March 17 @ 8:30 am - March 20 @ 5:00 pm

Spring 2024: Trauma-focused intensive treatment programme, running the 17 to 20 March 2024.

This is a small group experience – where people benefit from both personal attention with therapists and the benefits of being within a safe group.

Led by highly experienced therapists and facilitators, including Charlotte Copeland and Rachel Millsted, those attending the programme will receive 1-1 sessions both in preparation for the programme and afterwards to integrate the experience. The 4 days provides a structured treatment programme for those seeking help with unresolved psychological trauma.

The programme is designed to provide a safe and supportive environment, to facilitate the 3 stages of trauma recovery involving: fostering a foundation psychological safety to aid addressing difficulties, processing of trauma memories, and finally integrating the experience to mobilise improvements in quality of life.

  • Family or friends of a person who is traumatised, who have been impacted themselves and who want a better understanding of psychological trauma and how to support a traumatised person.
