You might notice yourself feeling fearful, hypervigilant, or easily upset. Maybe you’re still bothered by things from your past, or have triggers that seem to come out of nowhere. It can feel scary not to feel in control of these things.
Physical abuse, emotional abuse, neglect, sexual assault, betrayal, narcissistic abuse, medical trauma, grief/loss, threats to life or safety, etc.
Whether you’re recovering from chronic ongoing trauma or specific events, counseling is a healthy step. Together we'll work through your past to help you live in the present. We’ll work at your pace, starting with coping skills to create a sense of internal safety.
One step at a time, you can reduce your reactions to triggers, heal from guilt/shame, reduce anxiety, and offer yourself more compassion. Our goal is not to erase trauma or act like it never happened - but to reduce its impact on your life so you can move forward.
