I've created this trauma recovery kit to help you start to recover from trauma straight away. It's based on over 20 years of delivering therapy for anxiety and trauma. I've designed it to help you make sense of the experiences you are having and give you some of the key strategies that I use with my trauma-focused therapy clients so that you can get help immediately.
​The Trauma Recovery Kit includes:
​
1. The "Is this trauma?" guide to help you help you understand what you're experiencing, and why your symptoms makes sense.
​
2. Three coping strategies that I use in trauma-focused therapy that will help you cope with distress and regulate your nervous system.
3. Audio files of a trauma-focused coping strategy I teach all my EMDR therapy clients. I guide you through it in real time.
​
4. A coping card, which is a reminder of key ideas and strategies that you can save in your camera roll.
5. A guide for the important people in your life. I've written a guide that you can share with the people who care about you, so that they can get a better understanding of what you're experiencing and how best to support you. I've included it because I know how hard it can be for partners, friends and family to grasp what trauma symptoms are really like and why you can't simply think your way out of it, put it behind you, or let it go.​
