Creating Meaningful Change

The Trauma Recovery Program (TRP) helps individuals manage the wide range of emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms that often follow trauma. This includes persistent anxiety, emotional dysregulation, intrusive memories, panic responses, sleep disruption, and overwhelming triggers. Many participants also struggle with physical tension, social withdrawal, loss of motivation or identity, or difficulty handling daily stressors.

Our goal is to help you understand your trauma, reduce symptom severity, and rebuild a lasting sense of safety and control.

TRP Includes: Group Therapy Psychology Groups Creative Expression Wellness Based Yoga Fitness Mindfulness Sessions Nutrition Education

Group Therapy

Participants take part in group sessions that build community, shared understanding, and emotional regulation skills.

Psychology Groups

Led by mental health professionals, these groups focus on understanding trauma responses, managing hyper vigilance and reactivity, building emotional regulation, and learning tools to navigate anxiety, depression, and daily challenges.

Creative Expression

Using art, music, writing, and other creative outlets, participants can process emotions, reduce internal pressure, and explore identity in a safe, nonverbal way.

Wellness Based Yoga

Participants learn self-regulation skills through guided breathing, mindful movement, stretching, yoga, and meditation. The emphasis is always on choice, safety, and reconnecting with the body at a comfortable pace.

Fitness

Movement plays a key role in trauma recovery. Fitness classes focus on gentle, safe, trauma-informed physical activity that improves mood, reduces stress, restores body confidence, and supports return to function or return to work.

Mindfulness

Dedicated mindfulness sessions help reduce overstimulation, ground the nervous system, and increase present-moment awareness.

Nutrition Education

Nutrition classes address how eating habits relate to trauma, sleep, focus, and overall health.

Understanding the patient's journey

Did you know?

How trauma can affect your window of tolerance

HYPERarousal

Hyperarousal is a high-energy state driven by fight-or-flight activation in the nervous system. It can show up as panic, rage, or anxiety, with racing thoughts, tension, and the body reacting as if it’s in danger.

Window of Tolerance

The Window of Tolerance is the optimal zone for processing emotions where a person feels calm but alert. Thinking is clear, responses are flexible, and the nervous system remains regulated.

HYPOarousal

Hypoarousal is a low-energy state where the nervous system shifts into freeze or shutdown. It often feels numb, foggy, and disconnected, with the body slowing everything down and leaning toward collapse or dissociation.
