Sometimes there can be aspects of us behaving against our wish or control. We can become overwhelmed from thoughts or feelings. We might fear sensations, display paradoxical and contradictory behaviours or experience unexplained medical conditions. Research tells us these can be consequences of unresolved trauma.
My goal is to help you move beyond surviving trauma and create a more balanced and fulfilling life, developing strength and resilience to develop your highest potential.
Prahlad Ilex Galbiati Body Psychotherapist Trauma Specialist
How I can help
I believe in the inherent wisdom of the body and its ability to heal when provided with the right context. I work to create a safe and compassionate space where you can learn and delve into the exploration, processing and integration of your experiences and evolve with them. I support people in understanding, and growing from the consequences of both, shock trauma and developmental trauma, through a down to earth, relational and somatic approach (expanding the awareness of the body).
I specialise in working with a range of challenges, including:
- Expanding resources
- Understanding emotions increasing emotional resilience
- Loss
- Stress related conditions
- Depression, Fatigue, Lethargy
- Shock experiences/states
- PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), Complex PTSD
- Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE’s)
- Dissociative disorders
- Extra sensory experiences, out of body experiences,
- Trauma symptoms like insomnia, digestive track disorders, auto-immune diseases etc.
- Relationship issues
- Neurodiversity
- SSP (Safe and Sound Protocol) provider, RRP (Rest and Restore Protocol) provider
How I Work
To create the most effective therapeutic experience, we begin by establishing a clear and realistic therapeutic contract that outlines your needs and goals. This contract will guide our work together and help track your progress as we adjust our approach along the way.
We’ll look at the family system and ancestors and the resources and values gained from them as well as relevant events, crisis, losses informing and shaping the development years. We’ll familiarise and practice being curious of how the body is expressing, on a moment-to-moment basis, because the consequences of trauma are ultimately a physiological matter that cannot be resolved only using a cognitive approach.
We’ll use Mindful based and relational intervention as well as cognitive, science-based understanding of why experiences are the way they are — and how the body plays a role in that — is key. Our work will include space for learning and gaining deeper insights. With empathy and patience, I will guide you to cultivate curiosity and self-awareness, which are essential for lasting transformation.
We will work with your body using specific interventions, movement, and exercises that address the psychological themes relevant to you while increasing emotional intelligence. You will also be given exercises to practice outside of our sessions as homework, to further support the therapeutic process and your post-traumatic growth.
My Clinical Experience
For over two and a half decades, I’ve supported people in processing and healing from the effects of shock trauma and developmental trauma. My background includes practicing Craniosacral Therapy since 1998, which has deepened my understanding of the body’s role in healing. This experience allows me to offer a grounded, down-to-earth approach that integrates both mind and body. I have an extensive experience in treating trauma in one to one and group settings having worked and directed a residential trauma centre for 13 years addressing PTSD, C-PTSD and dissociative disorders.
Taking the Next Step:
Reaching out for support can feel daunting, but it’s a brave, powerful and necessary step towards change. If you’re ready to explore how therapy could help you, I’d be honoured to support you on your journey. Whether you’re looking for individual sessions or group work, we’ll create a plan tailored to your unique needs. You deserve a life where you feel balanced, connected, and empowered. Let’s work together to make that a reality.
