Eastern Melbourne Psychology - Complex Trauma - Eastern Melbourne Psychology

Change. Grow. Thrive.

Eastern Melbourne Psychology is located in Croydon and Eltham. Louise offers an empathetic and warm environment where you will be supported by Louise to make the changes you seek in your life.

Challenging life events are common - either during our childhood or later in life. Sometimes we manage to move forward, but often the effects linger and impact our current lives. We might notice this in the way we view ourselves, in our relationships, and the way we perceive the world. At other times, we might not know why we feel as we do, but we know we want some type of change to occur. We may feel that we are not living our life to the fullest, that we feel depressed or anxious, or that we feel 'stuck'.

However, we can change, grow, and thrive.

If you feel ready to get started, just call, text, or email Louise, and we can go from there. I look forward to hearing from you.

Bullying

Bullying is can be experienced at any stage of life. It is often a traumatic event that can leave long-lasting psychological scars (click here to read Louise's research on bullying). This includes low self-esteem and low self-confidence, negative self-beliefs, social anxiety, and low mood. Seeking the support of a psychologist will help you understand and reframe these experiences to leave you feeling more empowered and confident.

Complex Trauma

Complex trauma is an umbrella term that describes patterns of thinking and behaving that have developed in response to experiences of childhood abuse and neglect. These patterns were developed as a way of coping with trauma and were were helpful and adaptive at the time. However, the same patterns often continue long after the trauma has ended and may be less helpful in our later lives. Understanding these patterns is the first step to moving forward. If you would like to get started on this path, reach out to us. Recovery is possible.
