Trauma Therapy
We are proud to feature a counselor who is trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT)! Trauma Therapy aims to help individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences, whether they are children or adults.
​
According to the Administration for Children and Families, “Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) is an evidence-based treatment approach shown to help children, adolescents, and their parents (or other caregivers) overcome trauma-related difficulties, including child maltreatment.”

Different Techniques for TFCBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps individuals identify and challenge negative thoughts and beliefs related to the trauma.
This technique teaches coping mechanisms for managing anxiety, flashbacks, and nightmares.
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR uses eye movements or other bilateral stimulation while recalling and processing traumatic memories.
This technique aims to reduce the intensity of emotional distress associated with the trauma.
We help with grounding exercises: helping you feel present and safe in the moment. We also help with mindfulness motivation: cultivating awareness and acceptance of difficult emotions.
