Trauma Therapy in Oregon

Trauma can affect how you feel in your body, how you see yourself, and how safe the world feels around you. I provide trauma therapy in Oregon through online telehealth, with a focus on recent and single-incident trauma with EMDR therapy.

What Is Trauma?

Trauma occurs when an experience overwhelms the nervous system’s ability to cope. This can happen after events such as accidents, medical procedures, assaults, sudden losses, or other distressing incidents. Even when the event is “over,” the body and brain may continue to respond as if danger is still present.

Trauma symptoms may include:

  • intrusive memories or flashbacks

  • heightened anxiety or hypervigilance

  • emotional numbness or shutdown

  • panic responses

  • difficulty sleeping or relaxing

  • negative beliefs about yourself or the world

EMDR Therapy for Trauma

I primarily provide trauma therapy using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). EMDR is an evidence-based approach that helps the brain process and integrate traumatic memories so they no longer carry the same emotional charge.

My work focuses especially on:

  • recent trauma

  • single-incident trauma

  • distressing experiences that feel “stuck” or unresolved

One benefit to EMDR therapy is that it does not require detailed retelling of traumatic events. Read more about EMDR therapy here.

I offer EMDR trauma therapy to adults across Oregon, based out of Portland, via secure telehealth. If you are seeking trauma therapy in Oregon, feel free to schedule a 15-minute consultation.
