Welcome to the Register of Trauma
Specialists
The Register of Trauma Specialists
(RTS) exists to promote the services of trauma
support workers and therapists working in the UK with a special interest in assisting with Post
Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and trauma related conditions and syndromes.
We do this by inviting individual therapists to register
with us and by making details of their services and contact details available on
this web site. Registrants are encouraged to maintain
memberships of appropriate professional bodies and associations. This register is
independent and carries out its work by promoting this well established web site.
