Working through trauma can be life-changing, and working with a trauma-informed therapy team can provide you with the support that you need to move forward in life. At Marianne Tomlinson Therapy, LLC in Batavia, IL, providing service in-person and online, we're here to help with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other trauma-related mental health issues.
Understanding Trauma
Trauma refers to experiences that make it difficult for a person to cope. Experiences that can cause trauma include abuse, accidents, violence, natural disasters, sudden loss, and more. Trauma is individual, and an event that is traumatic for one person may not be traumatic for another.
Trauma-Informed Therapy
Trauma-informed therapy is an approach to mental health treatment that acknowledges the many ways that trauma can affect an individual. Working with a trauma-informed therapist can create a safe, calm, respectful environment where you can fully explore and process issues that are keeping you from enjoying your happiest life.
Your First Appointment
During your first appointment, we'll ask that you fill out some paperwork to help us better understand your goals and current mental health. From there, you'll meet with your therapist for an intake appointment and your therapist will work with you to begin the process of understanding your story.
We understand that the fear of judgment or worries about reliving past trauma can make it difficult to open up. However, not every treatment method for trauma requires a client to retell past events. We're committed to creating a safe space where you can process and heal, and want you to be able to explore options such as EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy.
After your intake, we'll develop a comprehensive treatment plan to help you move forward. At each appointment, we'll revise your treatment plan as needed.
