Healing isn’t forgetting — it’s giving the past less power over your present.

— How We Work

Who It’s For

If trauma is
still showing up.

Trauma can come from a single event or years of difficult experience. Either way, it doesn’t just stay in the past — it shows up in your body, your relationships, and your daily life.

  • You’re dealing with anxiety, triggers, or flashbacks.

  • You feel constantly on edge or hypervigilant.

  • Something happened — and you’ve never really processed it.

  • You experience emotional numbness or disconnection.

  • Past experiences are getting in the way of the life you want.

What to Expect

Real healing, at a pace you can hold.

01

A safe, paced space to process

Trauma work is never pushed faster than feels right. You stay in control of what we explore and when.

02

Grounding tools you can use today

Practical strategies for the moments when triggers, flashbacks, or anxiety hit — so you have something to lean on between sessions.

03

ART available when it fits

Trisha’s signature modality, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, can move trauma work forward faster — without requiring you to retell every detail.

Working With Trisha

Trauma is Trisha’s specialty.

Trisha specializes in trauma therapy and uses Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) as her primary modality for clients who want deeper, faster healing than talk therapy alone.

Her training also includes work with military service members and first responders — populations whose trauma often goes unspoken or unaddressed for years.

Whether you’re working through a single event or layered, lifelong experiences, the goal is the same: helping you feel grounded, present, and free from what’s been carrying weight in your life.

Common Questions

Things people ask before starting trauma work.

Don’t see your question? Send us a message or call 801-550-9099.

  • Do I have to share every detail of what happened?
    No. Especially with ART, you don’t have to verbally process every detail — the work happens through guided eye movements and visualization, on your terms.
  • Will trauma therapy make things worse before they get better?
    Trauma work is paced carefully so you build resources and stability before processing the harder material. We move at the speed your nervous system can handle.
  • Is ART always part of trauma therapy here?
    Not always — but it’s often the most effective option, especially for clients who want faster relief or don’t want to verbally relive what happened. We’ll talk through what’s right for you.
  • Is this trauma-informed?
    Yes. Every part of the work — pacing, choice, transparency, building safety — follows trauma-informed principles.
  • I’m a veteran or first responder — do you work with us?
    Yes. Trisha has Clinical Military Counselor training and works with service members and first responders dealing with operational stress, combat trauma, and the unique pressures of those roles.
