Trauma Therapy
Trauma, whether stemming from a single traumatic event or prolonged exposure to distressing situations, can have long-lasting effects on an individual's emotional and psychological state. The brain changes its wiring and releases stress hormones, leaving a lasting impact on emotions and memory. The amygdala and hippocampus, key players in emotions and memory, are heavily involved in this process. To address the unique needs of those who have experienced trauma, we offer specialized therapies like EMDR and Brainspotting.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
EMDR is a well-established therapy for processing trauma. It helps individuals reprocess distressing memories through guided eye movements. EMDR is effective for addressing PTSD and trauma-related symptoms, providing practical tools for healing and regaining emotional control.
Brainspotting
Brainspotting is a gentle, effective therapy for deep-seated trauma. By locating "brainspots" related to trauma through focused eye positions, it releases emotional pain and symptoms. Brainspotting is particularly suitable for those who may find it challenging to express their trauma verbally or wish to explore the somatic experience of trauma.
