Trauma isn’t always loud
Sometimes it’s the constant feeling of being on edge.
‍
A body that won’t relax.
‍
A sudden rush of fear or shutdown that doesn’t seem to match the moment.
‍
Trauma lives in the nervous system.
‍
When something overwhelming happens, your body shifts into survival mode. And sometimes, even long after the event has passed, your system stays there — scanning, bracing, preparing.
‍
That doesn’t mean you’re broken.
It means your body learned to protect you.
‍
At CARE Counseling, we help you gently move beyond survival and into steadiness.
‍
Using EMDR and evidence-based trauma therapy, we work at your pace to help your nervous system process what happened, reduce triggers, and restore a sense of safety and control.

Counseling at CARE completely changed how I see myself in all relationships and helped me accept and move past so many traumas that were making life in the present a challenge. I honestly don’t know where I would be today if I hadn’t taken the first step toward and put in the hard work in EMDR. Sonya is the best!
EMDR was the best thing that ever happened to me. I’m so lucky to have an amazing therapist to guide me through tough times. I was returning to school, getting back into sports and most importantly feel like myself. Without Sonya and EMDR I would not be living my best life as I am today."‍
Before I started seeing Sonya I was not myself. My grades were dropping, I was getting no sleep, and I couldn't do what I loved most. My fears and anxiety began to control my life. Once I started working with Sonya and doing EMDR I began to feel like myself again. With her strategies and help I began to feel better.
I hated one on one therapy and felt like nobody could understand what I was going through or help…then I tried EMDR and oh my goodness. These sessions were the best thing for me and completely changed my life. Please please try EMDR it is 100% worth it!‍
Sonya was awesome. I felt as though I really needed EMDR to help me navigate the trauma I was previously dealing with. Because of the therapy I received, I am able to think about my trauma analytically, and no longer get dragged into my memories emotionally.
After 10 sessions I am leaving feeling empowered and resilient. I have coping skills that I am able to share with others and they also fell in LOVE with them like I did. I felt respected, validated, and understood. My triggers...do not trigger me anymore. EMDR is HARD work but SO worth it! Do it for you.
When I first spoke with Sonya about EMDR therapy and explained my situation to her she had told me that she thought she could help my situation in a short amount of time. I had tried some traditional therapy for a month or so but didn't really find it helped me.‍
I have really enjoyed my sessions. Based on how I'm feeling, we have used both EMDR and talk therapy to best attack the issue. He is non-biased and I am so happy I found him.
EMDR has given me back my life! It is hard to explain but in just a few session I have already noticed a tremulous reduction in frequency and severity of anxiety. It was really starting to wreak havoc in my life, I am very grateful I found this place.‍
After many varieties of therapy, EMDR was suggested. Initially it was quite an adventure to rid myself of old habits and thoughts. I personally have had a complete transformation and am back to enjoying a life free of anxiety and panic disorder. Thanks sometimes feels very small for where I am at in life.‍
I had never really utilized mental health services successfully in my life prior to this, nor had I ever heard of EMDR. We were so successful in our sessions that I was barely able to believe the progress we were making, even as I was watching it happen. ‍
 I am in shock to see such a dramatic change in his anxiety in the last 2 weeks, but specifically in the last 24 hours.  He was able to go to bed last night without rechecking the locks or security system even once, which has not happened as long as I have known him! ‍
