TrAUMA

---

  Our therapeutic approaches for trauma are designed to help individuals process and heal from distressing or life-threatening experiences that have overwhelmed their ability to cope. These therapies aim to reduce symptoms such as flashbacks, anxiety, emotional numbness, and hyper-vigilance, which are common in trauma-related conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Evidence-based approaches include eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), which uses guided eye movements to process traumatic memories. Effective trauma treatment often includes approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS), which helps individuals explore and heal wounded inner parts, as well as somatic therapies that focus on the physical sensations of trauma stored in the body. Mindfulness-based approaches are also widely used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce emotional reactivity. Therapy often emphasizes  trust-building, and empowerment, enabling individuals to regain control and restore a sense of well-being, a sense of safety, connection, and self-regulation. 

Therapy for trauma at Peaceful Mind Psychology often includes LENS neurofeedback, a gentle, non-invasive technique that supports the brain in reorganizing and self-healing. Together, these approaches aim to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, dissociation, and hyper-arousal, while helping individuals regain a sense of control and inner balance.
