Healing from Trauma: You Don’t Have to Do It Alone
Life can throw more at us than we feel we can handle at times. For those who’ve experienced trauma—whether it’s big or small—the weight can feel suffocating. Whether it’s a major event like grief, sexual assault, or childhood neglect, or the accumulation of smaller, more subtle traumas, you might feel stuck, overwhelmed, and unsure of how to move forward.
If you've experienced complex trauma, PTSD, or emotional neglect, you might find yourself struggling in ways that are hard to articulate. It’s common to minimize these struggles, especially if you’ve been the strong, high-achieving one in your family or community. You may have learned to push through and keep going, but internally, you feel exhausted and disconnected. It’s hard to thrive in relationships or practice self-care, and it’s even harder to give yourself the compassion you so easily offer others.
At Black Bold and Learning Therapy in Colorado Springs, CO, I understand that trauma isn’t just about the big, obvious events. It’s the small "t" traumas, the emotional neglect, the suppressed feelings, and the constant pressure to be strong that all pile up over time, creating complex emotional wounds. I’m here to help you heal, reconnect with yourself, and move toward a future where you can finally experience peace and wholeness.
Symptoms of PTSD and Trauma
Trauma doesn’t look the same for everyone, and the signs of PTSD can manifest in many different ways. Here are some common symptoms that clients come to me with:
Feeling stuck or overwhelmed by emotions you can’t control
Replaying past experiences (flashbacks, intrusive thoughts, nightmares)
Difficulty with relationships—feeling disconnected or avoiding others
Emotional numbness or shutting down in response to stress
Physical tension or health issues from holding onto past trauma
Hypervigilance—always feeling on edge or anxious
Self-blame or shame related to your trauma or upbringing
Difficulty with boundaries and struggling to say "no" to others
Perfectionism or overachievement as a coping mechanism for fear of failure
If any of this resonates with you, it’s possible that you're dealing with PTSD, complex trauma, or an attachment wound that’s impacting your emotional and mental well-being.

The Black Bold and Learning Therapy’s Approach to PTSD Treatment and Trauma Therapy
At Black Bold and Learning Therapy in Colorado, I use a variety of therapeutic approaches that focus on healing from the inside out. My goal is to help you find peace, build healthier relationships, and live a life aligned with your values. I combine Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Somatic Experiencing and Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, and Values-Based Work to provide you with the tools to process trauma, regain control over your emotional responses, and build a more empowered sense of self.
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
CPT is a well-established approach for treating PTSD. It helps individuals challenge and reframe negative beliefs related to their trauma. Many people who have experienced trauma develop harmful beliefs about themselves, the world, or others. I’ll help you identify those thoughts and replace them with healthier, more balanced perspectives.
Somatic Experiencing and Mindfulness
Trauma doesn’t just live in your thoughts—it’s stored in your body. Somatic Experiencing focuses on helping you release physical tension and emotional blocks that are rooted in trauma. Through mindfulness and body-based techniques, I help you process and regulate emotions in a way that reconnects you with the present moment and allows for healing.
Narrative Therapy
This therapy invites you to reshape the story of your life. Trauma often distorts how we see ourselves, but by revisiting and reframing your past, I help you reconnect with your authentic self. This approach helps clients build resilience and rewrite their stories, focusing on strength, hope, and growth.
Values-Based Work
Trauma can make it hard to see what’s important to you. I work with you to identify your core values and help you live in alignment with those values, even in the face of difficulty. This work is essential for finding meaning and purpose as you heal.
