TRAUMA AND PTSD SUPPORT

Trauma is a deeply distressing or disturbing experience that can have profound and lasting effects on an individual's mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) develops in some people who have experienced a shocking, scary, or dangerous event. Symptoms can include intrusive thoughts (flashbacks, nightmares), avoidance of reminders, negative changes in thoughts and mood, and hyperarousal (being easily startled, irritability). The impact of trauma can feel overwhelming, making it difficult to trust, feel safe, or engage in daily life.


At Healing Words Therapy, we offer a sensitive, informed, and compassionate approach to help you process past traumas and reduce their emotional intensity. Our therapists are trained in specialized, evidence-based techniques designed for trauma recovery. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a highly effective therapy that helps process traumatic memories, reducing their emotional charge. Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) helps you understand and change the distressing thought patterns associated with trauma. We also integrate somatic approaches to address how trauma impacts the body, and DBT skills to build resilience and manage overwhelming emotions. Our goal is to create a safe space for you to heal, to help you understand your reactions to trauma, and to empower you to reclaim your sense of safety, agency, and hope for the future.
