Trauma Therapy in Stoke-on-Trent
At CLW Therapies, I understand that difficult or traumatic experiences can have a lasting impact on your emotional wellbeing. I offer one-to-one RTT® Therapy (Rapid Transformational Therapy) in Stoke-on-Trent, providing a safe and supportive environment where you can explore the beliefs and experiences connected to what you have been through. RTT® approaches trauma by looking beneath the experience to explore the beliefs that may have formed at the time, rather than repeatedly talking through the trauma. This can provide an opportunity to reflect on the meaning attached to past experiences and consider different perspectives. My aim is to support you in developing a greater understanding of your experiences and a renewed sense of perspective. I'm Claire Oakes, a certified RTT® Therapist, and as with any therapeutic approach, results can vary between individuals and cannot be guaranteed.
Understanding Trauma Therapy
Trauma can have a lasting impact on the way you think, feel, and respond to experiences. At CLW Therapies in Stoke-on-Trent, I offer one-to-one RTT® Therapy (Rapid Transformational Therapy) for individuals who wish to explore the beliefs and experiences connected to difficult or traumatic events.
RTT® approaches trauma by exploring what may lie beneath the experience, including beliefs that may have formed at the time. Rather than repeatedly talking through the trauma, RTT® uses a focused process to explore memories and the meaning that may have become attached to them.
RTT® was developed by Marisa Peer and draws on techniques intended to help you examine and reframe beliefs connected to past experiences. I provide a supportive environment where you can explore these experiences at your own pace and consider new perspectives.
RTT® is not a substitute for clinical care and is not positioned as a frontline treatment for severe or complex PTSD. I work alongside medical practitioners where appropriate and would never advise you to stop or remove existing clinical care. Your mental health should be reasonably stable before undertaking RTT®, and results cannot be guaranteed.
Why You Might Need Trauma Therapy
If you are experiencing anxiety, sadness, irritability, or distressing memories following a difficult or traumatic experience, you may be considering whether support could be helpful. Experiences such as personal loss, violence, abuse, or other significant events can sometimes have a lasting emotional impact.
At CLW Therapies, I offer one-to-one RTT® Therapy (Rapid Transformational Therapy) in Stoke-on-Trent for individuals who wish to explore the beliefs and experiences connected to what they have been through. RTT® provides a focused approach that aims to look beneath the experience and explore the meaning or beliefs that may have developed around it.
If you are considering RTT®, I can provide a safe and supportive space to explore your individual circumstances and discuss whether this approach may be appropriate for you.
