What Is Trauma-Informed Therapy?

Trauma Informed Therapy Can Be Such a Useful Tool In Self-Healing

This is because we all have trauma. A trauma informed therapy practice can help uncover the underlying stories that keep us stuck to help aid in radical self-transformation.

And we can undo that trauma to free ourselves into our story more powerfully. Being trauma informed doesn’t have to mean that each person needs to have experienced trauma in their lifetime. In fact, what being Trauma Informed has more to do with me than it does with you.

Being trauma informed is a way for me to say to you that I am focused on creating the safest environment possible for a person to do their healing in. Beyond the standard norms of what any therapist can provide, I value the subtle nuances that can show up in the therapeutic space. Sometimes these are tangible, physical things, like what’s on the walls. Other times, this shows up through the way that I respond to you. Through a commitment to mindfulness in my questions, my responses, and my cultural awareness, I am dedicated to doing everything I can to create safe space. Each of these elements are crucial in creating a therapeutic relationship where you get to feel held and supported in your most sensitive of healing moments.
