Trauma therapy that will help guide you toward healing from the past.

If you’ve experienced trauma, you may feel anxious, depressed, or disconnected. Trauma therapy offers a safe, supportive space to process these experiences and begin reclaiming your sense of self.

Facts About Trauma & PTSD

  • Trauma can be a single event or repeated experiences.

  • Not everyone who experiences a traumatic event develops PTSD, but many people feel lasting effects.

  • Common symptoms of those impacted by trauma include flashbacks, nightmares, or feeling “on edge.”

  • People may avoid reminders of the trauma or feel disconnected from others.

  • Trauma affects both mind and body, showing up as stress, anxiety, or even physical tension.

  • With the right support, healing and recovery are possible.

Trauma therapy can help you to:

  • Understand how trauma has impacted your mind, body, and emotions

  • Recognize and manage triggers so they feel less overwhelming

  • Develop grounding techniques to feel calmer and more in control

  • Replace self-blame with self-compassion

  • Build resilience and healthier coping skills for daily life

  • Process painful memories safely

  • Reconnect with yourself and strengthen your sense of safety and trust in relationships

Trauma Therapy Approaches I Use

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a highly effective approach that helps the brain process painful memories so they no longer feel as overwhelming. Through guided techniques, EMDR allows you to work through traumatic memories in a safe way, lessening their intensity and helping you feel more present and in control.

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
CPT helps you gently examine and reframe the unhelpful thoughts and beliefs that can linger after trauma. Many people find themselves stuck in cycles of guilt, self-blame, or fear. CPT provides practical tools to shift those patterns, reduce distress, and see yourself and your life with greater clarity and compassion.
