Trauma & PTSD Therapy

You Survived the Trauma. Now It’s Time to Heal From It.

Trauma changes you—but not because you’re weak. Because you’re human. Whether it was one overwhelming event or years of repeated emotional wounds, trauma doesn’t stay in the past. It lingers in your sleep, your relationships, your reactions, and even your breath.

PTSD isn’t just about flashbacks. It’s about feeling constantly on edge, avoiding anything that reminds you of it, struggling to trust, and not recognizing yourself anymore.

But healing is possible. And you don’t have to do it alone.

What Trauma Can Feel Like

Every trauma story is different, but some common experiences include:

  • Anxiety, irritability, or emotional numbness

  • Intrusive memories or nightmares

  • Feeling detached or “checked out”

  • Avoiding people, places, or topics

  • Guilt, shame, or self-blame

  • Hypervigilance—always waiting for the next bad thing

  • Difficulty sleeping or relaxing, ever

You might not even identify what happened to you as trauma—but if your body is still acting like you’re in danger, it’s time to pay attention.

How We Help You Heal

We know trauma isn’t just in your head—it’s in your nervous system, your relationships, and your sense of identity. That’s why trauma-informed therapy focuses on both emotional safety and long-term resilience.

In our sessions, you can expect:

  • A safe, judgment-free space to share at your pace

  • Evidence-based therapies like DBT, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing to help process pain without reliving it

  • Skills to manage flashbacks, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm

  • Rebuilding self-trust and healthy boundaries

  • Support to reconnect with who you are—beyond what happened to you

Whether you’re dealing with childhood trauma, abuse, violence, loss, or systemic trauma—your story deserves to be heard. And honored.

You Are Not Defined By What You Went Through

Trauma may shape part of your journey, but it doesn’t get to write the ending. Healing takes courage. It takes time. But it’s possible. And we’re here to walk it with you.
