PTSD and Trauma

Your world has been flipped upside down.

You tell yourself, “It wasn’t that bad,” or reason “Worse things have happened to other people.” All you want is for things to go back to the way they used to be. You want to feel grounded and calm in your life, and safe with others.

Yet the overwhelming anxiety and reactivity you experience feel so far away from being grounded and calm. You avoid over-stimulating situations, and you find yourself constantly exhausted. It sometimes feels like you are stuck in slow motion, watching the rest of the world fly by; other times, it feels like you can’t stop moving.

Disconnection becomes your way of life.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects every area of your life, disconnecting you from yourself, others, and the world. Most of the time you feel trapped inside your head, isolated, and alone; but when you try to explain it to others, they just don’t seem to understand.

It is possible to experience relief from PTSD.

Healing from trauma must include both your mind and your body to fully integrate your experience. We focus on processing your trauma in manageable and regulated ways.

We will find strategies to help you be present and engaged in life, decreasing the effects that PTSD now has. And we will work to repair your relationships, reconnecting you to the things that you love.
