Brendan Turner
Hello, I'm Brendan, a trauma-informed therapist in Brisbane, supporting a range of clients, including adults, teenagers, couples, people with disabilities, and people of diverse cultural backgrounds, sexualities and gender identities.
A safe, collaborative approach
I understand how difficult it can be to find the "right fit" when you are looking for a new therapist. I also went on my own journey to find support with healing from my traumatic experiences growing up in a religious cult. Nothing really helped until I found a therapist who had done significant personal work, and was able to create a safe space for me to be emotionally vulnerable and begin healing the trauma held in my body.
After 12 years experience in clinical practice and completing 200+ hours of my own personal work, I know how important it is to provide my clients with safety, attunement and authenticity in building a therapeutic relationship. I take a collaborative, paced and non-pathologising approach, and support clients with healing the underlying attachment patterns and unresolved trauma that contribute to nervous system dysregulation and emotional distress.
