TLC is a structured trauma therapy pathway designed to support emotional stabilisation, relational healing and trauma integration.

It combines:

• Individual stabilisation therapy
• Therapist-led relational group therapy
• EMDR trauma processing (when appropriate)

Rather than rushing into trauma processing, TLC focuses first on building safety, emotional regulation and self-compassion - ensuring trauma work happens at the right pace.

TLC is designed for adults who:

• Feel emotionally stable on the surface but still struggle internally
• Experience anxiety, shame, or emotional overwhelm
• Notice repeated relational patterns or attachment difficulties
• Struggle with self-criticism, self- sabotage, or emotional disconnection
• Have experienced trauma affecting their current life and relationships
• Have tried individual therapy but feel something is missing

TLC is especially helpful for complex or relational trauma, where healing requires both individual and relational therapeutic work.

Step 1: Assessment

We begin with a comprehensive 1-to-1 assessment to understand your experiences, current difficulties and goals, and to explore whether TLC is the right fit for you.

Step 2: 1-to-1 Care Planning

Following assessment, we work together to create a personalised care plan. This helps identify the kind of support that is most appropriate for you, based on your needs, pace and therapeutic goals.

Step 3: Tailored Therapeutic Support

Your care plan may include ongoing 1-to-1 psychotherapy, EMDR, joining the TLC Relational Trauma Group, or a comibination of both. The pathway is flexible, allowing support to be tailored to what feels most helpful and manageable for you.
