Trauma Focused - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
Trauma Focused - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
Throughout our lives, we may experience trauma or distressing events that affect our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Individuals who have been exposed to abuse, neglect, or single-incident traumas (e.g. car accident, natural disaster, loss of a loved one) may begin to struggle interpersonally, have difficulty trusting others, safety concerns, issues with power and control, intimacy issues, poor self esteem, increased anxiety, or difficulty sleeping. Utilizing a trauma informed lens, treatment would assist you with providing a safe and supportive environment to identify the impact of the traumatic experience. With a strength based approach, treatment would build upon your resiliency to assist with decreasing avoidance of trauma reminders and improve day-to-day living.
