Trauma/PTSD

Trauma therapy is a therapeutic approach designed to help individuals heal from the emotional, mental, and physical effects of past traumatic experiences. Trauma can result from events such as abuse, loss, accidents, or other life-altering situations. These experiences can leave lasting emotional scars that affect how a person thinks, feels, and interacts with the world.

​

While trauma may be experienced differently by each individual, it can lead to a variety of symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, nightmares, flashbacks, difficulties with relationships, and a heightened sense of fear or distrust. Trauma therapy helps to process and heal these wounds in a safe and supportive environment, allowing individuals to regain control over their lives and move forward with strength and resilience.

How Therapy Can Help With Trauma/PTSD:

  • Feeling more safety and freedom in your body

  • Understanding trauma and how it has been affecting you and your life

  • Relieving anxiety and panic attacks

  • Managing flashbacks, insomnia, hyper vigilance, intrusive thoughts and recurring nightmares

  • Developing coping strategies to manage triggers and overwhelming emotions 

  • ​Developing love and compassion for yourself

  • Navigating negative coping skills such as alcohol, substances, self harm or other forms of escapism or addiction

  • Restoring and building a sense of trust and connection with others and the outside world

  • Reclaiming your personal power, self-worth, and confidence to move forward with hope and resilience

  • Reducing physical symptoms such as tension or chronic pain
