Shona Innes Psychology carefully and sensitively assesses and formulates treatment plans for young people and adults who have experienced trauma or have been exposed to crime who are recovering from trauma or a criminal act against them

These services are delivered privately and at the request of child protection, trauma support agencies, domestic violence support groups, and other community agencies and health providers.

Services include making sense of traumatic incidents across the many stresses of the life span for those who have been affected by violence, sexual assault, significant bullying, stalking, catastrophic events, traffic accidents or who have been witness to serious crime. Careful plans for adjustment are made through a trauma focused lens.

Shona Innes Psychology also provides support services for the carers – family members and case workers involved in the direct care of victims of crime.
