Trauma Therapy in Fairfax, VA

Trauma therapy may be an option when past experiences continue to affect your emotions, relationships, or daily life.

You May Be Exploring Trauma Therapy Because

You may be exploring trauma therapy because past experiences still feel difficult to carry, certain situations or memories feel activating, or you feel guarded, numb, disconnected or on edge.

You may want to understand your patterns, or you may be unsure whether EMDR, CBT or another approach is right. You do not need to know the approach before reaching out. You can process trauma at a pace that feels comfortable.

Experiences Trauma May Be Connected To

  • Childhood experiences
  • Abuse or neglect
  • Medical experiences
  • Relationship trauma
  • Racial trauma
  • Loss or grief
  • Sudden or overwhelming life events
  • Chronic stress or emotional harm

Signs Trauma May Still Be Present

  • Anxiety or feeling constantly on alert
  • Flashbacks or intrusive memories
  • Emotional overwhelm
  • Numbness or shutdown
  • Headaches, fatigue or stress in the body
  • Difficulty trusting others
  • Shame or self-blame
  • Coping patterns that are hard to break
