Tend to the parts of you that survived.
Trauma Therapy at Fireheart Counseling
Trauma has a way of changing us.
Sometimes it strips us bare, leaving us feeling alone & disconnected. Other times, it hardens us, leaving us feeling fierce, guarded & simmering beneath the surface. Survival can make us sharp and teach us that vulnerability and softness is unsafe.
The anger, numbness, dissociation; the people-pleasing, hypervigilance and avoidance - these are ways your body has kept you safe. But living in survival mode is exhausting and unsustainable. Its impacts can leave us isolated; always on the outside looking in. Its impacts can leave us stuck in the past and fearful of moving forward.
At Fireheart Counseling, we honor the parts of you that survived and teach you how to honor them too.
Healing does not require you to extinguish your fire. Healing asks you to learn how to tend to it differently.
Therapy can help you reconnect with yourself and with others; teaching you how to soften the armor when it no longer serves you. You can heal without abandoning the parts of you that fought so hard to survive and you don’t have to do it alone.
