Area of specialization

Trauma & PTSD

Trauma can affect safety, memory, emotion, relationships, sleep, concentration, and the nervous system long after an event has ended.

01

Safety, stabilization, pacing, and informed choice come first.

02

Treatment may include trauma-focused approaches such as EMDR when clinically appropriate.

03

The goal is to reduce the degree to which the past controls present-day choices, relationships, and emotional responses.

Specialization is not a substitute for assessment.

These pages describe common concerns and treatment considerations. Individual recommendations require a clinical evaluation that considers symptoms, history, goals, strengths, risks, and circumstances.
