What is trauma-sensitive treatment?


 

Connections Counseling: A Leading Center for Trauma Sensitive Treatment

We pride ourselves on being a comprehensive trauma sensitive wellness center and are specifically trained in the unique needs of those who have experienced emotional or physical trauma. Connections Counseling practitioners have extensive experience in working with PTSD and trauma and use evidenced-based treatments such as: EMDRSensorimotor Psychotherapy, and Somatic Trauma Work.  

We treat all types of trauma: 

  • physical abuse

  • sexual abuse

  • domestic violence

  • accidents

  • severe neglect

  • traumatic loss

  • experiencing or witnessing any type of violence

  • natural disasters

Being a trauma sensitive center means we recognize that trauma is often the root of the primary struggle, even when the presenting problem may be different. We also understand that most people seeking therapy have some kind of trauma history. Trauma is often at the core of many issues therefore, we respectfully ask about trauma as part of our intake and assessment process. Normal development is affected by trauma and we take this into account during our collaborative treatment planning with clients. Our wellness space is intentionally designed to ensure safety, comfort, and nurturing.  

We work with Medicaid, crime victim’s compensation, private insurance, and Jefferson County Social Services as some of our main payment providers.  

At Connections Counseling, you really can find the healing you are looking for.
