Trauma Counseling

• Are you troubled by flashbacks?
• Do nightmares make sleep scary?
• Are you mistrustful of people but scared when you are alone?
• Are you carrying around a secret that no one will ever know?
• Are you numb to emotions you think you should feel?
• Did something bad happen to you; but you don’t know how to talk about it?

This is how people experience trauma. If you are a survivor of trauma, it may have affected you on many different levels. The good news is Relational Cultural Therapy can heal you on many different levels. Together we can move through ways to

• Reprocess the past using a variety of different treatments
• Separate the hurts of the past from the events of the present
• Learn how your brain can help you heal
• Use the therapy relationship as a vehicle for change and growth

If you have experienced or witnessed emotional or physical violence, a lot of counselors will bring you these services:

• Talk therapy
• EMDR-to reprocess trauma so it doesn’t hurt in the same way (I am Level II certified)
• Brain science and how it helps people heal from traumatic experiences
• Psychiatrists who prescribe medications when that is indicated.

I OFFER THOSE THINGS AND SOMETHING MORE

WHEN WE ADD RELATIONAL CULTURAL THERAPY (see link) to your treatment, This changes everything!

Relational Cultural Therapy, focuses on healing relationships, enhances these interventions

Can you even imagine trauma treatment in a safe and accepting atmosphere?

*THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO KNOW ABOUT TRAUMA TREATMENT IS THIS:

OUR FIRST TREATMENT FOCUS IS BUILDING TRUST. IF YOU HAVE BEEN BADLY HURT, SEEKING THERAPY IS AN ACT OF GREAT COURAGE. LEARNING HOW TO TRUST CAN TAKE A WHILE. BUT IT’S WORTH IT, IT’S REALLY WORTH IT.

IT IS A PRIVILEGE TO WORK WITH TRAUMA SURVIVORS.
