| The
PTSD Treatment team is made up of psychotherapist Edward
Sim and consultant psychiatrist Dr. Mike Bott. We have
been treating accident casualties with psychological
symptoms since 2001.
As well as treating people suffering
from post traumatic stress disorder, we also look after
those suffering from phobias, complicated grief, panic
attacks, stress and psychological problems resulting
from sexual or physical abuse.
Edward was trained as a therapist and
then undertook further studies in the USA by the founder
of EMDR, Dr Francine Shapiro to Level 2 certification
in 1998. He was granted UK Council for Psychotherapy
accreditation in 2001. Edward also has a Diploma in
Therapeutic Hypnosis and Psychotherapy Dip. THP (N-SHAP).
He has successfully treated more than 300 patients using
EMDR over the last four years.
Mike is a Consultant Psychiatrist with
many years experience assessing and treating a wide
range of patients, particularly those who have suffered
symptoms following accidents. He has developed a number
of screening methodologies which form part of the assessment
programme. Mike also specialises in helping patients
with work related stress or who are suffering from bullying.
In 2005 we co-ordinated 7/7
Trauma, a not-for-profit organisation
comprised of more than 70 mental health specialists,
that provided psychological assistance to victims of
the London bombings.
We have clinics in Brighton, Uckfield
in East Sussex and Sevenoaks, Kent. When people are
unable to leave their homes, we can organise for a home
visit.
