Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT) is one of the most effective treatments for managing trauma. By identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns, I help you develop practical tools for daily life.

When Trauma Disrupts Everyday Life

Trauma can affect individuals, children, parents, carers and the wider family. You may notice anxiety, emotional outbursts, withdrawal, flashbacks, nightmares, difficulty concentrating, changes in mood or behaviour, or a sense that life no longer feels safe or predictable. It can be hard to know how to help someone you care about, especially when they seem overwhelmed or stuck. With the right support and structure, recovery is possible.

A Structured Approach to Trauma Recovery

At the practice of Dr Ian Newey, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers a clear, evidence-based way to support recovery after trauma.

TF-CBT combines proven CBT techniques with a trauma-sensitive approach. It can help clients understand the impact of trauma, manage overwhelming emotions, process difficult memories safely, reduce anxiety and fear, and rebuild confidence, resilience and stability.

It is not about reliving trauma unnecessarily. It is about learning how to manage difficult experiences so they no longer dominate everyday life.
