Healing Is Possible, Even When It Doesn't Feel That Way
Trauma changes the way we see ourselves, other people, and the world. Whether you experienced a single overwhelming event or years of chronic stress and adversity, the effects can show up in your body, your relationships, and your sense of safety long after the original experience has passed.
At Sol Shine Wellness Group, our therapists specialize in trauma-informed care for adults and teens. We use evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, trauma-focused CBT, and somatic awareness, to help you process what happened, reduce symptoms, and rebuild a life that feels like yours again.
Trauma Takes Many Forms
PTSD
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder following a single traumatic event, such as an accident, assault, natural disaster, or medical emergency, marked by flashbacks, hypervigilance, avoidance, and emotional numbing.
Complex Trauma (C-PTSD)
Trauma resulting from prolonged, repeated experiences, such as childhood abuse or neglect, domestic violence, or chronic emotional harm, that affects identity, relationships, and emotional regulation.
Childhood & Developmental Trauma
Early adverse experiences that shape attachment patterns, self-worth, and nervous system regulation, often showing up in adulthood as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or a persistent sense of not being enough.
Relational & Attachment Trauma
Wounds from early caregiving relationships, betrayal, emotional unavailability, or abandonment that affect how you connect with others and trust yourself.
Medical Trauma
Traumatic responses to serious illness, medical procedures, hospitalization, or a life-threatening diagnosis for the patient or for those who witnessed or cared for them.
Trauma Co-occurring with Eating Disorders or OCD
Trauma frequently underlies or interacts with eating disorders, OCD, and anxiety. Our integrated approach addresses both the trauma and the co-occurring condition simultaneously.
Trauma in Teens
Adolescents process trauma differently than adults. We offer developmentally sensitive trauma therapy for teens, with family involvement as appropriate.
Secondary & Vicarious Trauma
Trauma that develops through exposure to others' traumatic experiences, common among caregivers, healthcare workers, first responders, and those supporting a loved one through crisis.
EMDR Therapy
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is one of our core trauma treatment modalities — endorsed by the WHO and APA for PTSD and trauma. Learn how it works, what to expect, and who it helps.
Our Integrated Treatment Approach
Trauma treatment is not one-size-fits-all. Your therapist will work with you to determine the right combination of approaches based on your trauma history, symptoms, and goals — always at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
EMDR
Processes traumatic memories through bilateral stimulation, reducing their emotional charge without extensive verbal retelling.
Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT)
Addresses trauma-related thoughts, feelings, and behaviors through structured, evidence-based cognitive and behavioral techniques.
Somatic Awareness
Incorporates body-based awareness to help regulate the nervous system and release trauma held in physical sensation.
ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)
Builds psychological flexibility and values-based living, reducing the grip of trauma-related avoidance and shame.
IFS-Informed Work
Explores the internal parts of self shaped by trauma — including protective and exiled parts — with compassion and curiosity.
Stabilization & Resourcing
Grounding, containment, and resourcing skills that build the internal safety needed to engage in deeper trauma processing.
Insurance & Fees
We accept Anthem Blue Cross, United Healthcare, Optum, and Aetna. We also offer private pay and can provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Contact us to verify your specific benefits before your first session.
