If you want therapy that’s both practical and respectful of what you’ve been through, trauma-informed therapy might be the best choice. Bridge to Balance provides this service through telehealth for clients in Portland, Maine, making it easy to get tailored care from the comfort of home. Online therapy for trauma may allow you to feel safer if you’re starting this process for the first time, especially if your symptoms include hypervigilance, panic, or shutdown. Have no fear—our team will work at your pace.

What Do We Mean by “Trauma-Informed Therapy?”

Trauma-informed therapy isn’t simply about treading carefully during sessions. Instead, it’s a method that guides treatment for anxiety, depression, relationship distress, and chronic stress through a deep understanding of the nervous system. A trauma therapist helps you:

• Identify triggers
• Learn valuable stabilization skills
• Process stuck experiences

And more. Telehealth can include EMDR preparation and processing, DBT skills, TF-CBT strategies, mindfulness-based work, and body-centered approaches adapted as needed.
