Trauma Therapy in Denver
Are you ready for your past to not impact your present anymore?
Do painful memories that pop up that you wish wouldn’t?
Do you keep having the same conflict come up within yourself and your important relationships?
Your past doesn’t have to impact your present anymore.
When you hear the word “trauma" you may think of a specific event, memory, or relational wound. You may think of past abuse, childhood trauma, or neglect. The truth is that we all have experienced some trauma in our lives - it can be from a one-time event or years and years of small events that have caused us to feel disjointed from ourselves. Unresolved traumas often carry over into our current life, causing us to feel distracted, hyperaroused, and fragmented. These wounds may cause you to feel disconnected from others and yourself, even though your biggest desire is to experience true belonging and healing.
You may be outside of the traumatic experience(s) now but still wonder why it is so hard to be vulnerable, experience intimacy, and genuine connection with others and yourself. You feel insecure, anxious, and confused at why past events continue to dictate your life today.

Trauma Therapy Process
Experience lasting and profound healing through trauma therapy. Through our work together, you will:
Gain insight on how your past impacts your present by looking closely at consistent patterns and cycles in your life.
Process through unresolved trauma and wounds from a holistic perspective that takes into account your mind, body, and emotions in order to cultivate positive coping strategies and a sense of inner safety.
Experience freedom to be your most full, healed self and integrate new patterns of communicating and engaging in your life.
When working through trauma, an important foundation to begin with is building a congruent and genuine relationship with yourself. Together we will explore past woundings and traumas that may impact how you show up in your life today. We’ll look at common cycles in your relationship with parents, partners, friends and others. You will learn how to belong within yourself so that you can be your most aligned and confident self with others and ultimately feel free to choose different ways of being in this world rather than operating out of your past traumas.
