What Is Trauma Therapy? Understanding PTSD and Trauma-Informed Approaches

Trauma & PTSD Therapy is a specialized therapeutic process designed to help individuals heal from overwhelming, painful life experiences. This includes trauma therapy for adults dealing with events such as abuse, neglect, accidents, or ongoing stress.

Using trauma-informed therapy principles, we ensure your healing journey is supportive, respectful, and adapted to your needs. Techniques may include:

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
Somatic Experiencing

Our approach to therapy for trauma focuses on helping you feel safe, seen, and empowered to process the past without reliving it.

What Happens During Trauma & PTSD Therapy?

Trauma and PTSD therapy doesn't erase the memory — it helps your brain recognize that the danger is over. It allows the memory to feel less overwhelming and less intrusive, so you can move forward.

Most trauma-informed therapy focuses on:

  • Processing traumatic experiences in a structured, safe environment

  • Reducing emotional and physical reactions like panic, anxiety, or dissociation

  • Building tools to manage triggers and emotional spikes

  • Restoring a sense of safety, control, and connection in your daily life

Whether you're exploring therapy for the first time or returning after trying other methods, this approach is designed to support you as a whole person — not just treat symptoms.

Do You Find Yourself Reliving Painful Memories?

Living with trauma and PTSD can feel like an endless loop of distressing memories that surface unexpectedly, disrupting your daily routine. These intrusive thoughts can make it challenging to focus on work, maintain relationships, and even find joy in the activities you once loved.

What Makes Our Trauma Therapy Approach Different?

Many of our clients have tried other types of therapy — like CBT, EMDR, or cognitive processing therapy — and found some initial relief. But over time, they often notice that certain symptoms remain unaddressed. These might include:

  • Emotional shutdown or numbness
  • Difficulty trusting others
  • Subtle triggers that cause anxiety, even when the initial trauma seems "resolved"

At Mind Recovery Therapy, we stay with you for the full healing journey — even the parts that other therapies may overlook. We make sure even the smallest symptoms get the attention they need.

Our therapists work with you not just to reduce symptoms, but to connect the dots between your trauma and the patterns or reactions that emerge later. We also provide ongoing care, so if a new symptom or trigger shows up months after treatment, you’re not left alone to navigate it.

This approach helps clients feel supported, grounded, and empowered — not just during sessions, but in everyday life.
