Trauma Therapy and PTSD Counselling
Psychological Therapy in Menai and the Sutherland Shire
At Evolving Minds Counselling and Psychology, we provide trauma informed therapy and PTSD counselling for children, adolescents and adults from our Menai practice and online, supporting people across the Sutherland Shire and online across Sydney and Australia.
Trauma can shape how you feel, think, and relate to the world. After distressing experiences such as abuse, neglect, family violence, discrimination, or ongoing stress, many people notice changes in their emotions, sleep, sense of safety, or connection with others.
Trauma therapy can support recovery from PTSD, complex trauma, and distressing life experiences.
You may notice:
-
feeling constantly on edge
-
emotional numbness or disconnection
-
sleep difficulties
-
intrusive memories or reminders
-
withdrawing from relationships
Trauma therapy can help you to:
-
understand your responses
-
feel safer in your body
-
reduce overwhelm and reactivity
-
rebuild trust and connection
-
strengthen stability and wellbeing
Whether trauma occurred once or developed over time, recovery is possible.

Our Approach
We use evidence-based, trauma-informed therapies that address both psychological and nervous system responses to trauma.
Therapy supports you to understand your responses, restore a sense of safety in your body, and build emotional stability and a sense of reconnection. Sessions move at a pace that respects your readiness and personal history.
We also support parents and caregivers to break patterns of intergenerational trauma, strengthen attachment, and build emotionally connected relationships with their children.
