Trauma can shake you to your core. It can affect the way you think, feel, and function - long after the event has passed. Whether you’ve experienced a single overwhelming event or long-term emotional pain, trauma can leave you feeling disconnected, unsafe, and emotionally stuck. But healing is possible, and you don’t have to go through it alone.
At North Country Clinical Counseling, we provide compassionate, evidence-based trauma therapy for individuals who are ready to take the first steps toward healing. Our approach is gentle, personalized, and deeply respectful of your experiences, no matter how recent or how long ago the trauma occurred. You deserve support that helps you feel safe, grounded, and heard.
Trauma isn’t always physical-it often runs deeper, affecting your emotions, body, relationships, and overall mental health. It can stem from a wide range of experiences, including:
Even events that might seem “minor” to others can be traumatic if they overwhelm your ability to cope. There’s no one-size-fits-all definition of trauma-what matters is how it impacted you.
These responses are normal-but they don’t have to be permanent.
At North Country Clinical Counseling, we specialize in trauma-informed care that honors your story, your pace, and your strength. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting or pretending it didn’t happen—it means learning how to live again without being ruled by fear, shame, or pain.
Our trauma counseling services are grounded in evidence-based approaches proven to support long-term healing and emotional regulation, including:
We work collaboratively with you to create a safe, non-judgmental space where healing can begin. You're always in control of the process - we move at your pace.
We know how difficult it can be to open up about painful experiences. That’s why we focus on creating a gentle, supportive environment where you can feel safe to talk, cry, question, and grow - without judgment.
Whether you’ve been carrying trauma for years or are still in the aftermath of a recent experience, therapy can help you:
Trauma may be part of your past, but it doesn’t have to define your future.
Many people silently carry trauma, hoping it will fade over time. But healing takes more than time—it takes support, understanding, and the right tools. We’re here to walk beside you every step of the way.
Whether this is your first time seeking help or you’re returning to therapy after a break, you are welcome here. Every story matters. Every step forward counts.
If trauma has impacted your life, your relationships, or your ability to feel safe and whole, we’re here to help. North Country Clinical Counseling is a place where you can be seen, supported, and empowered to reclaim your life—at your own pace, on your own terms.
