Healing from Trauma: Reclaim your life
Trauma doesn’t always look like what you see in the movies. It can be a quiet, hidden weight you carry every day. Maybe you went through something you can’t shake—a scary medical experience, painful memories from childhood, or a sexual assault that’s left you feeling disconnected. Trauma shows up in so many ways: panic attacks, sleepless nights, avoiding certain places or people, or even feeling numb and checked out. It can be exhausting to feel like you’re always on high alert, waiting for the next bad thing to happen.
Signs You Might Be Struggling with Trauma:
- Flashbacks, nightmares, or unwanted memories of a past event.
- Anxiety, panic attacks, or constantly feeling on edge.
- Avoiding reminders of the trauma, whether it’s places, people, or even thoughts.
- Feeling detached from yourself or the world around you—like you’re watching life happen from the outside.
- Trouble trusting others, feeling unsafe, or struggling with boundaries.
- Physical symptoms like headaches, stomach issues, or chronic pain that seem tied to your stress.
How We Can Help: A Safe Space for Healing
You don’t have to navigate this alone. We offer a trauma-informed approach that prioritizes your safety, comfort, and healing process. We specialize in helping you move past the pain of medical trauma, childhood trauma, and sexual assault using techniques like EMDR, a powerful tool for processing difficult memories and emotions.
- EMDR Therapy: EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a game-changer for trauma. It helps your brain process and release traumatic memories so they don’t keep controlling your thoughts and emotions. Whether it’s a medical experience that went wrong, childhood trauma, or sexual assault, EMDR can help you reclaim your peace of mind.
