Individual and Couple Trauma Therapy in North Carolina
Life was not fair, something horrible happened. All you want is to feel normal again. You just want to be genuinely happy, like everyone around you. You just want to have “that” relationship again.
Instead, you:
Feel broken, damaged, and beyond repair
Feel stuck in survival mode, waiting for the next bad thing, and cannot find time to take a breath
Have difficulty engaging in healthy, productive conversations with your partner
These things are so very common and make sense. You are not alone, and you do not have to go through it alone.
You have come to the right place
Trauma, even childhood trauma, can impact your ability to move around and interact in the world in the way you would like. Trauma can have a significant impact on your most important relationships. I have a unique understanding of this and would love to help you on your healing journey.
Hi, I’m Stacy. I understand trauma and believe in your ability to heal.
Couples Therapy Services
Trauma and Couples Therapy
If you or your partner have ever been through something traumatic, it can have significant impacts on the relationship. Couples therapy can help heal PTSD symptoms.
Types of concerns I most commonly work with
Communication problems, decreased intimacy, emotional distance, feeling like you are just roommates, overall connection, reconnecting after trauma (even if it was childhood trauma)
Assessment
I use a three session assessment and an online questionnaire to help identify all the underlying problems and struggles so that we know exactly what to target. Think of this as the testing to know what the problems are.
Learning
After we finish assessment and planning, we will begin the process of identifying and changing patterns, learning needed tools to increase connection, and using skills learned outside of the session to continue positive change
Reconnect
Start to reconnect with your partner in ways that you may have never thought possible. Continuing the work learned in therapy.
Individual Therapy Services
Trauma Recovery Therapy
Before starting therapy, most people who have been through trauma feel stuck or broken. You may notice anxiety, depression, or feel on edge and super aware of everything around you.
Types of Trauma I Specialize With
Complex trauma (such as domestic violence, childhood assault), sexual assault in and out of intimate relationships, and childhood trauma among others.
Understanding
First, I will help you understand your symptoms and explore your family history from an attachment perspective in order to help you understand why you are responding to things the way you do.
Skills Development
We will identify any skills needed to help you recover when you may get activated so that you feel more in control
Recovery
We will use EMDR and other methods to help you recover and move forward from those events that have made you feel stuck
