Addressing trauma and stress involves navigating a complex landscape of emotional and psychological challenges.

Every individual’s experience is unique. No two traumas are the same.

Emotional Response

People react to trauma in different ways. Some may experience intense fear and anxiety, while others might feel numb or disconnected.

We identify the triggers that cause distress with careful and skilled exploration.

"Using EMDR and Polyvagal therapy, I have progressed from having immobilizing anxiety all day, to only a bit of anxiety in the evenings. We are still working away but I have been able to resume work and enjoy getting out more. It is a process, it is work, but I have come to realize that I am worth it."
