Trauma Therapy

What is Trauma Therapy?
Trauma Therapy at Holistic Psyche NYC is a specialized approach designed to help you heal from the deep wounds of past traumatic experiences. Trauma, whether from childhood or adulthood, can profoundly affect your mental and physical well-being, often leading to conditions like PTSD, C-PTSD, anxiety, and depression. My approach to trauma therapy integrates evidence-based techniques that address both the mind and body, creating a comprehensive path to recovery.
How Does Trauma Therapy Work?
Trauma Therapy at Holistic Psyche NYC is grounded in a combination of Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Art therapy and traditional talk therapy. Somatic Experiencing, developed by Peter Levine, focuses on gently guiding you through the process of releasing trauma stored in your body’s muscle memory. This method helps to regulate your nervous system and promotes healing on a deep, somatic level.
Internal Family Systems (IFS), developed by Richard Schwartz, allows us to explore and address the different parts of your psyche that may have been affected by trauma. By understanding and harmonizing these inner parts, we can resolve inner conflicts and create a more integrated sense of self. Together, these methods offer a powerful combination that helps you process and move beyond your trauma, leading to a more balanced and peaceful life.
