EMDR & Trauma Therapy in Colleyville & McKinney, TX
Some experiences don't stay in the past. They show up as anxiety you can't explain, a body that's always on alert, relationships that feel hard, or a voice that says you're not enough. Trauma therapy helps your brain and body finally process what happened, so it stops running the show.
We offer EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and trauma-informed therapy in Colleyville and McKinney, and online anywhere in Texas and various other states depending on clinician.
You don’t need a diagnosis, or a “big T” trauma, to benefit from trauma therapy.
What We Help With:
-
Childhood trauma and attachment wounds
-
Complex trauma from long-term stress, neglect or unsafe relationships
-
A single overwhelming event, like an accident, assault or medical trauma
-
Birth trauma and pregnancy loss
-
Betrayal trauma after an affair
-
Anxiety, panic and perfectionism that trace back to earlier experiences
-
Religious trauma
-
Low self-worth and harsh self-criticism
How We Work:
Trauma-informed therapy means you set the pace. We won’t push you to share details before you’re ready, and you can always say “no”.
​
-
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) uses bilateral stimulation, like eye movements or tapping, to help your brain reprocess painful memories. It doesn’t require you to retell the story over and over.
-
Somatic and body-based therapy works with what your body holds, using sensorimotor psychotherapy and mindfulness. This approach recognizes that trauma and attachment injuries are physically encoded in the nervous system and muscle memory.
-
Internal Family Systems (IFS) helps you get curious about the different “parts” of you, like the inner critic or the part that shuts down, instead of fighting them.
​​
We blend these approaches with talk therapy and our foundation in attachment and relational therapy, always with your consent, to help you process and make sense of it all, expand your window of tolerance, and begin to truly heal from the inside out.​
