How we help
We start at your pace; you do not need to share every detail at the first visit. Trauma-focused therapies, such as cognitive processing therapy, prolonged exposure or EMDR, are core treatments, and we help connect you to trained therapists. Medication can reduce anxiety, depression and sleep disturbance, and some medications specifically target trauma-related nightmares.
