Understanding Trauma

Understanding Trauma and Its Impact

Trauma can have lasting effects on both the mind and body. Survivors may experience a range of symptoms, including anxiety, depression, flashbacks, and difficulty regulating emotions. At LI DBT, we understand that healing requires a comprehensive approach that addresses both the psychological and physical aspects of trauma.

Mind-Body Approach to Healing

Mind: Our clinicians use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help you process trauma and challenge negative beliefs that may have developed as a result of your experiences. These evidence-based techniques empower you to reduce anxiety and manage triggers more effectively.

Body: Trauma affects the nervous system and can create intense physical sensations. We incorporate mindfulness, breath work, vagal toning exerxcises, and yoga practices to help you manage these sensations, regain a sense of safety in your body, and ground yourself in the present moment.

Personalized Treatment Plans

Each individual’s journey with trauma is unique. At Long Island DBT Group, we believe in creating a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Our team offers a range of services, including:
  • Individual Therapy
  • Group Therapy
  • Family Therapy
  • Couples Therapy
  • DBT skills group
For those who may benefit from a group setting, we offer a skills group option to learn additional ways to cope through the trauma healing experience and assist in learning ways to thrive as one rebuilds their life after trauma.
