Trauma & C-PTSD Therapy That Supports Your Healing

If flashbacks, overwhelm, or constant vigilance shape your daily life, you’re not alone. Our specialized trauma-trained therapists offer therapy for trauma and C-PTSD at a pace that feels right for you.

Our Trauma Therapy Approach

01

Does this sound like you?

  • Feeling constantly on edge or waiting for something bad to happen

  • Struggling with flashbacks, nightmares, or intrusive memories

  • Finding it hard to trust others or feel safe in relationships

  • Carrying shame, guilt, or self-blame that won’t go away

  • Feeling disconnected from yourself, your body, or those around you

If this feels familiar, trauma therapy can help you find relief and reclaim your life.

03

Our Approach to Trauma & C-PTSD Therapy

We’ll work together to:

  • Create safety and stability before processing difficult memories

  • Learn regulation tools for when emotions or triggers feel overwhelming

  • Reprocess trauma at your pace, using safe and effective methods like EMDR

  • Rebuild trust in yourself, your body, and your relationships

  • Explore how trauma has impacted self-esteem, identity, and connection

05

What to Expect

​In your first session we'll:

  1. Explore your story at a pace that feels safe for you

  2. Identify your goals and what healing would look like

  3. Build grounding tools and provide education so you feel supported inside and outside of sessions

02

Understanding Trauma & C-PTSD

Trauma isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s your nervous system’s natural response to overwhelming or unsafe experiences.

 

For some, repeated or long-term trauma can lead to C-PTSD, where symptoms feel constant and exhausting.

At Fika, we understand trauma as your body’s way of trying to protect you. Therapy helps shift from survival mode into a place where you can feel safe, connected, and present again.

04

Modalities We Use

EMDR, trauma-focused CBT, ACT, DBT skills, Polyvagal-informed therapy, mindfulness, expressive arts, breathwork, IFS and parts work (ego states).

 

Your therapist will let you know what they draw from.

06

Trauma doesn’t have to define your future.

With the right support, healing is possible.
