When trauma therapy makes sense
Distressing events such as accidents, violence, loss, medical procedures or repeated experiences in childhood and at work can manifest as flashbacks, sleep disturbance, hyperarousal, avoidance, concentration problems, emotional withdrawal and physical symptoms. Specialist trauma therapy helps you process these experiences so they no longer dominate daily life.
Treatment at the Munich private practice of Doctor-medic Otilia Gudana follows the German S3 guidelines for PTSD. Core approaches are EMDR, trauma-focused CBT and body-oriented stabilisation techniques.
How trauma therapy unfolds
- Initial consultation (50 min): your concern, current symptoms, brief history, indication check.
- Diagnosis: structured assessment of PTSD criteria, differential diagnosis (depression, anxiety, dissociative disorders).
- Stabilisation: building safety, affect regulation, resources.
- Trauma confrontation: EMDR or trauma-focused exposure, tailored to you.
- Integration & closure: consolidating change, relapse prevention.
Appointments and waiting times
Where access to publicly funded psychotherapy in Munich often means waits of 6 to 14 months, we usually offer first appointments within 5 to 6 business days.
