Why Choose Trauma Therapy?
Trauma, including complex trauma, and acute stress disorder impacts our lives in many ways. These experiences can also lead to symptoms such as anxiety, depression, flashbacks, and nightmares. At Juniper Blu, we offer evidence-based therapies like EMDR, CBT, and more to help you heal and reclaim your life — along with these benefits.
Trauma therapy can help reduce a wide range of symptoms associated with trauma — including anxiety, depression, flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance. Through therapeutic modalities like Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), and somatic experiencing, you can learn healthy coping mechanisms to manage these symptoms and improve your overall well-being.
Our emotional responses affect us physiologically, and often without our knowledge of it. As such, while trauma can disrupt your ability to regulate your emotions, trauma therapy can help you develop healthy coping skills to manage difficult emotions such as anger, sadness, and fear. This can lead to greater emotional stability — and a better sense of control over your emotional responses.
One of the biggest concerns of those who suffer from trauma is the inability to control their reactions to triggers — and this can leave one feeling unsafe and out of control. At Juniper Blu, we can help you develop a sense of safety and control in your life through therapy. You’ll learn skills to manage triggers, develop a support system, and create a safe environment for yourself.
Relationships are often affected by our past experiences. And if you’re suffering from trauma, this can strain your relationships and make it difficult to trust others. Therapy can help you develop healthy communication skills and build stronger relationships with loved ones. You’ll also learn to set boundaries, express your needs effectively, and build trust with others.
Trauma causes stress and anxiety, and both of these can affect our physical health in negative ways. At Juniper Blu, our therapeutic guidance can help you manage stress levels, improve sleep quality, and develop healthy lifestyle habits. This can also lead to a stronger immune system and a reduced risk of chronic health conditions.
Our memories affect us much more than we realize and untreated trauma can lead to intrusive memories, flashbacks, and nightmares. Trauma therapy can help you process these memories in a safe and supportive environment with expert guidance. Through techniques like EMDR, you can learn to detach from the emotional charge of the memories and gain a sense of closure.
