Your trauma keeps
getting triggered.

Most people who start trauma-focused or EMDR therapy with us feel like they will never fully heal from their trauma. Perhaps you can relate.

Maybe you feel like you want to escape your life or you don’t know how to move forward and leave this pain in the past.

Stuck in negativity and feeling out of control, you may feel like life is simply too hard.

Do you feel ashamed, lost, hopeless?

Do any of the following resonate with you?

You feel your trauma in your body all over again whenever you get triggered.
You don't feel in control of your emotions and reactions.
You feel like your trauma is waiting for you around every corner.
You feel like your trauma is your identity.
You don't know how to calm down.

If these sound true for you, we want you to know that even though you might feel like a failure for needing help, that couldn't be further from the truth. It takes courage to become aware about what you are going through and ask for help.

Even if you don't believe you deserve care, you do. You deserve to take care of yourself.

How does trauma-focused therapy or EMDR therapy work?

Trauma-focused therapy or EMDR therapy consists of 50-minute, one-on-one sessions that help you work through your concerns. In addition to listening, your therapist will focus on what skills and resources you need to react less and live life more freely, they play an active role.

Here’s how it will work step-by-step:

1

First, your therapist will begin by understanding your unique experiences and identify target trauma memories to address during therapy.

2

Next, you and your therapist will create together all of the coping skills and resources you will need to take care of yourself while you are working on your trauma in therapy.

3

We’ll figure out the best way for YOU to heal – your comfort and autonomy are prioritized.

4

Over the course of our sessions, you will start to feel less triggered and that your trauma is something bad that happened to you, but no longer defines you.

Research shows that trauma-focused therapy and EMDR therapy can positively change your thinking, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors. It can help you let go of what’s holding you back.
