Assist Trauma Care

Help and Support for Individuals and Families
When trauma strikes it does so suddenly, completely out of the blue. A traumatic occurrence can take many forms - an attack, a transport incident, a fire, a bomb, war, a tsunami. What all these and many other traumatic incidents have in common is the enormous impact they have on the life of an individual or group of individuals and the overwhelming emotion generated. For those affected it feels as if life will never be the same again.

While no one would dispute the enormity of what has happened or that life can ever be the same again in some cases, especially if there has been bereavement, it is possible to recover from psychological trauma and there is help available to support people in doing so.

Many years of research have identified evidence-based therapies that can be used to help a person work through the impact and symptoms of trauma. At ASSIST Trauma Care we offer these evidence-based therapies, provided by qualified and experienced therapists, our aim being to help people to recover and move on with their lives.

At ASSIST we offer therapy to individuals and families, adults and children.

In seeking treatment for trauma it is important to distinguish between single incident and complex trauma. Please see the relevant sections for further information.
