Therapy offers a safe space to explore these experiences and begin to understand how they shape your present. Through approaches such as EMDR and trauma‑focused CBT, it is possible to process what happened, release old patterns, and create new ways of coping. Many clients describe this stage as a shift — moving from simply surviving to truly living. If you have been considering therapy, know that you don’t have to face these challenges alone. Taking the first step toward support can be the beginning of meaningful change.
