We create a confidential, non-judgmental space for you to process traumatic memories, manage associated distress (such as flashbacks or hypervigilance), and rebuild a sense of safety and empowerment.Beyond these core areas, our therapists also support individuals dealing with stress management, relationship issues, depression, grief, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions.
