Frequently asked questions
No. You never need to share details before you feel safe, and sometimes you never need to share them at all. Trauma therapy works even when the story stays inside. Your comfort and pacing always come first.
Many people second-guess their experiences. If something still affects your emotions, relationships, or sense of safety, it’s valid, and worth support. You don’t need a specific event or diagnosis to benefit from trauma therapy.
Trauma treatment should not overwhelm or retraumatize you. We go slowly, build safety first, and use grounding strategies to ensure sessions feel manageable and stabilizing, never rushed or unsafe.
No. EMDR is one option, but we also use CBT, ACT, DBT skills, attachment-based therapy, somatic tools, and more. Your therapist will tailor treatment to your comfort level, needs, and goals.
