Trauma can affect every part of a person’s life—emotions, relationships, and even physical health. It can result from experiences like abuse, accidents, loss, or witnessing distressing events. While everyone responds differently, unresolved trauma often leads to anxiety, depression, or difficulties in daily functioning.
At Mental Health Counselor PLLC, our mission is to provide safe and effective trauma-focused therapy that helps individuals process painful experiences and move toward healing.
What Is Trauma Therapy?
Trauma therapy is a specialized form of counseling that supports individuals in addressing the emotional impact of traumatic events. Rather than ignoring or suppressing the pain, therapy provides healthy ways to understand, cope, and gradually release the weight of trauma.
Techniques often include:
-
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
-
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
-
Mindfulness-based strategies
-
Somatic approaches to reconnect with the body
