NICF Presents Comfort Without Contact

Saturday 17th May, 2025

Presenter: Isabel Stewart

Isabel has experience as a psychiatric and general nurse both at home, and abroad which has developed her relentless curiosity to understand the concepts of trauma and addiction.  This also led her to WAVE Trauma where she completed a honours degree in Psychological Trauma.

Isabel trained as a integrative counsellor and later as a sensorimotor psychotherapist, she has a private counselling practice and has worked part time as an Education Officer for WAVE Trauma since 2004.

Most of her career has been spent working in the fields of trauma and addiction, with a particular interest in working with those with more complex trauma.

Comfort Without Contact

This Workshop aims to explore the topics of both trauma and addiction and the concept of the relationship between the two, albeit an often very toxic relationship.

The workshop will examine the nature of that relationship and its development, and question if this is inevitable and if not, why not?

Also the importance of examining context and the bigger picture
