PTSD & Trauma Treatment

Trauma is an emotional response to a deeply distressing event that overwhelms our ability to cope. While trauma is a normal response to abnormal circumstances, when symptoms persist and interfere with daily life, it may develop into Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This condition affects how we think, feel, and relate to others, often manifesting through flashbacks, nightmares, hypervigilance, and emotional numbness.

At Eden Vale, we understand that trauma isn't just in the mind—it lives in the body. Our comprehensive trauma treatment program addresses both the psychological and physiological aspects of trauma, using cutting-edge therapies in an environment designed for safety and healing.

Whether you're dealing with a single traumatic event, complex developmental trauma, or the cumulative effects of prolonged stress, our specialized team provides the compassionate, expert care needed to process trauma and reclaim your life.

Our specialized program addresses all forms of trauma, including: • Single-incident trauma from accidents, assaults, natural disasters, or sudden loss • Complex trauma resulting from prolonged exposure to abuse, neglect, or violence • Developmental trauma from childhood adversity and attachment disruption • Medical trauma from serious illness, invasive procedures, or near-death experiences • Combat and military trauma including moral injury and survivor's guilt • Intergenerational trauma passed through family systems • Vicarious trauma experienced by healthcare workers, first responders, and caregivers Each type of trauma requires a tailored approach. Our comprehensive assessment identifies the specific nature of your trauma and guides the development of your personalized treatment plan.

Our treatment follows the gold-standard three-phase model for trauma recovery: Phase 1: Safety and Stabilization Before processing trauma, we ensure you have the internal resources to tolerate difficult emotions. This phase focuses on building coping skills, establishing safety, and developing a trusting therapeutic relationship. You'll learn grounding techniques, emotional regulation strategies, and ways to manage triggers. Phase 2: Trauma Processing When you're ready, we begin the careful work of processing traumatic memories. Using EMDR, somatic experiencing, and other evidence-based approaches, we help you integrate these experiences without becoming overwhelmed. This is done at your pace, with your consent and control paramount. Phase 3: Integration and Reconnection The final phase focuses on reconnecting with life, relationships, and purpose. You'll develop a new narrative about your experiences, rebuild trust in yourself and others, and create a vision for your post-trauma life. Many clients discover that healing from trauma opens doors to growth they never imagined.
