Trauma & PTSD
Healing Through Past Wounds
At Mindful Transformations, we understand that trauma and PTSD can leave deep emotional and physical scars, affecting every aspect of your life. Trauma is not just an event from the past; it’s an experience that can continue to influence your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in the present. Our holistic approach to treating trauma and PTSD is designed to address the mind, body, and spirit, helping you to heal from within and reclaim your sense of peace and well-being.
Understanding Trauma and PTSD
Trauma can result from a single distressing event or from prolonged exposure to overwhelming stress. PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) is a condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. It is characterized by symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and hypervigilance. At Mindful Transformations, we recognize that each person’s experience with trauma is unique, and we tailor our therapeutic approach to meet your individual needs.
Holistic Therapy for Trauma and PTSD
Our holistic therapy for trauma and PTSD involves a combination of evidence-based practices and complementary therapies that promote healing on all levels—physical, emotional, and spiritual. We believe that true healing comes from addressing the whole person, not just the symptoms. Our approach includes:
​
-
Mindfulness and Meditation: Mindfulness practices help you stay grounded in the present moment, reducing the power of traumatic memories and increasing your ability to manage stress and anxiety. Meditation can also help you reconnect with your inner self and foster a sense of peace and stability.
-
Energy Healing: Trauma often disrupts the body’s natural energy flow, leading to feelings of imbalance and disconnection. Techniques like Reiki and other forms of energy healing can help restore balance, release stored tension, and promote overall well-being.
-
Somatic Therapy: Trauma is often stored in the body, manifesting as physical tension or pain. Somatic therapy focuses on releasing these physical manifestations of trauma, helping you to reconnect with your body and feel safe within it once again.
Healing From Your Past
Childhood trauma can have a profound impact on your development and can shape the way you perceive the world and interact with others. Whether it’s the result of abuse, neglect, or other adverse childhood experiences, unresolved childhood trauma can lead to long-lasting emotional and psychological challenges.
​
At Mindful Transformations, we specialize in helping clients heal from childhood trauma. Our therapists provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your past experiences and begin the process of healing. We use a variety of therapeutic techniques, including inner child work and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, to help you process and integrate these early experiences. By addressing the root causes of your trauma, we support you in breaking free from old patterns and creating a more fulfilling life.
EMDR Treatment
One of the most effective treatments for trauma and PTSD is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps individuals process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact. During an EMDR session, the therapist guides you through specific eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation while you recall the traumatic event. This process helps to rewire the brain, allowing you to integrate the traumatic memory in a way that no longer causes distress.
At Mindful Transformations, we incorporate EMDR into our holistic treatment plans for trauma and PTSD. By combining EMDR with other therapeutic modalities, such as mindfulness and energy healing, we create a comprehensive approach that addresses both the psychological and energetic aspects of trauma. This integrative approach helps you to heal more fully and move forward with greater resilience and empowerment.

Children and Adolescent Approach
Adult Approach
Family Approach
At Mindful Transformations, our approach to treating trauma in children and adolescents is centered around creating a safe and nurturing environment where young individuals can process their experiences in a way that feels comfortable and natural to them. We recognize that trauma in childhood can deeply impact development, leading to issues such as anxiety, depression, and behavioral challenges. Our therapists use a combination of play therapy, art therapy, and mindfulness techniques to help children express their emotions and work through their trauma. By incorporating holistic practices such as mindfulness and somatic therapies, we help young clients reconnect with their bodies, build resilience, and develop healthy coping mechanisms that will serve them throughout their lives.
For adults, our trauma treatment approach is both comprehensive and personalized, addressing the mind, body, and spirit. We understand that trauma can manifest in various ways, including flashbacks, emotional numbness, and difficulties in relationships. Our therapists work collaboratively with clients to uncover the root causes of their trauma and to develop a tailored treatment plan that promotes healing on all levels. This may include evidence-based therapies such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to reprocess traumatic memories, as well as holistic modalities like energy healing, mindfulness, and somatic therapies to restore balance and well-being. Our goal is to empower adults to reclaim their lives, build resilience, and move forward with confidence and peace.
When one family member experiences trauma, it often affects the entire family dynamic. Our approach to treating trauma within families involves creating a supportive space where each member can share their experiences and feelings in a compassionate and non-judgmental environment. We work with families to improve communication, rebuild trust, and develop strategies for supporting one another through the healing process. By incorporating family therapy, mindfulness practices, and boundary setting, we help families navigate the complex emotions that arise from trauma, fostering a sense of unity and resilience. Our holistic approach ensures that the entire family heals together, creating a stronger, more connected family unit.
