CLINICAL RESEARCH AND SURVIVOR-INFORMED PRACTICE
A Clinical Bridge for Adult Survivor Recovery
Dr. Alyse Price-Tobler is a PACFA-registered clinical psychotherapist, specialist trauma clinician, researcher, clinical supervisor, author, and international speaker in the field of child psychological abuse in contexts of “parental alienation,” familial abduction, estrangement, coercive control, and related CPA-PA, CPA-PAA, and CPA-PERA presentations.
Her twin doctoral research at the University of the Sunshine Coast examined adult survivors of child psychological abuse related to severe “parental alienation” and the mental health practitioners who work with them. That research forms the empirical foundation of the Healing Qualia Treatment Protocol.
Her work is grounded in doctoral research, specialist clinical practice, lived experience, frontline service, emergency response, authorship, clinical supervision, and sustained commitment to people who have been misunderstood, misclassified, silenced, or left without appropriate treatment.
SPECIALIST FOCUS
Where Clinical Practice, Research, and Complex Trauma Meet
Specialist Clinical Scope
Dr. Price-Tobler works clinically with targeted parents, adolescents, adult survivors, and families affected by familial abduction, concealment, reunification disruption, familicide, homicide, suicide, coercive family systems, attachment disruption, and complex intergenerational relational trauma.
Healing Qualia Treatment Protocol
The HQTP is a phase-based specialist clinical framework for adult survivors whose development, identity, attachment, relational safety, and capacity to trust their own perceptions were shaped inside coercive and high-conflict family systems.
Frontline and Emergency Response
Her background includes work with first responders, emergency service personnel, critical incident counselling, EAP support, the NSW Government Redress Scheme, and long-term volunteer service with the NSW State Emergency Service.
AUTHORSHIP AND RESEARCH
A Three-Volume Clinical and Research Pathway
Dr. Price-Tobler’s published and forthcoming work translates survivor accounts, practitioner insight, and specialist clinical formulation into resources for mental health professionals, adult survivors, medical practitioners, legal professionals, and researchers.
VOLUME ONE

Disrupting the Intergenerational Trauma Cycle of High Conflict Divorce
Volume One examines adult-child survivors of severe child psychological abuse related to “parental alienation,” the gaps in practitioner understanding, and the need for targeted professional development and evidence-based treatment pathways.
VOLUME TWO

Navigating the Maze During Treatment of Adult Survivors
Volume Two centers practitioner insight from mental health professionals working with adult survivors, offering strategies, risk awareness, and clinical orientation for complex child psychological abuse presentations.
VOLUME THREE

Healing Qualia Treatment Protocol
The forthcoming Healing Qualia volume introduces a structured, trauma-informed, non-forensic clinical treatment framework organized around safety, stabilization, meaning reconstruction, grief integration, trauma integration readiness, differentiation, and long-term adaptation.
SURVIVOR-LED CONFERENCE WORK
