You can move beyond traumatic life experiences and memories.
Trauma occurs in different forms and can impact you in various ways.
Sometimes, others may not see the debilitating and pervasive impact your traumatic experiences and memories have on you.
Instead, they focus on what you’ve achieved, how you show up each day in your life, or how others turn to you for help. They don’t see what’s happening inside you — how you feel, struggle, or think. They don’t understand how the changes in your thoughts, behaviors, or emotions impact your daily life.
For instance, you may struggle to:
- Trust yourself or others
- Feel safe and secure
- Relate to others
- Feel confident in yourself
- Deal with flashbacks or re experience images and emotions of what happened
- Express your thoughts and feelings in relationships
- Cope with feelings of depression, anxiety, or loneliness
- Sleep consistently or may experience other physical symptoms, like tension, nausea, or stomach aches
- Go to certain places, preferring to avoid some situations, people, or areas
- Deal with stress or feel present in your life
You can regain control of your life and thrive regardless of the type of trauma or when it occurred.
Some traumas are a single large-scale event, like an assault, robbery, natural disaster, or car accident.
Other times, trauma can be a series of experiences that build over time, such as verbal, physical, or sexual abuse, neglect, abandonment, or growing up in an unpredictable home.
Additionally, you may experience the impact of the trauma immediately after the event. Or your symptoms may grow gradually — not appearing until time has passed.
Regardless of the type of trauma, your symptoms, or when they occurred, you can move beyond these difficult experiences and memories so you feel like yourself again.
You can process and heal from trauma in a safe, supportive space — and at your pace.
Coping and working through trauma on your own is difficult to do.
Our licensed therapists at Beacon Therapy of Utah are here for you — to assist you in reprocessing the experiences and memories safely. Our integrative and collaborative therapy approach allows us to work with you at your pace. So you can process, heal, and move forward from your trauma.
We create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space so you can openly share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
Your sense of safety and peace of mind is essential. Our trauma-trained therapists will work with you so you feel in control and secure throughout the therapy process.
Trauma therapy can empower you — helping you reclaim your life, feel confident, and move forward.
You can’t change your past. But you can change how you respond and how it impacts you.
Trauma therapy takes time, and working through trauma is a process. For instance, you won’t start exploring your most difficult experiences until you’re ready. Instead, our experts will work with you to ensure you feel safe, comfortable, and emotionally supported first.
During therapy, you will be able to process and heal by:
- Gaining insights about yourself, past experiences, and what you’ve accomplished
- Identifying habits, beliefs, or ways of acting that negatively impact you or your relationships
- Learn coping strategies to help you manage stress, express yourself effectively, and deal with life challenges
- Developing self-care strategies
- Reconnecting with yourself and your life goals
Our team of experts uses an integrative trauma therapy approach tailored to your specific needs. Our therapists incorporate various evidence-based therapies, including:
- Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy
- Motivational Interviewing
We specialize in helping teens, young adults, and adults work through recent event traumas, childhood traumas, and multi-event trauma.

You don’t have to feel stuck by your traumatic experiences or memories. Our licensed therapists at Beacon Therapy of Utah can help you process, heal, and move forward — so you can create the life and relationships you want.
