Trauma Therapy

Is Trauma Still Affecting Your Life?

Do you find yourself stuck in memories you can’t seem to shake? Do certain situations, places, or people trigger reactions that feel overwhelming even when you try to stay calm?

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone and I want you to know that healing is possible. My approach offers supportive, effective therapy to help you process what you’ve been through and move forward with strength and self-compassion.

What Trauma Can Look Like

Trauma affects people in deeply personal and varied ways. Whether the event happened recently or long ago, its impact can linger in both the mind and body. Some of the most common signs of unresolved trauma include:

• Intrusive thoughts or distressing memories

• Nightmares or sleep disturbances

• Feeling emotionally numb or disconnected

• Being easily startled or constantly on edge

• Avoiding reminders of the trauma

• Difficulty trusting others or feeling safe

• Intense feelings of shame, guilt, or self-blame

• Trouble concentrating or staying present

• Physical symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, or stomach issues

Trauma can stem from a wide range of experiences including abuse, accidents, violence, neglect, loss, or anything that overwhelmed your ability to cope at the time. If you recognize these symptoms, it’s not a sign of weakness... it’s a sign that your mind and body are still trying to protect you.

How Therapy Helps

Living with trauma can feel like your past is constantly intruding on your present. Therapy offers a safe, structured space to begin making sense of those experiences, without being re-traumatized in the process.

In therapy, we work together to:

• Create a sense of safety and stability, both in our therapeutic space and in your daily life

• Understand how trauma has shaped your thoughts, behaviors, and emotional responses

• Rebuild your sense of control, trust, and connection, both with yourself and others

• Develop effective coping strategies to manage flashbacks, triggers, or difficult emotions

Healing from trauma doesn’t mean forgetting the past; it means loosening its grip on your present and reclaiming your ability to live fully again.

You Don’t Have to Do This Alone

Trauma may have left you feeling isolated, helpless, or broken, but therapy can help you reconnect with your strength, your voice, and your capacity to heal. Together, we can:

• Make sense of what happened, in a way that feels safe and empowering

• Restore a sense of confidence and calm in your daily life

• Find meaning and growth in your story

• Build a future where you feel more grounded, resilient, and free
