As trauma therapists, safety is our top priority. Complex trauma often comes with painful and overwhelming emotions. Our goal is for our clients to be equipped with skills to manage difficult emotions in their everyday lives as well as during the challenging process of trauma therapy. Before we dive into any trauma work, we spend time making sure that our clients feel confident and secure in their ability to cope. While trauma therapy can be intense, it does not have to be miserable. In fact, we believe it is most effective and sustainable when clients are able to stay regulated and present in session. Our clinicians use their background in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) as well as each client’s individual interests, values and strengths to support the client in developing a solid foundation of coping skills. We offer our services in-person to clients in the St. Louis area and virtually anywhere in Missouri!
