How we help with Trauma

Trauma in later life—whether from past experiences or recent events—can leave deep emotional scars that affect daily functioning, relationships, and overall well-being. Our trauma therapy for seniors is designed to provide a safe, compassionate space where painful memories can be processed without judgment. Using evidence-based approaches like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), somatic therapy, and cognitive behavioral techniques, we help older adults gently work through traumatic experiences while rebuilding a sense of safety and control. Many seniors carry unresolved trauma from military service, childhood adversity, or significant losses, which may resurface with aging. Our therapists are trained to recognize these unique challenges and tailor treatment to the individual’s emotional and physical needs. We focus on reducing symptoms like flashbacks, hypervigilance, and emotional numbness while fostering resilience and post-traumatic growth.
