Nara Health
Trauma

Care after a frightening or distressing event.

Our clinical psychologists treat the effects of trauma with trauma-focused CBT and EMDR, the two therapies the World Health Organization recommends for post-traumatic stress disorder.

What we see

After an event such as an accident, an assault, a sudden loss or a medical emergency, many people have memories that intrude, trouble sleeping, a sense of being on guard, or a wish to avoid reminders. For many, this eases in the weeks that follow. When it lasts longer than a month or gets in the way of life, it may be post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

How we work

  • A first consultation. You do not need to describe what happened in detail.
  • Time to feel steady first, before any work on memories begins.
  • Trauma-focused CBT or EMDR, chosen with you.
  • Psychiatric care if sleep, mood or anxiety need treating alongside therapy.
About EMDR →

Long-standing or repeated trauma

When trauma was repeated or went on for a long time, such as in childhood, treatment usually takes longer and builds stability first. Your plan sets this out before you begin.

Language and fees

In English, Bahasa Indonesia or both. Your first consultation is Rp 1,500,000 for our founding group of clients (regular fee Rp 2,000,000), and you'll know the cost of anything further before you begin.

Questions

Will I have to talk about what happened?

Not in detail at the start. Your psychologist needs a broad picture, and you decide what to share and when.

Which is better, EMDR or trauma-focused CBT?

Both are recommended for PTSD. Your psychologist explains each one and you choose together.

What if I am not safe right now?

Nara is not an emergency service. If you are at immediate risk, go to the nearest hospital emergency department, or call 119 extension 8 (Kementerian Kesehatan, free, 24 hours).
