Trauma Therapy FAQs
What can I expect in a Trauma Therapy session?
You can expect a trauma- trained clinician to first assess how trauma is impacting your life. Your therapist will provide education on PTSD and help you identify the primary sources of your trauma. From there an individualized plan is created and shared with you on the best pathway for treatment.
What if I feel like I’ve already dealt with my trauma?
If you are still dealing with symptoms, then maybe trauma has not been healed at the root. It is normal to go through phases of healing our traumas. At times we may be free of symptoms, but recurring triggers are a sign that more intensive healing is needed. We are here to help you assess next steps.
What type of treatments do you use?
Our primary tool for healing trauma is EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. EMDR has many facets and tools that make it adaptable to your specific needs and sources of trauma.
Additionally, our clinicians are trained in a variety of other trauma-informed tools to meet you right where you are.
Do you offer EMDR Intensives?
Yes. Intensives are customized to meet your unique needs and goals and they can be consecutive full or half days based on your needs & goals.

Rachel's tender-loving kindness and gentleness paved the way.
“Thank God for Rachel! She taught me how trauma is processed and stored throughout the body, and why my mind thinks and reacts the way it does after decades of heartache from sexual abuse. This knowledge, coupled with her amazing EMDR therapy, set me free from “survivor mode” and put me on a new path to wholeness and healing! ”
