experiencing trauma can change everything.
Maybe it was a single event, or maybe it’s been a buildup over time — a car accident, a violent encounter, childhood abuse, medical trauma, or something harder to name. Trauma affects every part of you: physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. And sometimes, it can feel like you’re stuck in survival mode, unable to exhale.
Living with trauma or PTSD can also mean confronting the loss of safety, trust, or identity. You may find yourself questioning your reactions, your relationships, or even your sense of reality.
You may be experiencing symptoms like:
Flashbacks or intrusive memories
Hypervigilance or feeling constantly on edge
Emotional numbness or detachment
Avoidance of places, people, or situations
Difficulty sleeping or frequent nightmares
Irritability, anger, or sudden emotional outbursts
Shame, guilt, or self-blame
Feeling disconnected from your body or surroundings
Trouble concentrating or making decisions
Loss of interest in things you used to enjoy
You want to feel safe again — in your body, in your relationships, in your day-to-day life. We use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) to help you process trauma, regulate emotions, and rebuild a sense of control. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting — it means reclaiming your life.
Trauma leaves a lasting imprint.
What you’re experiencing today is not a sign of weakness, instability, or failure. It is a valid and appropriate response to something overwhelming. When trauma is left unprocessed, it can continue to affect your physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing — often in ways that feel confusing or out of your control.
In trauma therapy, we’ll offer you a safe and structured space to explore what happened, rather than avoid or suppress it. Using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), we’ll help you process painful memories, regulate intense emotions, and build coping strategies so you can begin to feel safe, connected, and empowered in your life again.
Express
Your experiences and emotions—whatever they may be. Fear, anger, numbness, confusion, or sadness. Everything is valid, accepted, and honored here.
Normalize
Your reactions. Trauma responses are not flaws—they’re survival strategies. Understanding how trauma affects the brain and body can help you feel less alone and more empowered.
Extend
Compassion to yourself. You’ve been through something overwhelming. Healing takes time, and it’s unfair to expect yourself to “just get over it.”
Learn
Practical coping strategies through EMDR and DBT. Receive support for difficult moments and begin to rebuild a sense of safety, connection, and control.
Our Approach to Therapy for Trauma and PTSD
We offer a mix of support, strategies, and tools to help you navigate the impact of trauma. Therapy is a space where you can safely share your experiences—including the ones you’ve never spoken aloud—and begin to make sense of how trauma has shaped your body, mind, and relationships.
Using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), we’ll guide you through practical techniques that reduce emotional overwhelm, build resilience, and restore a sense of control. You won’t be judged, rushed, or “fixed.” Instead, you’ll be met with compassion, curiosity, and care.
