Therapy Offerings
At Mosaic Bloom Counseling, we offer specialized trauma therapy services including EMDR, CBT, and trauma-focused therapy, weaving together both personal and identity-based experiences to support your healing journey.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a powerful therapeutic approach that helps you heal from difficult or traumatic experiences by engaging your brain's natural ability to recover and grow. Using gentle bilateral stimulation (side-to-side eye movements or other forms of rhythmic stimulation), EMDR helps your brain process memories that may feel stuck or overwhelming, allowing them to be stored in a way that no longer carries the same emotional weight. Think of it like untangling a knot – we work together to help your mind naturally process experiences that may be causing distress, leading to relief from troubling symptoms and a greater sense of peace.
Trauma-Focused Therapy
Trauma-focused therapy at Mosaic Bloom offers a safe, culturally responsive space to heal from both personal traumas and the deep impacts of identity-based harm. This integrative approach recognizes that trauma can stem from both individual experiences and systemic oppression, affecting how you feel, think, and move through the world. Whether you're healing from specific traumatic events, racial trauma, gender-based discrimination, religious prejudice, or other forms of identity-based harm, we'll work together at your pace to build safety, develop practical coping skills, and process these experiences in ways that honor your whole, authentic self. Drawing from proven therapeutic methods and an identity-affirming framework, we'll create a personalized path that helps you transform painful experiences into sources of strength while reclaiming your sense of peace and empowerment.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a gentle yet powerful approach that helps you understand the deep connection between your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Think of it as learning to be your own compassionate detective, exploring how your mind works and discovering new ways to respond to life's challenges. Together, we'll identify thinking patterns that may have helped you cope in the past but might not serve you well today, and develop practical tools to create positive changes in your daily life.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
IFS therapy offers a transformative approach to healing that recognizes the natural multiplicity within each of us. This evidence-based model understands that our inner world is made up of different parts – like members of an internal family – each carrying their own beliefs, emotions, and memories. Some parts may feel hurt or stuck in the past, while others work hard to protect us. Through IFS, we work together to understand these parts with curiosity and compassion, helping them release old burdens and find more adaptive ways of being. By getting to know and appreciate all aspects of yourself, you can develop greater self-leadership and inner harmony, creating lasting positive change from the inside out.
