Nyree Johnson sits down with Cathie and Neal Davies, the specialist counsellors behind Beyond PTSD, whose unique, handson model is transforming trauma support across Central Queensland. Unlike traditional services, Cathie and Neal travel directly to clients’ homes, working closely with both individuals experiencing PTSD and their carers. Their approach blends professional therapeutic training with Neal’s powerful lived experience of chronic PTSD, creating a level of insight and connection that few providers can match.

In this inspiring conversation, Cathie and Neal reveal how they identify triggers, teach practical grounding strategies, and create breakthrough “lighton” moments that empower clients to move forward with confidence. They highlight the impact of their twocounsellor model, the strong community relationships that fuel their work, and the story behind their new book Breaking Free—a compelling resource for anyone seeking hope and guidance. The book is available now on Amazon with hardcover copies available by emailing lochnee1@bigpond.com.
