Trauma describes a multitude of experiences that include the threat of harm or death, torture or violence, non-consensual acts of sex, and a violation of the victim's boundaries, often leading to a loss of safety in the world. Sexual or otherwise, trauma is everywhere—around us and through us, in different degrees and with varying impacts. Understanding how trauma works in the mind and body can provide insight and empathy about your own and others’ behavior and leads to holistic healing.
Re-empowering yourself after acute or chronic trauma may seem daunting—but we can teach you proven techniques & strategies for managing how you feel and regaining a sense of self and wholeness.
Trauma is complicated! All of us at RISE have been there—we know what it's like, how trauma touches every corner of your life.
We also know from experience that you can rise above horrific trauma—and create a life you love. Here we offer trauma therapy & coaching. But, what exactly is the difference?
Therapy is a rigorously structured and regulated model based on untangling the past to understand and process a diagnosis.
Coaching describes a solution-driven process of retraining yourself how to react to the world in ways you want to—guided by your trauma-informed coach.
