Embody Therapy provides trauma-focused therapy for adults and teens located throughout Virginia through secure online HIPAA-compliant Telehealth sessions. I work with individuals navigating PTSD, complex trauma, sexual trauma, childhood or adulthood trauma, emotional overwhelm, dissociation, and the lasting effects of difficult or overwhelming experiences.

Trauma can impact how you feel in your body, your relationships, your sense of safety, and the ways you move through everyday life. Sometimes these experiences are easy to identify, while other times they may show up through patterns such as anxiety, shutdown, chronic stress, emotional reactivity, or difficulty feeling connected to yourself or others.

Trauma therapy offers space to begin understanding these patterns with greater clarity and compassion while working toward increased regulation, stability, and healing over time. Trauma therapy is one of several therapy services available through Embody Therapy. Depending on your needs and goals, therapy may incorporate approaches such as EMDR therapy as part of a broader trauma-focused treatment approach.
