Trauma-focused therapy is a therapeutic approach focused on managing the effects of trauma. Traumatic events include experiencing and/or witnessing any form of abuse (physical, emotional, and sexual), accidents (with or without bodily harm), natural disasters, violent crimes (e.g. robbery incident), or death of a loved one. These traumas can lead to some serious psychological challenges.
Trauma-focused therapy helps with the psychological effects of traumatic events in various ways. For example, the psychological effects of trauma can be salient or profound with symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, problems with relationships and intimacy, poor work/ school performance, self-harm behaviours and low self-esteem.
Our therapy approach is evidence-based and focused on helping you integrate the traumatic experience into your life and not subtract it. It helps you live above what you experienced. Beneficiaries include children, adolescents, and adults.
Our major approaches are Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), exposure therapy, and EMDR.
