​

The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP), an innovative approach designed to help individuals overcome trauma and regain control of their lives.

​

What is TRTP?
The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP) is a comprehensive therapeutic model created by Judith Richards, aimed at addressing and healing deep-seated trauma. Unlike traditional methods, TRTP offers a structured, step-by-step approach that focuses on transforming traumatic experiences and their lingering effects.

​

How Does TRTP Work?
TRTP is a multi-phased process that guides individuals through a transformative journey. Here’s a brief overview of the process:

​

1. Assessment and Preparation
The first step involves a thorough assessment to understand the individual’s history and current challenges. This phase prepares clients for the process by setting clear goals and ensuring they are ready for the journey ahead.

​

2. Transformative Phase
In this critical phase, TRTP utilizes a range of therapeutic techniques to address and transform traumatic memories. This may involve guided imagery, cognitive restructuring, and emotional processing. The goal is to help individuals reframe their traumatic experiences, reducing their impact on daily life.

​

3. Integration and Healing
Once the transformative phase is complete, the focus shifts to integration. Clients work on incorporating the changes into their everyday lives, building new, healthier patterns of thinking and behavior. This phase ensures that the gains made during the transformative phase are sustained over time.

​

4. Ongoing Support
TRTP recognizes that healing is an ongoing process. Therefore, continued support and follow-up sessions are available to address any residual issues and to help maintain progress.

​
