Trauma Therapy & Counselling
Trauma Therapy & Counselling
Trauma therapy for adults living with the impact of overwhelming experiences. That might be one event that changed things, or the slow weight of hard experiences that kept happening over time. Together we draw on somatic therapy, EMDR, and parts work, giving space to both what your body holds and the story of what happened.
What is Trauma?
Trauma happens when something overwhelms us more than we can handle in the moment. It usually comes without warning and outside our control, so there’s no chance to prepare. When that happens, the body doesn’t get to fully process what it went through. The experience stays unfinished, and it can show up later in how we feel physically, emotionally, and in the way we think.
Approaches That I Integrate/Types of Therapies:
Parts Work & TIST
Attachment-Based Repair Work
