Trauma-informed therapy is the key to understanding experiences, without becoming flooded, overwhelmed, or re-traumatized when addressing painful events and relationships. As trauma-informed therapists, safety is a top priority. We believe our clients need a felt sense of physical and emotional safety in the therapy process before healing can occur. All pain is valid and purposeful and therefore, it needs to be both validated and understood. Addressing trauma frees us to create or re-establish a healthy connection to ourselves, our loved ones, & the world.

Giving up on a goal because of a setback is like slashing your other three tires because you have a flat; I live by this quote because it is so simplistic yet speaks volumes.
