Online Trauma Therapy Service

Trauma-9 Specialist Trauma Therapy Service from Scotlandtherapy Partners

There is a lack of professional trauma therapy specialists in the world today. Stuart, the lead therapist, is part of and a facilitator of an online group of Alumni Trauma Specialists spread across the world, and this lack of provision is the same pretty much everywhere.  This is partly because of the need for true trauma specialists to cross train in so many areas to provide a comprehensive service (hence the name Trauma-9). It is also partly because treating trauma therapy is often considered one of the more demanding areas of work for therapists in a variety of ways, not least the topic, the number of CPD and other training hours, and very demanding standards.

Since before the COVID pandemic Stuart has provided a significant proportion of his sessions online, and at any one time he has clients both in more distant parts of the UK, and in other parts of the world. Sessions are held in English, and according to the legal requirements and regulations of the UK, although comprehensive international professional registrations are also held to reflect this international service.
