What Is a Trauma Specialist?
A trauma specialist is a mental health professional with advanced training in treating trauma-related conditions. Our specialists use evidence-based therapies specifically designed to help you process traumatic memories, reduce symptoms of PTSD, and restore your sense of safety and well-being.
Unlike general therapy, trauma-focused treatment targets the specific ways trauma affects your brain and nervous system. Our specialists are trained in multiple approaches including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-focused CBT, and other proven methods that help you heal without having to relive your trauma in detail.
