PTSD Treatment Online

You might be suffering from psychological and somatic difficulties following a trauma. When these trauma symptoms last for longer than one month they may be classed as part of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. (PTSD). We offer online help for this difficulty.

PTSD treatment online, works in a similar way to face to face therapy. It just takes place online rather than face to face.

If you are suffering from PTSD you might experience the following symptoms: feeling on edge, acting aggressively, intrusive thoughts and feelings, as well as difficulty regulating mood.

PTSD is treatable. You do not need to leave the safety of your house to get help for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Contact us for a no obligation conversation to see if we can assist you with trauma or PTSD symptoms.

PTSD Therapist Matthew Alderton

1111

I’m Matt Alderton. I’m friendly and down to earth. I believe in a holistic approach to counselling and therapy. I enjoy and get satisfaction from people progressing in their lives.

I am a Psychotherapist accredited by The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP).

I trained for 7 years at The Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education in Paddington London to become a Counsellor and psychotherapist.

I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). This is the leading evidence based treatment for PTSD and Trauma.

Therapies I use for PTSD

Body Psychotherapy

Body Psychotherapy involves working with the body as well as the mind in order to help you with PTSD symptoms. We work with the body's nervous system to help alleviate the symptoms of PTSD. 

EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy is the leading evidence based treatment for PTSD. It is a somatic as well as psychological type of psychotherapy. It involves bilateral stimulation to help you process your trauma. 

Psychotherapy

I use psychological principles and techniques to underpin trauma therapy. This help to stabilise clients and enables you to process trauma and integrate it into your life in a safe therapeutic environment.  

What To Expect From PTSD Therapy Online

Consultation

Therapy starts with a consultation. This is where we get to know each other and start to build a therapeutic bond. We get to know you and appreciate where you are and what difficulties you are having. We discuss what it is you need to help you get better using a holistic integrative approach.

Trauma Therapy & Processing

Trauma therapy and processing is based on a strong therapeutic relationship between client and therapist. We have a past present and future focus. Cause of trauma, current difficulties and a where you would like to get to. We might also work on stabilisation, grounding and psycho-education prior to processing. Processing may involve psychotherapy, EMDR therapy or Cognitive Processing Therapy.

After Processing

Once trauma is processed the natural recovery process can begin. This can be helped by further therapy to assist with associated difficulties or problems you might still be experiencing. Examples might be addiction, depression or anxiety. You might also feel that after your PTSD symptoms have reduced that you would like to concentrate on addressing topics around addiction, or re-engaging in meaningful relationships or reconnecting with life in general.

Session Format

The therapy takes place as part of a caring therapeutic relationship. A session takes place via Skype, Zoom or Facetime. All of these methods of online communication have end to end encryption to ensure confidentiality. An online session takes place at the same time each week and lasts for 50minutes.
