You Are Not Alone in Your Experience


Do memories of a traumatic experience feel inescapable? Are nightmares, anxiety, or the sense of being “back in that moment” affecting your daily life? Trauma can take many forms — from single incidents to ongoing abuse — and it often leaves deep emotional scars.

You may feel disconnected from yourself or others, struggle to trust, or notice intense emotional reactions that seem out of your control. Sometimes your body and mind feel like they’re stuck reliving the trauma, making it hard to focus on the present.

How Trauma Can Affect Daily Life

You might find yourself avoiding places or situations that trigger painful memories. Sleep problems, irritability, or emotional numbness can become constant companions. These reactions are normal responses to abnormal experiences — and they don’t mean you’re broken.

With the right support, it’s possible to process these memories, reduce distressing symptoms, and regain a sense of safety and control.

How We can Help You Heal from Traum & PTSD

Trauma therapy provides a safe, structured path to healing and recovery. In our sessions, you will:
 
EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps the brain process and integrate traumatic experiences. Combined with other techniques tailored to your needs, it can be transformative in helping you move forward.

What Sessions Look Like

Sessions are designed to move at your pace and create a sense of safety from the very beginning.
 
  • Early sessions focus on building trust, calming your nervous system, and helping you feel grounded. You’ll share what feels comfortable—never more than you’re ready for.
  • As we move forward, we’ll begin gently exploring how trauma shows up in your body, thoughts, and emotions. When appropriate, we may incorporate EMDR or other trauma-informed approaches to help you process painful memories safely.
  • Between sessions, you’ll have small, manageable tools to practice—like grounding or self-soothing techniques—to support your healing outside of therapy.
  • Over time, the focus shifts from surviving to rebuilding. You’ll strengthen your resilience, reconnect with your values, and feel more present and at peace in daily life.
 
Every step of therapy is paced to your comfort and readiness, offered through secure telehealth across Tennessee and Virginia.
