Trauma Therapist in Corning, NY

Your Trauma Is Real and So Is Your Strength
Trauma Doesn’t Have to Control Your Life
You’ve tried to push past it. You tell yourself it’s in the past, that it shouldn’t still affect you. But no matter how hard you try, the memories, the pain, and the self-doubt creep in. Some days, you feel disconnected, like you’re just going through the motions. Other days, the weight of it all makes it hard to function.
Maybe you struggle to trust people, or you find yourself pulling away before anyone gets too close. Maybe certain places, sounds, or situations send you into a spiral. You might blame yourself or wonder if you’re just too sensitive. But deep down, you know this isn’t how you want to live.
You don’t have to keep pretending you’re okay. A trauma therapist can help you process the past in a way that feels safe and manageable. You deserve a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood.
Trauma Changes You but It Doesn’t Have to Define You
What Is Trauma Therapy?
Trauma therapy helps you process what happened without reliving it in a way that feels overwhelming. It’s not just about talking, it’s about understanding how trauma has shaped you and learning how to take back control.
We use Cognitive Processing Therapy, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems to help you heal. If you’ve been avoiding your feelings, our team of trauma therapists can give you the tools to work through them safely and at your own pace. If your trauma has affected your relationships, self-esteem, or ability to function, we help you rebuild trust in yourself and others. No forced conversations. No judgment. Just real support, tailored to you.
A Different Approach to Trauma Care

We work with women, the LGBTQ+ community, military personnel, students, and those from marginalized backgrounds who need a space where they feel understood. Whether you prefer structured sessions, open-ended discussions, or strategies to help in daily life, we create a plan that works for you. You don’t have to do this alone, support is here.

Small Steps Lead to Big Changes
A Life Without Constant Overwhelm is Possible
Imagine waking up and actually feeling calm instead of anxious. Imagine trusting yourself, making decisions without second-guessing, and feeling safe in your own body.
This doesn’t mean the past disappears. But it does mean that it stops controlling you. You start setting boundaries without guilt. You stop replaying painful memories on a loop. You recognize that what happened to you doesn’t define you.
Trauma therapy helps you step into a version of yourself that isn’t ruled by fear, shame, or the past. It helps you build a life that feels like your own again.
