Starting Trauma therapy

What is trauma therapy?

Trauma therapy is a therapeutic approach that focuses on treating the psychological impact of traumatic events on individuals. Trauma therapy helps people process and heal from their trauma by guiding them through their trauma in a compassionate and supportive way, allowing clients to feel the full scope of what happened to them and eventually move on from the event(s). This process helps people who have experienced trauma find ways to feel safe in their lives.

How does trauma therapy work?

Trauma therapy will often require individuals to walk through their experiences in a controlled and compassionate setting (unless the client has a dissociative disorder) so that they can fully process the event, an activity that will allow them to move on from what happened and feel safe again. Thriveworks Franklin therapists will also help clients learn healthy coping mechanisms to deal with their symptoms outside of therapy.

Is trauma therapy conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks trauma counseling in Franklin, MA is conducted both in person and online through online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does trauma therapy last?

If an individual is working through a single event that occurred during adulthood, they may only need a few months of treatment. However, in instances of childhood trauma or repeated traumatic events, therapy may continue over the course of years. Trauma therapy usually ends when the client believes they have met their therapeutic goals, however long that takes to occur. Thriveworks therapists in Franklin, MA will continue to provide care for as long as necessary to help clients meet their therapeutic needs.

Online Therapy for Trauma at Thriveworks Franklin, MA—Therapists in Norfolk County

A traumatic event is something no one deserves to go through. It can stay with a person for months and years after, impacting their mental, emotional, and physical health. But these impacts are not permanent. As much as trauma can hurt, it does not control your life. You are not at fault for what happened to you, but you can control how you heal.

Thriveworks Franklin wants you to know that you are not alone, and together we can come out of this stronger than before. We don’t have to stop living or healing. Thriveworks Franklin offers online therapy and in-person therapy you can connect with a licensed, professional counselor in the format of your choosing.

If you would like to schedule an online therapy session or have questions about how online counseling for trauma therapy works, call Thriveworks Franklin at (617) 360-7210.

Healing from Trauma

Our counselors will meet you where you’re at. This means wherever you are coming from or whatever your goals are for your mental health, we will work with you to build the life you want to live. The decision to schedule a telehealth therapy appointment can be hard, and we acknowledge the incredible strength you have to even considering doing so. It is that strength that will help you heal from your trauma.

Trauma affects the brain by destroying healthy synapses and creating unhealthy ones. Synapses are the highways information travels down in your brain. The good news is your brain is incredibly flexible. Trauma molded it but therapy can mold it back to a healthy state. Thriveworks Franklin has years of training and experience in trauma counseling to help you overcome your past. Changing the session to a virtual, online therapy session will not change the effectiveness of the process.

The trauma that you endured is in no way your fault. No one deserves to go through a trauma or live with the symptoms after it. Your resilience, strength, and courage inspires us every day. You deserve to take the time to heal and create a safe, healthy future. Thriveworks Amherst will be with you every step of the way.

For the past year my mental, emotional and physical health has been restored. By God's providence, I connected with a psychiatric nurse practitioner at your agency. She skillfully assessed my situation and quickly prescribed much needed medication. I was at an all time low. Because of her expertise, compassion, and support, my life was renewed. So incredibly grateful to have my life back again.

It was very difficult getting my account up. I believe that happens because when we initially signed up i made the account but it’s under my spouse insurance. After fixing the problem my not his account reflects our current therapy sessions. We get emails and text but when we sign into the thrivework accounts we can’t see the billing cycle to pay or see out upcoming session. Neither one of our accounts display update and current account information. And we have called a few times to get it right and it’s not working . My therapist and agency is splendid
