TRAUMA THERAPY

Seventy percent of adults in the U.S. have experienced some type of traumatic event at least once in their lives, according to the National Council for Behavioral Health. A traumatic even can be: childhood neglect/abuse, sexual assault, witnessing violence, severe car crashes, war/terrorism, cultural, intergenerational and historic trauma, and natural disasters (to name a few). They can be a single trauma (ie: being mugged), recurring (ie: repeated domestic violence) or multiple (several different types of traumas over the course of months or years). ​​

WORK WITH JAMIE TO RESOLVE YOUR PAST

Trauma symptoms show up differently for people, but here are common questions to ask yourself:

  • Are you burdened by past experiences that you cannot seem to let go of?

  • Does it ever feel like you're in danger or you cannot fully relax?

  • Are your current relationships suffering from past experiences?

  • Are you startled easily by loud noises?

  • Do you feel emotionally numb or distant?

  • Do you experience nightmares or flashbacks of the event(s)?

  • Are you avoiding certain places or situations due to past events?

  • Do you ever feel like you're in a dream-state or watching yourself outside your body?

If you answered 'yes' to any of the above you can benefit from therapy!

HOW THERAPY WITH JAMIE CAN HELP

I can help you get relief through trauma therapy - whether it happened last week or 20 years ago.
I can guide you through a process to alleviate your specific trauma symptoms using a powerful psychotherapy called EMDR. I also often use CBT to assist in challenging any negative cognitions or unhelpful patterns/habits in your life as a result of your traumas.
