Yes, therapy sessions at Touchstone Trauma Therapy are confidential. We adhere to strict ethical guidelines to ensure your privacy and safety, allowing you to share your experiences in a secure and supportive environment.
Somatic Therapy is a form of body-centered therapy that emphasizes the connection between the brain, mind, and body. It utilizes body awareness as a therapeutic tool to explore and resolve the somatic (physical) symptoms of psychological issues. This approach helps individuals recognize and release the physical tension that remains in the body due to past trauma and stress.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a transformative therapeutic model of psychotherapy that helps individuals understand and harmonize the various parts within themselves. According to IFS, we all have different parts within us that carry different thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. These parts can sometimes conflict with each other and create internal struggles and difficulties in our lives. IFS is commonly utilized to work with trauma memories or difficult childhood experiences.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured approach that treats trauma by safely reconnecting individuals with the traumatic images, thoughts, emotions, and body sensations they experienced, leveraging the brain’s natural healing process—Adaptive Information Processing (AIP).
Unlike traditional talk therapy, which often focuses on the traumatic event itself, EMDR targets the emotional disturbances and symptoms stemming from the trauma. The goal is to process these troubling memories, reduce their impact, and help clients develop healthier coping mechanisms.
Through EMDR, memories are transferred from the emotional part of the brain (limbic system) to long-term storage, transforming them from intrusive relived experiences into memories of past events that no longer wield disruptive power.

Trauma-informed care is an approach to therapy that recognizes how past trauma can affect a person’s thoughts, emotions, relationships, and physical responses. It focuses on creating a safe, supportive, and respectful environment where clients feel heard, empowered, and never pressured. At Touchstone Trauma Therapy, trauma-informed care means tailoring treatment to each person’s needs while using approaches that support healing at a pace that feels manageable and safe. At TTT, we utilize Evidence Based modalities such as EMDR, IFS and Somatic/Mindfulness that are effective in addressing and healing from trauma, including complex trauma.
Starting therapy begins with reaching out to schedule an initial consultation or first appointment. During that first step, we will talk about what brings you to therapy, your goals, and any questions you may have about the process. From there, we can determine the best approach for your needs and begin creating a treatment plan that feels supportive, personalized, and manageable.
Yes, therapy sessions are confidential. Protecting your privacy is an important part of creating a safe and supportive therapeutic space. There are a few legal and ethical limits to confidentiality, which will be reviewed with you at the beginning of therapy, but in general, what you share in session is kept private and treated with care and respect.
Somatic therapy supports trauma healing by helping clients notice and work with how trauma is held in the body, not just in thoughts or memories. Trauma can affect the nervous system in ways that lead to tension, overwhelm, numbness, or feeling constantly on edge. Through gentle body-based awareness and regulation techniques, somatic therapy helps clients reconnect with their bodies, build a greater sense of safety, and process trauma in a way that feels grounded and manageable.
That is completely understandable. Not every therapy experience is the right fit, and a previous approach that did not feel helpful does not mean therapy cannot be meaningful for you now. At Touchstone Trauma Therapy, I offer a personalized, trauma-informed approach tailored to your unique needs, goals, and pace. Together, we work to create a safe and supportive space that feels more aligned with the healing you are seeking.
Your first therapy session is an opportunity for me to begin building a thoughtful understanding of your experiences, concerns, and goals.

This initial session is designed to help you feel at ease while laying the foundation for a therapeutic approach that is personalized to your needs.

To get started, we encourage you to contact us for a consultation. During this initial meeting, you will have the opportunity to discuss your concerns, goals, and any specific challenges you may be facing related to self-esteem. Our therapists will listen attentively and begin to understand your unique situation, allowing us to tailor a therapy plan that suits your needs. Whether you are struggling with negative self-talk, body image issues, or feelings of inadequacy, we will work collaboratively to develop strategies that empower you to overcome these obstacles.
In our sessions, you can expect a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. We employ various therapeutic techniques that have been shown to be effective in enhancing self-esteem. These may include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and self-compassion exercises. By integrating these approaches, we aim to equip you with the tools to challenge negative beliefs and cultivate a more positive self-image.
We understand that self-esteem is not just an abstract concept; it can deeply affect your daily life, relationships, and overall happiness. For instance, low self-esteem may prevent you from pursuing opportunities at work or forming meaningful connections with others. Our goal is to help you recognize these patterns and break free from them. With our guidance, you will learn to celebrate your strengths and achievements, no matter how small they may seem.
To individual therapy, we also offer group therapy sessions focused on self-esteem enhancement. Engaging with others who share similar experiences can foster a sense of community and understanding. These sessions provide a supportive space for sharing challenges and successes, allowing you to gain insights and encouragement from others on their journey. Building connections with peers can be an invaluable aspect of your healing process, reinforcing the idea that you are not alone in your struggles.
As you begin your journey with us, we also encourage you to practice self-care outside of therapy. This can include activities that promote physical and emotional well-being, such as exercise, journaling, or engaging in hobbies you love. Sacramento County offers numerous parks and recreational areas where you can enjoy nature and practice mindfulness. Taking time for yourself is essential in nurturing your self-esteem and reinforcing the positive changes we work on together.
To help you stay on track, we will set realistic goals during our sessions. These goals will serve as milestones on your journey, allowing you to measure your progress and celebrate your achievements. Whether it's improving your body image, asserting yourself more confidently in social situations, or simply acknowledging your worth, each step forward is a victory worth recognizing.
When you are ready to take that first step towards a healthier self-esteem, contact Touchstone Trauma Therapy. Our dedicated team is here to walk alongside you, providing the support and tools you need to transform your self-perception and build a fulfilling life. Together, we will create a personalized path toward healing and empowerment, ensuring that you feel valued and confident in who you are.
