Iwona Drozdz

I am a trauma-informed IFS trained Level 2 therapist, a Somatic IFS Level 3 therapist, a Somatic EMDR Practitioner, and a Brainspotting Phase 2 practitioner.

I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP Level 2) for working with Complex Trauma (C-PTSD) recognised by ITTI (International Trauma Training Institute), a Certified Somatic Therapy Practitioner (CSTFP) and a TIST (Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment) Certified Therapist (view profile here). I also hold a certificate as an NLP practitioner and a Narcissistic Abuse Specialist™. ​

To effectively implement trauma-informed practice, understanding the neurobiological effects of trauma is crucial, informing strategies that promote safety, trust, and resilience, and preventing re-traumatisation. In my practice, neuroscience is applied to support healing in the aftermath of trauma. Trauma is not just an event but a profound emotional and physiological experience that can shape every aspect of a person’s life. When a person experiences trauma, whether from a single event or ongoing adversity, the body and mind often respond with intense survival mechanisms designed to protect them. While these responses are necessary in the moment of danger, they can become ingrained in the nervous system, leaving lasting effects that reminders of the trauma may trigger.

Therapy can be a powerful tool for addressing the effects of trauma and helping individuals heal. The approach to trauma therapy is deeply rooted in creating a safe and supportive environment where healing can unfold at a comfortable pace.​ Through continued professional development courses, I have become accustomed to combining therapeutic methods, such as Body Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, Somatic EMDR and Mindfulness, to facilitate a reconnection with the body and self. I am committed to delivering such interventions in a compassionate, collaborative, and inclusive way.

An initial session will provide the opportunity for us to discuss what brings you to therapy and will enable you to get a feel for how I work and whether you would like to continue to work with me longer term.

It is important that you find a therapist you feel comfortable with and an initial session will allow you to decide whether you think I am the right therapist for you.

The process of healing following a loss or a significant life event requires patience and time. Each and every one of us will be affected in our own way. You may be feeling helpless and perhaps hopeless. Whether you are struggling with ongoing anxiety or depression, a loss experience, or a life transition, hopes and dreams may be lost as well. Yet you are exploring counselling, which implies that you hold hope for your future.

I have experience working with people presenting with various issues, including but not limited to: depression, anxiety, emotional, physical and sexual abuse, trauma, PTSD, CPTSD, interpersonal problems, loss and bereavement, and eating disorders.

As your psychotherapist, I will provide you with a confidential, non-judgmental space in which you can feel safe to tell your story, express your feelings and fears and feel heard. I will support you in exploring feelings that you find painful and distressing.
