Trauma Therapy
Does your body feel like it’s in danger, even when you’re in a perfectly safe situation?
✓ Are memories of painful events resurfacing, making it hard to move forward in life?
✓ Do certain triggers make you feel like you’re reliving moments of distress or fear?
✓ Is it difficult to feel safe or grounded, even when things seem calm around you?
Trauma can have a lasting impact, shaping how we see the world and ourselves. Whether from past abuse, accidents, or any significant emotional or physical event, trauma can affect every part of life. Trauma can often feel like an invisible weight, impacting how you react to everyday situations.
You don’t have to carry this burden alone.
Living with trauma can be exhausting and confusing. You might feel like you're stuck in a loop of emotional or physical responses that don't make sense in the present moment. But there is hope. Through the support of compassionate therapy, you can begin to understand and release the deep imprints of trauma that are still affecting you.
At Soul Centered Therapy, we work with a range of modalities that are tailored to your unique needs. Whether through Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Sandtray Therapy, or other trauma-focused approaches, we aim to address both the emotional and physical aspects of trauma, helping you create more safety and ease in your body and mind.
A deeper understanding of how trauma affects the body
Trauma doesn’t just live in the mind—it is stored in the body. Research from Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score and Stephen Porges’ Polyvagal Theory shows us that trauma can dysregulate the body’s nervous system, leaving us stuck in states of fight, flight, or freeze. This means that trauma can create an ongoing sense of unease, a feeling that something is wrong, even when the environment around us is calm and safe.
Our approach includes:
✓ A safe space where you can explore the body’s response to trauma and start to reconnect with the present moment.
✓ Therapy modalities designed to address both your emotional experiences and the physical sensations that result from trauma.
✓ Techniques to help regulate your nervous system, bringing balance and peace back to your body and mind.
We will work together to understand how your trauma has impacted your body’s responses and shift the way you experience the world. You’ll learn tools to help you feel more grounded, present, and in control, rather than triggered or stuck in survival mode.
Moving beyond the past
You might wonder if it’s really possible to move beyond your trauma. Can you truly break free from these patterns that have been affecting you for so long? It’s natural to feel skeptical, but with the right support and modalities, you can shift how you respond to past wounds and regain your sense of safety and peace in the present.
Through our range of approaches, including trauma-focused therapies, somatic techniques, and the use of non-ordinary states of consciousness, we help you rewire your nervous system and release the deep imprint of trauma. This work helps you reconnect with your body, mind, and sense of self, bringing a sense of freedom and ease that you might not have thought possible.
