Trauma Therapy

Living with the weight of past trauma can make even ordinary days feel exhausting. Whether it stems from a single difficult event or years of ongoing stress, trauma can show up as anxiety, emotional numbness, trouble trusting others, or a nervous system that never quite feels at ease.

At Juno Counseling, we provide expert trauma therapy in Palm Beach Gardens for adults, teens, and children working to process difficult experiences and reclaim a sense of safety. Our therapists use evidence-based methods like EMDR, somatic therapy, and the Safe and Sound Protocol to help you heal at your own pace.

Signs It Might Be Time for Trauma Therapy

  • You feel on edge or easily startled, even in safe situations
  • Certain memories, places, or feelings cause intense emotional or physical reactions
  • You feel disconnected from your body, your emotions, or the people around you
  • Sleep, concentration, or relationships have been affected since a difficult experience
  • Past trauma keeps resurfacing, even when you try not to think about it

Our Approach to Trauma Therapy

We don't just ask you to talk through what happened. We help your nervous system learn that it's safe again.

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): We use EMDR to help clients reprocess distressing memories so they lose their emotional charge. Learn more about EMDR therapy at Juno.
  • Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP):  A polyvagal-based sound therapy that helps calm the nervous system and build a foundation for deeper trauma work. Learn more about the Safe and Sound Protocol.
  • Sensory Room: Clients can decompress in our on-site sensory room after sessions, a unique offering at our Palm Beach Gardens practice. Learn more about our sensory room.

Frequently Asked Questions About Trauma Therapy

What is trauma therapy?

Trauma therapy helps people process distressing or overwhelming experiences so those experiences no longer control day-to-day life. At Juno, this often includes EMDR, somatic approaches, and nervous-system-focused techniques like the Safe and Sound Protocol.

Do I need a specific diagnosis to start trauma therapy?

No. You don't need a PTSD diagnosis to benefit from trauma therapy. Many clients come in simply feeling "stuck" or overwhelmed by something from their past.

How long does trauma therapy take?

This varies by person and by what you're working through. Some clients see meaningful shifts within a number of sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support. Your therapist will walk you through what to expect.

Is EMDR painful or re-traumatizing?

No. EMDR is designed to help you process difficult memories without having to relive every detail in words. Most clients find it less distressing than traditional talk therapy about the same events.

Can children receive trauma therapy at Juno?

Yes. Several of our clinicians specialize in trauma therapy for children and teens, often incorporating play therapy or EMDR adapted for younger clients.
