I am a big believer that the therapeutic relationship is the most important factor to successful outcomes for survivors of trauma, the role of the therapist is not to judge or to categorize (label) someone but to understand that person as an individual, so that he or she feels seen, heard and understood. A good therapist has a deep interest in their client as an individual and will see and relate to them in ways that are sensitively tailored to the person’s specific needs. There is no one proven method of therapy – no one-size-fits-all approach to treatment, because no one person is like the other and as such, having an integrative approach to therapy is important as we gently unravel the story, carefully reveal the pain of trauma and bring healing into the arena in a tailored and collaborative approach.
