Approaches to Trauma Therapy

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing trauma. Our clinicians are trained in a variety of specialized trauma therapies to best support your unique needs. Below are some of the evidence-based modalities we offer:

1. Brainspotting
Brainspotting helps uncover and heal unresolved trauma that may be contributing to anxiety, depression, or other emotional challenges. This approach taps into the connection between the brain and body, allowing access to deeper, subconscious areas where trauma is stored. By bypassing overthinking, brainspotting helps both the mind and body process and release distressing experiences.

2. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR reduces distress from traumatic memories by guiding clients through specific eye movements, tapping, or sounds while processing past experiences. This approach helps rewire the brain’s response to trauma, promoting emotional relief.

3. ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy)
ART combines rapid eye movement with guided imagery to reprocess and resolve traumatic memories. Clients are led to replace distressing images with more positive ones, reducing emotional pain and shifting how past experiences are stored in the brain.

4. Trauma-Informed Yoga
This practice offers a safe and supportive space to reconnect with the body, regulate emotions, and build resilience. Through breathwork, movement, and mindfulness, trauma-informed yoga promotes healing by enhancing body awareness, strengthening coping skills, and restoring a sense of control.
