How Trauma Therapy Works

One of the most effective ways to heal from trauma is through talk therapy. In your first session, your therapist will ask you a number of questions to understand what you’ve experienced, how it’s affecting you, and what you need from your treatment. From there, your therapist will develop a treatment plan customized to your specific needs. Each session will be confidential, just between you and your therapist, so you can discuss each concern and work towards a safer, more peaceful future.
