Trauma‑Informed Approach

Trauma-informed psychotherapy is a compassionate, client-centered approach that recognizes the deep and lasting impact of trauma on a person's mind, body, and relationships. Grounded in principles of safety, trust, choice, collaboration, and empowerment, this framework guides both the therapeutic relationship and the methods used in treatment.

In an integrative therapeutic style, trauma-informed care draws from a range of evidence-based modalities-such as psychodynamic therapy, cognitive approaches, somatic awareness, and mindfulness-based practices-to meet each client's unique needs and preferences. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, therapy is attuned to how trauma may shape patterns of thinking, emotion, behavior, and connection.

This approach creates a safe, respectful space for healing, where clients are seen not through the lens of what's "wrong" with them, but with curiosity about what has happened to them-and how they have survived.
