We treat trauma and PTSD using evidence-based approaches including EMDR-informed care and trauma-focused CBT. Des Moines-based and telehealth across Iowa. Same-week appointments available.
What It Is
Childhood abuse. A car accident. Years in a relationship that rewired how you respond to other people. A loss that the people around you moved on from faster than you could. Trauma is what happens when an experience exceeds the nervous system’s ability to process it normally. That can happen from a single event or from sustained exposure over time.
What people describe is a life that keeps pulling them back to something that already happened. The triggers, the hypervigilance, the avoidance, the emotional flatness, the sleep that will not come. That is what trauma treatment addresses.
WHAT WE OFFER
Evidence-Based Trauma Care
We use EMDR-informed approaches alongside trauma-focused CBT and somatic awareness techniques to provide structured, evidence-based trauma treatment.
Safe & Carefully Paced Therapy
The pace of treatment is determined collaboratively between you and your counselor, ensuring you are never rushed into difficult work before you are ready.
In-Person & Telehealth Options
Sessions are available both in our Waukee Des Moines office and through secure telehealth appointments for clients throughout Iowa.
