Trauma & PTSD

Traumatic experiences can have a lasting impact on how children, teens, and families view themselves, others, and the world around them. Symptoms of trauma may include anxiety, irritability, emotional numbness, nightmares, difficulty trusting others, behavioral changes, trouble concentrating, avoidance, or feeling constantly “on edge.” I primarily utilize Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), alongside other evidence-based approaches, to help clients process difficult experiences, reduce trauma-related symptoms, and rebuild a sense of safety and confidence. My approach is always individualized, integrating interventions that best fit each client’s developmental needs, personality, strengths, and goals while creating a supportive and compassionate environment for healing.
