Do you feel haunted by your past?
Has a traumatic experience left you feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed? Maybe certain memories resurface unexpectedly, triggering intense emotions or physical reactions. Trauma can impact every aspect of your life—emotionally, mentally, and physically—often making it feel impossible to move forward. Healing from trauma doesn’t happen overnight, but with the right tools and Lotus Light Counseling, you can start to feel more grounded and safe in your body again.

Trauma can show up in a variety of ways, including:
- Flashbacks or nightmares that force you to relive the event
- Avoiding people, places, or situations that remind you of the trauma
- Constant feelings of fear, anxiety, or being on high alert
- Emotional numbness or feeling detached from yourself and others
- Difficulty trusting people or forming close relationships
- Physical symptoms like headaches, stomach issues, or tension in your body

Why Choose Lotus Light Counseling for Trauma-Focused Therapy?
At Lotus Light Counseling, we understand how trauma can deeply affect every part of your life—from your emotional well-being to your physical health. Whether your trauma stems from a single event or repeated experiences, we are here to help you process what happened and guide you toward healing. Here’s how our trauma therapy can support you:
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): EMDR is an evidence-based therapy designed to help you process traumatic memories in a way that reduces their emotional intensity. Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, you can work through the trauma without becoming overwhelmed, helping your brain and body heal from the inside out.
- Somatic Approaches: Trauma often gets “stuck” in the body, manifesting as physical tension, pain, or discomfort. Somatic therapy helps you reconnect with your body through grounding techniques and gentle movement, allowing you to release stored tension and feel more in control of your physical and emotional well-being.
- Trauma-Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Trauma-informed CBT helps you challenge and change unhelpful thought patterns that may have developed as a result of trauma. We work with you to create new, healthier ways of thinking and responding, empowering you to break free from the cycle of fear and anxiety.
- Grounding and Coping Skills: In therapy, you’ll learn effective grounding techniques and coping strategies to help you manage triggers, flashbacks, or overwhelming emotions in your day-to-day life. These tools are designed to keep you anchored in the present moment, helping you feel more secure and less reactive to reminders of the trauma.
