You have the power to rewrite your story
Exploring Trauma
Trauma is life-altering, it changes you…but it doesn’t have to define you. Trauma Counseling in Pennsylvania at WPA Counseling…we recognize each person’s experience is different and focus on helping you understand its effects on you and how best to address them. We utilize evidence-based treatment approaches tailored to your needs.
We believe in providing our clients with knowledge about trauma and its effect on thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Gaining this understanding is vitally important when embarking on healing as it allows individuals to identify and effectively tackle trauma-related challenges effectively. Throughout this process clients are shown how to take back control and no longer allow the trauma to define them. It is important to develop an identity as a survivor and someone who can and will thrive in life
