Our therapists have advanced training in specialized trauma psychotherapies, including EMDR, mindfulness, and somatic approaches. These modalities all rely on tracking internal bodily sensations, because research shows that unresolved trauma is held in the body and in the nervous system. When we work with clients, through trauma therapy, we seek to truly know each person as an individual and to tailor treatments accordingly in an environment that prioritizes safety and collaboration.
Feeling stuck?
Trauma therapy can help.
Center Psychology Group is a New York therapy practice with clinicians specializing in treating trauma.
Trauma is when the body reacts to the present with a painful response rooted in past experiences. For example, dealing with pregnancy or loss. Whether you survived a trauma event recently or feel trapped by one from long ago, our clinicians’ combination of empathic warmth and evidence-based approaches will help you gain relief.
We Can Help You Get to Where You Want to Go.
The Potential is in You, Always.
After our therapists establish a rapport with our clients – this relationship is the foundation of all therapeutic work – we collaborate at their pace to process and integrate past traumas. Our work can help ease painful psychological symptoms that hold you back from the growth you seek. Reclaim your life from the past.
