Therapy for Trauma

Sound like you?

You’ve been carrying the weight of past experiences that continue to impact your daily life. Maybe it’s a specific event, or perhaps a series of experiences that have left you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected. You might find yourself easily triggered by reminders of the past, experiencing nightmares, or feeling constantly on edge. It’s as if you’re stuck in a loop, unable to move forward no matter how hard you try.

Perhaps you’ve noticed changes in your relationships, struggling to trust others or feeling isolated from those you care about. You might be questioning your own worth, wondering if you’ll ever feel “normal” again. The world doesn’t feel as safe as it once did, and joy seems just out of reach.

You’re not alone. Many people who’ve experienced trauma feel this way, and it’s possible to heal and reclaim your life.

I’m here for you

Healing from trauma isn’t about forgetting what happened; it’s about finding a way to live fully in the present without being dominated by the past. I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your experiences without judgment. Together, we’ll navigate the complexities of your feelings and reactions, honoring your resilience while gently addressing the pain.

How I can help

Using evidence-based therapies like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Flash Technique, and Trauma-Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we’ll work together to process traumatic memories and reduce their impact on your life.

Compassionate trauma therapy session focusing on EMDR, Flash Technique and ACT

  • EMDR helps in reprocessing traumatic memories by using bilateral stimulation (like eye movements), allowing your brain to heal from emotional wounds much like it does physical ones.

  • Flash Technique is a gentle approach that allows you to process trauma without having to delve deeply into the distressing details, making healing more comfortable.

  • Trauma-Focused ACT combines mindfulness and acceptance strategies to help you engage with your thoughts and feelings in a new way, reducing their hold over you.

Trauma Therapy Can Help You:

  1. Reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and triggers

  2. Alleviate symptoms of anxiety, depression, and hypervigilance

  3. Reconnect with yourself and others in meaningful ways
