Trauma-informed therapy works with the nervous system, the body, and the mind to help create a sense of safety, trust, and connection — both within yourself and with others. Trauma can look different for everyone, and it often shows up in unexpected ways. Whether we use the word “trauma” or “overwhelm,” the experience often involves feeling so flooded or disconnected that it becomes difficult to understand or process what we’re feeling.
 

In response, we develop coping strategies — ways of moving through the world that may have once protected us but can, over time, keep us feeling stuck, isolated, or disconnected from ourselves and others.
 

Trauma-informed therapy helps us gently explore where these strategies came from and learn new ways of meeting our needs — with more choice, flexibility, and self-compassion.
 

This approach can also support you in exploring attachment patterns that may be impacting your relationships — with friends, family, co-workers, or romantic partners.
