FAQs About Trauma Therapy in St. Petersburg, FL

  • Trauma therapy is designed to help you process unresolved experiences that are still affecting your daily life. Using approaches like EMDR and nervous system regulation, we target both the mind and body so you can release the past and find lasting relief.

  • No. Trauma therapy isn’t about re-experiencing painful memories. With EMDR and somatic techniques, you process memories in a safe and controlled way without being overwhelmed or retraumatized.

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a research-backed therapy proven to reduce the emotional intensity of painful memories. It helps your brain reprocess trauma so you can move forward without being triggered by the past.

  • Every client is different. Some women notice significant changes in just a few sessions, while others may need more time for deeper healing. I also offer Breakthrough/Immersive sessions if you’d like to experience progress more quickly.

  • Yes. Unresolved trauma often shows up as anxiety, depression, panic, or feeling “stuck.” By addressing the root of the problem, trauma therapy can help reduce these symptoms and restore balance.

  • An EMDR session begins with building coping tools and safety. Then, using bilateral stimulation (eye movements or tapping), we work through distressing memories at a pace you can handle. Many clients are surprised at how empowering the process feels.

  • All sessions are held virtually through a secure online platform, so you can access trauma therapy from anywhere in St. Petersburg or throughout Florida. Clients often find online therapy more convenient and just as effective as in-person sessions.
