Our therapists approach trauma from empirically validated approaches that incorporate the whole person. They are trained in trauma-specific treatments and will participate in ongoing training and consultation. The RTC also seeks to provide trainings for the community and other helping professionals in order to increase education about the impact of trauma as well as effective treatment.
In individual therapy, the client and therapist work together to find solutions, support, and help. A therapist is a skilled professional trained to work with individuals who want to overcome issues interfering with their happiness, work, relationships, and other essential areas in life. Likewise, individual therapy aims to provide the individual with insights to make changes to thoughts, feelings, or behaviors that are causing them distress.
By focusing on the individual, therapists may help individuals recover from addiction and begin to lead a happy life once again.

EMDR is an approach that helps clients to identify how current symptoms are linked to both negative beliefs about themselves and unresolved stressful events.
EMDR activates both hemispheres of the brain using sets of eye movements, taps, or sounds. Attention is given to the stressful event, belief about self, emotion, and body sensation related to the event. Clients are asked to notice changes in images, emotions, body sensations and/or beliefs about the event.

EMDR can help to reduce the emotional charge associated with painful events. EMDR also seeks to strengthen positive, more adaptive, beliefs about self. More information about EMDR can be found at emdria.org.
