Trauma & PTSD Therapy
Healing is possible. You don’t have to carry this alone.
Trauma isn’t just what happened to you — it’s how your mind and body were impacted. It can stem from a single event, long-term experiences, or relational wounds that leave you feeling unsafe, unseen, or out of control.
Trauma might look like:
-
A history of abuse or neglect (emotional, physical, sexual)
-
Medical trauma or birth trauma
-
Loss, accidents, or natural disasters
-
Witnessing violence or growing up in a high-stress environment
-
Feeling stuck in survival mode, even when things are “fine”
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a response to trauma that affects your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and nervous system.
You might notice:
-
Intrusive thoughts or flashbacks
-
Avoidance of reminders
-
Nightmares or sleep issues
-
Hypervigilance, startle response, or panic
-
Feeling numb, detached, or overwhelmed
-
Guilt, shame, or a constant sense of danger
-
You don’t need a formal diagnosis to deserve support. If your past is interfering with your present, trauma-informed therapy can help.
How Trauma Therapy Helps
Healing trauma is about more than talking. It’s about creating safety in your body, restoring trust in yourself, and gently untangling the past from your present.
In therapy, we work to:
-
Process trauma without retraumatization
-
Understand how trauma shows up in your thoughts, behaviors, and body
-
Rebuild a sense of self, safety, and control
-
Develop grounding, calming, and boundary-setting tools
-
Heal relationships — with others and with yourself

You're Not “Too Much” or “Too Broken”
Trauma often whispers lies — that you’re weak, overreacting, or damaged. But you are not the trauma. You are the survivor of it. And you deserve healing that honors both your pain and your strength.
