What is your go-to approach for PTSD/trauma therapy?

My approach is to develop a safe and comfortable therapeutic relationship. I prefer to recognize and validate the clients' experience.

What tools do you teach in PTSD/trauma therapy?

I do a PTSD screening and teach clients symptom management strategies, how to work toward empowerment and safety, and psychoeducation on trauma responses.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in PTSD/trauma therapy?

I see progress when the client is able to manage symptoms and understand the origin of the trauma responses.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement PTSD/trauma therapy?

I encourage self-care/physical activity if possible, as well as establishing a safe space.

What should someone do to prepare for starting PTSD/trauma therapy?

First and foremost, a client should be ready to establish a safe therapeutic relationship in order to develop trust.

Vivian provides a welcoming conversational space for exchange. She is able to listen with genuine care and when the time is right give feedback that is both empathetic and constructive. If I have to share a problem with her that might be difficult to share with even a close friend, I feel she is able to help coach me along with a patient reassurance that my thoughts and feelings will be considered without judgment. There may not always be a direct or immediate answer to what I’m working through but she is able to encourage healthy thought-habits and emotional strategies which help me to progress. I really appreciate her respectful frame of mind and down-to-earth personality, they make talking with her worthwhile.
