Our Integrated Approach to Trauma Healing

Our work is guided by the Six Pillars of Transformation, which support your journey to healing by providing personal meaning and helping you reconnect with your core values. In Redding, we seek to help you cultivate resilience and long-term recovery.

1. Contacting the Present Moment (Be Here Now): Trauma often keeps us anchored to the past or fearful of the future. In Redding, CA, we help you stay grounded and focused on the present.
2. Defusion (Watch Your Thinking): Trauma can bring overwhelming thought patterns. Through ACT, you’ll learn to observe these thoughts with distance, allowing space between trauma responses and your true self.
3. Acceptance (Open Up): We guide you in embracing all emotions, creating a safe environment to process difficult feelings.
4. Self-as-Context (Balancing Self-Identity): Trauma can blur self-identity. We support you in connecting with a stable sense of self that endures beyond traumatic memories.
5. Values (Know What Matters): Rediscovering your values is central to building a fulfilling life in Redding. We help you identify these values to guide your choices and decisions.
6. Committed Action (Do What It Takes): Recovery is a journey that requires aligned action. We support you in making choices that promote healing and purpose.

Understanding Trauma and Our Path to Healing

Trauma is a response to an overwhelming threat, triggering survival mechanisms. In Redding, unresolved trauma can keep the body in a heightened state, leading to feelings of hypervigilance or vulnerability. Our approach addresses these impacts with therapies that go beyond talk. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy gently works with the body’s trauma responses, while EMDR reprocesses traumatic memories. Internal Family Systems (IFS) offers a compassionate way to understand inner experiences. Together with ACT’s Six Pillars, these approaches create a holistic healing path for residents of Redding, empowering them to find balance and resilience.
