Trauma can have profound effects on thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationships.
Trauma-informed therapy provides a compassionate and holistic approach to addressing the complex effects of trauma on individuals’ lives. By creating a safe and empowering therapeutic environment, therapists help clients navigate their healing journey with dignity, resilience, and hope.
We address a wide range of trauma symptoms, including hypervigilance, dissociation, nightmares, flashbacks, intrusive memories, avoidance behaviors, and difficulties with trust and intimacy. We help clients process traumatic memories, reframe negative beliefs, and develop adaptive coping strategies.
Trauma-informed therapy prioritizes creating a safe and supportive environment where clients feel physically and emotionally secure. We are knowledgeable about the effects of trauma on the brain, nervous system, and overall functioning and well-being.
Trauma-informed therapy focuses on helping clients regulate their emotions, manage distressing symptoms, and develop coping skills to navigate triggers and flashbacks. We teach grounding techniques, mindfulness practices, and relaxation exercises to promote emotional stability and resilience. We respect clients’ autonomy, choices, and cultural values, and collaborate with clients to set goals and identify strategies for coping and recovery.
