Tuğrul was held captive in Libya in 2017 for eight months. His ordeal led to extreme symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, including nightmares and pent-up anger. He came to Trauma Treatment International for help.

A TTI therapist worked with Tuğrul for six months, using cognitive behavioural therapy to help him recover from his
PTSD and become the husband and father his family deserved. He says he’ll be forever grateful to TTI.

Our UK-based clinical psychologists work with clients from across the world.

These are people who need help after being affected by traumatic life events like war and displacement.

Actor Christopher Harper tells the Tuğrul’s story as part of our BBC Radio 4 Appeal. Click below to hear the appeal.
