Licensed therapy for Trauma and PTSD now available in-person for adults in San Francisco and online for California based individuals.
Life after Trauma can Feel Overwhelming
Traumatic experiences fundamentally disrupt a person’s sense of well-being. Trauma can leave a person with depression, anxiety, dissociative episodes, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. You may be unable to stop your mind from replaying painful memories associated with the trauma, impairing your work, intimate relationships, social life, even your sleep. You may find that you struggle to trust others or even yourself in certain situations.
Whether you’ve endured a complex series of sustained incidents or a singular event, trauma therapy can provide a safe, personalized space to begin rebuilding your life one step at a time.

How Can a Trauma Therapist Help?
Enrolling in trauma therapy can be a profound step towards comprehensive unburdening and healing.
Advancements in psychiatric research and shifting cultural perspectives over the past century have opened the doors to progressively more effective treatment modalities for individuals impacted by trauma. Indeed, even the past decade has seen profound shifts in how we understand individual and collective trauma, as well as recovery.
