Online Trauma THERAPY

Thinking about starting trauma therapy can be overwhelming. After all, it was so terrible the first time, why would anyone want to go over it again? Many are concerned that trauma therapy is just reliving the worst parts of their lives, however, this is not the case.

I offer a different way to go about navigating life after trauma and inform my approach using EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Ego-State Therapy, Mindfulness and Somatic Work to ensure our methods align with your goals and what you are specifically noticing.

You can expect for us to complete an assessment so you don't have to just "bring up" some of the most difficult experiences you have been through. During this initial questionnaire you can share as many or as few details as you would like. I do this early on so we know what is in the room with us. Then we will look at how the effects of what you have gone through are showing up today and work towards alleviating these burdens, even if that seems out of reach right now.

Trauma therapy does not look the same for everyone since it impacts everyone differently. For some it may look like EMDR, where painful life experiences are re-visited and reprocessed in a safe, supportive environment that provides the security and validation that has been absent in the past. For others, it may look like focusing on accessing stability and safety now.

By processing in a unique, supported way we are able to access that healing to regain your present and your hope for the future.

In our meetings you will notice that I practice from a place of focusing on the body to integrate felt safety in the present. I have seen this become possible even for those who have a particularly difficult time feeling their body, which has granted them the ability to stay more present in all facets of their lives.
