We have many therapists who are experienced in working with trauma and PTSD. Please take a look at our general statement here and our website: https://talkingworkscounseling.com/
There is a trauma to everyday life that we all experience and trauma from childhoods and even inherited trauma passed down through the generations. There are multiple approaches to trauma and our course will depend on the type of trauma you have experienced and what your needs are. I have 28 years working at a Veterans hospital setting and have expertise in working with psychological trauma.
We’ve all experienced distressing events in life that are traumatic in some way. Feeling stressed or upset during these times is a normal and appropriate response. However, if our response to a traumatic event lasts too long and impacts our functioning or quality of life, then treatment can be helpful.
I have committed my life to help women, especially black women and girls, although not excluding men and boys, get through and heal from their traumas. Including my own.
I help clients recognize that not only that they can play a role and serve a purpose for the helping and nurturing of others but that they can also enjoy their own joy, peace, happiness and fulfillment inspite of what things they have experienced or survived.
Trauma and PTSD can have a profound impact on every aspect of our lives, but please know that you are not alone in this journey. Together, we'll work to understand the effects of trauma on your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and develop coping strategies to help you manage symptoms and regain a sense of safety and control.
Being alive stimulates all kinds of traumas ranging from some more painful experiences that have become paralyzing and limiting, to common everyday traumas that stimulate discomfort and have lead us to retreat within some kind of defense, containing the trauma. Being alive means that we inevitably suffer and experience trauma in one way or another. We must learn to overcome our traumas in healthy ways. In our work together, I offer a safe, compassionate and supportive space where my patients can talk freely about all thoughts and feelings where we can then move towards healing our pain and hurtful, traumatic experiences and transform them into strength and resilience, moving towards a greater understanding of what role these traumas have played.
