Trauma is a deeply personal response to distressing experiences that overwhelm our ability to cope. Whether it stems from a single event or years of chronic stress, trauma can change how the brain and body process safety, trust, and connection. Many people experience lasting effects long after the event is over — intrusive memories, anxiety, nightmares, difficulty concentrating, or a sense of emotional numbness.

At Louisville Health & Healing, our trauma therapists specialize in helping you safely process and release what’s been held inside for too long. We treat both acute and complex trauma, including childhood abuse, neglect, loss, medical trauma, and experiences of violence or betrayal. Using evidence-based and integrative approaches such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), IFS (Internal Family Systems), and expressive therapies, we help clients restore balance, regulation, and meaning.

Common trauma symptoms we address include:

  • Flashbacks, nightmares, or intrusive thoughts

  • Emotional reactivity or detachment

  • Chronic anxiety or hypervigilance

  • Difficulty trusting or maintaining relationships

  • Physical symptoms like tension, insomnia, or fatigue

Healing from trauma isn’t about erasing the past — it’s about transforming how it lives within you. Our private-pay trauma therapy offers the confidentiality, pace, and depth needed to create lasting change. With compassionate guidance, you can reclaim your sense of safety, strength, and self.
