Trauma Therapy
Traumas can be big "T" traumas such as a car accident, rape, molestation, child abuse or little "t" traumas are the product of a less than ideal upbringing which have a lasting psychological impact and can affect relationships and day to day functioning.
Much has been written about trauma and neglect and the damage they do to the developing brain. But little has been written or researched about the potential to heal these attachment wounds and address the damage sustained from neglect or poor parenting in early childhood. I work with Attachment Focused (EMDR) which helps to heal clients with relational trauma and attachment deficits.
Our connections with caregivers induce neural circuit firings that persist throughout our lives, shaping how we think, feel, remember, and behave. When we are lucky enough to have secure attachment experiences in which we feel seen, safe, soothed, and secure—the “four S’s of attachment” that serve as the foundation for a healthy mind—these relational experiences stimulate the neuronal activation and growth of the integrative fibers of the brain.
EMDR is a powerful tool for catalyzing integration in an individual across several domains, including memory, narrative, state, and vertical and bilateral integration. Sometimes talk therapy is not enough and often despite having insight into your problems you are still left with the same disturbing feelings and distressing symptoms.
I use the following modalities to treat trauma:
ATTACHMENT FOCUSED EMDR
SOMATIC THERAPIES (TRIM model)
