Therapists in Redlands, CA

My ideal client is a survivor of human trafficking dealing with overwhelming shame, guilt, and feelings of worthlessness due to the stigma attached to their experience. They need a safe and validating space to heal and understand that being trafficked was not their fault. Their goals are to reclaim their sense of self, overcome emotional and mental challenges, and rebuild their fragmented identity. They want to feel valued, whole, and complete, free from the burdens of their past, so they can lead fulfilling lives. Their motivation is to regain their dignity and self-worth after the trauma they've survived.

You’ve overcome a lot, and yet are having a tough time containing the feelings, thoughts, and physical sensations this time. It’s spilling out into your personal and professional relationships and moving you further away from the life you imagined for yourself. You've reached your maximum bandwidth and before you know it, old patterns creep back in. The confidence that you'll be okay slips away with each day. You're realizing you need support to not only heal and accept what is, but also to transform and be able to grow through this!
