What is your go-to approach for PTSD/trauma therapy?

My go-to approaches for helping people in therapy are acceptance and commitment therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, and polyvagal approaches. I prefer these three because, when used together, they seem to treat the effects of trauma effectively. Utilizing these approaches allows for more targeted and real-time assistance.

What tools do you teach in PTSD/trauma therapy?

I teach tools like emotional regulation, communication skills, boundary setting, and how to feel safe.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in PTSD/trauma therapy?

I see progress when there is a decrease in emotional reactivity surrounding the themes that brought the individual into therapy and movement toward their intended goal.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement PTSD/trauma therapy?

There are several podcasts, videos, and books that an individual can listen to or read in addition to practicing strategies that they have learned to supplement their time in therapy.

What should someone do to prepare for starting PTSD/trauma therapy?

It would be helpful for someone starting therapy for trauma-related issues to know that, even though it may seem scary to talk about, your emotional experiences are valid.

★★☆☆☆

Their billing is horrible. I signed a payment agreement and they did not honour it. They charged my card for way more than the agreed amount making my account go negative. Cancelled all my appointment and wont be using this service again.
