Trauma

Therapy

Regardless of the nature of the experiences that impact a person, we often carry the negative effects around with us whether we are aware of it or not.

Trauma resolution therapy supports healing by gently addressing the lingering emotional and physiological effects of past experiences that continue to shape daily life. Trauma is often associated with major events such as sexual assault, physical abuse, or surviving an attack or disaster. However, distressing experiences of any kind—such as growing up in a home with instability, experiencing bullying, navigating a difficult relationship, enduring a car accident, or feeling the deep impact of betrayal—can leave lasting imprints on the body and mind.

Because trauma is not defined by the event itself but by its impact, many people carry its effects—sometimes in ways they recognize and sometimes in ways that are less visible. It can show up as patterns of self-protection, difficulties in relationships, a sense of disconnection, or emotions that feel overwhelming or stuck. At Tend Therapy, we use trauma-responsive techniques designed to meet each person where they are, helping to safely release the weight of these experiences. Through this process, clients can move forward with greater ease, self-trust, and a renewed sense of wholeness.

Tend to your body mind.
Tend to your heart.
