What I Help With

Trauma & PTSD

Trauma can change how safe the world feels, how easily you trust, and how much of your life becomes organized around avoiding reminders of what happened.

Understanding trauma responses

Experiencing a traumatic event—or multiple traumatic events—can have a lasting impact. You may find yourself replaying what happened, feeling on guard, avoiding reminders, or questioning what you could have done differently. For some, these symptoms may develop into post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Trauma-focused therapy

Trauma-focused therapy can help you approach what has been difficult to face and make sense of what happened and its impact.

The goal is not to approve of what happened, forget it, or somehow make it acceptable. It is to acknowledge the reality of what happened without having to organize your life around avoiding it.

A first conversation

You do not have to explain everything at once.

A consultation can simply be a chance to ask questions, discuss fit, and decide what you want to do next.
