Accredited mental health training and Complex PTSD recovery
I do two things. I teach accredited Mental Health First Aid courses live on Zoom across Australia, and I help adults recover from Complex PTSD through therapy and online programs.
I am Dal Sahota, Clinical Hypno-Psychotherapist, Principal Master Mental Health Educator and MHFA Australia Licensed Instructor. Whether you are learning to support others or starting your own recovery, you will be working with me personally.

Capable on the outside, exhausted on the inside
Complex PTSD develops from prolonged or repeated trauma, often beginning in childhood. If you live with overthinking, people pleasing, shutdown, constant tension or reactions that never quite make sense, that is not a personality flaw. It is a nervous system that adapted to survive, and it can learn something different.
Dal is a Clinical Hypno-Psychotherapist who specialises in Complex PTSD. Her programs, under the CPTSD Rewired brand, are built on evidence-based trauma frameworks and focus on safety and regulation before deeper work begins. Start with the free quiz, and your results will explain what your reactions are protecting you from.
Free, private, and takes only a few minutes.

The flagship Complex PTSD recovery program, created and delivered by Dal Sahota.
What participants say about training with Dal
“Dal is a natural teacher who clearly knows her stuff. While I’m well versed in mental health issues, Dal taught me some concepts and approaches to dealing with folks in crisis that I wasn’t aware of or had forgotten. She has an easy going nature that made everyone in my class feel comfortable and able to contribute. And I don’t think I ever saw her refer to notes. I suspect she knows the course off by heart. I’m so glad I renewed my MHFA accreditation with Dal.”Dean Yates, Author of “Line in the Sand”
MHFA Refresher participant

Dal was engaging and spoke with confidence and made us feel comfortable in engaging in group activities.

Thank you Dal for being so patient and answering questions to help us better understand different situations. You are so kind and so thoughtful. I am so grateful you were our trainer and thank you for the knowledge and keeping it engaging. I am so pleased I was able to complete the course with you. Many thanks , Jodie Adams”Jodie Adams
