Healing Hearts provides grief and trauma-informed therapists who are passionate that healing happens as we care for the mind, body, and soul. We believe strongly in the human capacity for healing and the ability to live in freedom. When we experience trauma, loss, or difficult life circumstances, we can find ourselves stuck in unhealthy patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior that can cause negative self-beliefs, emotional disturbance, and somatic responses in the body that can be self-destructive and wounding. There is hope! And you are not alone. Our therapists are trauma-informed and specialize in EMDR, grief, and other trauma modalities. We would love to walk alongside you as you heal and learn to live your fullest life!
