What Is Trauma Therapy?
Trauma therapy is a specialized form of counseling that focuses on helping individuals untangle the impact of distressing events. These could include abuse, neglect, accidents, loss, or other circumstances that left a lasting emotional mark. The goal isn’t just to cope with the aftermath but to find ways to reclaim peace, rebuild trust, and empower yourself to move forward.
Our trauma therapy services are rooted in evidence-based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). These approaches work to help you process past experiences while building resilience and practical coping skills for the present.
Signs You May Need Trauma Therapy
If you’ve experienced trauma, you may notice its effects in various areas of your life. Common signs include:
​
-
Persistent feelings of fear, guilt, or shame
-
Difficulties trusting others or forming relationships
-
Flashbacks or nightmares that disrupt your peace of mind
-
Avoiding situations or reminders linked to your trauma
-
Emotional numbness or overwhelming sadness
-
Heightened anxiety, irritability, or anger
​
These symptoms are your mind’s way of responding to unprocessed pain, but they don’t have to define your future.
