Isolation and avoidance
Being startled easily or constantly scanning for danger
Excessive risk taking behaviors
Nightmares and flashbacks
Attempts to have total control and safety
Difficulty regulating emotions
Feeling like you’re reacting to your life instead of living it

Enjoy life the same way you used to
Feel like yourself again

Your Trauma Therapist in Phoenix, Arizona
Therapy doesn’t have to feel like “therapy”
Why would you come sit on a couch and tell a stranger the most awful thing that has ever happened to you? We will establish a baseline of trust and understanding first, so that when it is time to open that box, we both know exactly how to sort through it and not make an even bigger mess. Once you feel safe and ready, we can start to understand each part of you that is showing up.
We will help you understand what is happening in your mind and body, and give you the tools you need to be your own hero.
I trust you with your story and your emotions.
There is a way out, and it doesn’t have to involve painfully recounting every awful thing that has ever happened. We can use music, art, checking in with your body, whatever feels the most natural to you.
