Trauma Healing Intensives
Rewrite your story.
"Trauma is not the bad things that happened to you, but what happens inside you as a result of what happened to you."
Wondering if Trauma Healing Intensives are a good fit for you?
Everyone has experienced trauma in some way, shape or form in their lives. Some are little “t” traumas like an injury that’s not life-threatening, the loss of a friend, a stressful move, a job change, a layoff, working for a difficult boss, or having a challenging teacher. Whereas, some are big “T” traumas like sexual assault, abuse, neglect, divorce, infidelity, exposure to violence, discrimination, war, the pandemic, and natural disasters.
Trauma Healing Intensives utilize modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), to help your brain process the trauma you’ve experienced, so the memory of that trauma does not feel as intense anymore.
Our memories cannot be erased. Good or bad, our memories are all a part of our life story. Yet, we can target our painful and stuck memories, and process them in order to get rid of the disturbance and distress that is attached to specific memories.
Before a Trauma Healing Intensive you may find yourself easily triggered, caught in a cycle of using coping strategies that do not work, and holding negative beliefs about yourself.
How It Works
- I will do an intake assessment to see if you would be a good candidate for the Trauma Healing Intensive.
- We will spend some time exploring your history and family of origin, assessing your internal and external resources, building helpful skills, and preparing you to process any traumatic memories.
- You will get a customized experience throughout the Trauma Healing Intensive, and your personalized treatment plan will cater to your specific needs and goals.
