If you're struggling with difficult emotions, anxiety, or troubling memories from past trauma, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy can offer powerful paths to healing and reclaiming your life. These evidence-based therapies are specifically designed to support you in safely confronting and overcoming the lingering impact of childhood trauma.

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) helps you identify and gently challenge unhelpful beliefs about yourself, others, and the world that often develop after experiencing trauma. By working through these thoughts, you'll begin to reshape your perspective, freeing yourself from feelings of guilt, shame, self-blame, or powerlessness. You’ll discover healthier ways to interpret past events, which can significantly reduce feelings of anxiety, sadness, and isolation.

Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy guides you in gradually facing traumatic memories, feelings, or situations you've avoided, helping you regain control over your emotional responses. Through safe, structured exposure, you'll experience reduced anxiety, lower stress, and lessened sensitivity to triggers, restoring your confidence and sense of safety.

Without treatment, unresolved childhood trauma can manifest in persistent anxiety, difficulty forming healthy relationships, self-sabotaging behaviors, emotional numbness, depression, chronic stress, or reliance on negative coping strategies. CPT and PE therapies directly address these patterns, helping you develop healthier coping skills, improve self-compassion, and foster meaningful connections in your life.

Together, these therapies provide clarity, emotional relief, and new perspectives. You'll be empowered with practical skills for coping, improved emotional regulation, and stronger relationships. By engaging in this process, you can free yourself from the lasting burden of past trauma and move forward into a healthier, more hopeful future.
