Trauma Therapy

“The paradox of trauma is that it has both the power to destroy and the power to transform and resurrect.”

Peter A. Levine

Children: Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) addresses the mental health needs of children, adolescents, and families suffering from the destructive effects of early trauma. The treatment is particularly sensitive to the unique problems of youth with post-traumatic stress and mood disorders resulting from sexual abuse, physical abuse, violence, or grief. Because the client is usually a child, TF-CBT often brings non-offending parents or other caregivers into treatment and incorporates principles of family therapy.

Adults: Trauma can change your brain and nervous system, leading to dysregulation and symptoms such as depression and anxiety. As such, trauma therapies focus on soothing the nervous system, integrating traumatic memories, and supporting both mind and body healing. Some therapies offered include:

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

Cognitive Processing Therapy

Prolonged Exposure Therapy

Somatic and Experiential Therapies

Inner Child Work

Psychoanalytic Therapy

Narrative Therapy

Internal Family Systems Therapy

Ketamine Assisted Therapy (KAP)
