PTSD Therapy and Treatment in Denver, Littleton, and Centennial

There is no one best therapy for PTSD; it all depends on what approach will help you process the trauma you’ve experienced. However, many clients find greater success with EMDR than traditional talk therapy. 

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy used to help clients resolve traumatic memories in a way that is often more effective than traditional talk therapy. There are many great benefits to EMDR therapy for the resolution of PTSD symptoms.  For more information on this therapy, please visit our page, About EMDR.

Although traumas, both large and small, can feel debilitating, you do not need to continue to suffer. Reaching out for help through trauma therapy, counseling and treatment is the first step to healing. Trauma counseling and PTSD treatment are solutions that will help you to get on the track to feeling better, more productive and able to live your life without being overwhelmed by the weight of those negative feelings.

At Greenwood Counseling Center, we specialize in providing trauma counseling, complex trauma counseling and PTSD treatment in Denver and the surrounding areas.

We have provided trauma counseling to hundreds of clients, many of whom have experienced tragic loss, childhood abuse, sexual abuse, prolonged exposure to trauma or abuse, or unthinkable crises. There is no comprehensive list of PTSD symptoms for individuals.

What we have learned in our work with these individuals is that the human spirit is amazingly resilient. Some of the most impressive and empowered people have endured devastating loss and trauma, and have recovered after emerging from the difficult feelings that accompany these experiences. Through effective trauma counseling, they have learned to embrace themselves fully, accept the story of their life, and claim empowerment over themselves and their choices.

Talking about your feelings and experiences in a safe environment with a trusted counselor can actually make you feel better when the therapist understands the unique aspects of working with trauma. We understand how difficult it can be to share such emotionally charged memories with someone. 

We work to establish trust with our clients so that discussing these emotions is not so difficult   We begin trauma work by teaching skills and tools to help you cope with the difficult emotions that are the result of traumatic experiences.  

We then may use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) in the trauma therapy. This approach to therapy helps you to draw from your strengths and resources as you process the difficult information in the safe environment of our offices.
