Trauma Therapy in
Cheltenham

At Aaron Shaw Psychology, I provide evidence-based trauma therapy for adults across Cheltenham who are struggling with the emotional impact of distressing or overwhelming experiences.

​

People often seek support when they notice they are feeling emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, or find themselves repeatedly affected by past experiences in their daily life.

​

Trauma can impact how you think, feel, relate to others, and respond to everyday situations. Therapy provides a safe and confidential space to explore these experiences at your own pace and begin working towards recovery and emotional stability.

Therapy can support individuals experiencing:

​

• Flashbacks or intrusive memories

• Emotional numbness or disconnection

• Heightened anxiety or alertness

• Avoidance of certain places, people, or situations

• Difficulty trusting others

• Emotional overwhelm or shutdown

• Sleep difficulties linked to distressing experiences

• Feeling “stuck” in past events

Trauma therapy focuses on helping you understand how past experiences continue to affect your present thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.

​

Together, we may work on:

​

• creating a sense of safety and stability

• understanding emotional triggers and responses

• reducing avoidance patterns

• processing difficult memories at a manageable pace

• improving emotional regulation

• rebuilding a sense of control and trust

My approach is evidence-based and adapted to your individual needs and readiness.

​

Therapy may include:

​

• Trauma-informed psychological therapy

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

• Compassion-focused approaches

• Grounding and stabilisation techniques

• Emotional regulation strategies

The pace of therapy is always guided by you.
