APT Services Ltd

Welcome to APT Services Ltd, a private practice located in Christchurch, New Zealand. We specialize in providing a comprehensive range of therapy, counseling, social work services, and professional supervision.

At APT Services Ltd, we understand the importance of addressing trauma and its impact on individuals' lives. That's why we offer Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) as an adjunctive treatment approach for trauma. TCTSY focuses on the development of physical and emotional regulation, helping individuals with PTSD find acceptance with their internal experiences and develop alternative strategies to manage distress.

Early childhood trauma often manifests as dysregulation in the body. Through TCTSY, we help individuals increase their interoception and notice the connection between their emotions and their body. By focusing on breathing and sensations in the present moment, our clients can learn that the sensations they experience are tolerable and transitory, ultimately supporting regulation rather than ignoring their internal state.

Key concepts in TCTSY include Practice Making Choices, Present Moment Experience, Taking Effective Action, and Creating Rhythms/Predictability. By incorporating these principles into our therapy sessions, we empower individuals to become aware of sensations rising and falling, breaking free from frozen states and anticipating the end of discomfort.

At APT Services Ltd, we are committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for our clients. Whether you're seeking therapy, counseling, social work services, or Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga, our experienced team is here to help you on your journey to healing and well-being.

Visit us at our location on Whiteleigh Avenue in Christchurch, and let us support you in your path towards a healthier and happier life.
