.
What Is Trauma Counselling?
Adult trauma counselling is a talking therapy that helps you understand and process the effects of distressing or overwhelming experiences. It focuses on how trauma affects your thoughts, emotions, and behaviour, both now and in the past. With support from a trained consultant, trauma counselling can help you develop coping strategies and feel more in control of how you react to trauma triggers.
Trauma Counselling Services We Offer
We provide trauma counselling for adults using an integrative counselling approach, in which our consultants specialists adapt therapy to your needs rather than using a single fixed method.
Our consultants work with three main approaches:
- Person centred therapy, where you are in control of the sessions and supported to reflect on your experiences at your own pace
- Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBH), a goal orientated approach involving practical work to help you understand how your thoughts and feelings influence your behaviour
- Psychodynamic therapy, exploring how early life experiences, including childhood, may influence how you think, feel, and respond, helping to build greater self awareness
Our trauma counselling service begins with an initial assessment with a specialist counsellor to understand your experiences and needs. You will then attend one to one counselling sessions, with therapy tailored to your personal needs and agreed goals. Progress is reviewed regularly, with next steps discussed throughout your care.
Who Is Trauma Counselling For?
Trauma counselling may be suitable if you are feeling overwhelmed, easily triggered, or finding it hard to regulate your emotions. You may notice ongoing anxiety, low mood, or symptoms of depression that are affecting your daily life.
This service may help if past experiences continue to impact how you feel, think, or respond to situations, even if the trauma happened some time ago. It is suitable for adults aged 18 and over who are seeking face to face support within a private clinic setting.
Do I Need a Referral for Trauma Counseling?
You do not need a GP or professional referral to access trauma counselling at Mid Ulster Clinic, you can book an appointment with one of our specialists directly. Many people seek private counselling due to long waiting times for NHS mental health services – our service allows you to access support more quickly, at a time that suits you.
If you have been referred by a GP or another healthcare professional, we are happy to accept this. With your consent, your specialist can also work alongside other professionals involved in your care where appropriate.
How Many Trauma Counselling Sessions Will I Need?
The number of trauma counselling sessions you may need varies from person to person. Some people find a small number of sessions helpful, while others benefit from longer term support. Your specialist will discuss this with you during your assessment and review progress with you as therapy continues.
There is no pressure to commit to a set number of sessions, and you remain in control of how long you continue with counselling.
