Trauma Therapy in San Francisco
Finding Support for Trauma in the Bay Area
Trauma can leave you feeling disconnected, on edge, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Whether you’re navigating the effects of a single overwhelming event or the weight of ongoing stress, trauma therapy can help you find relief and healing.
At Stillpoint Therapy Collective, we offer trauma-informed care rooted in somatic and relational approaches. Serving San Francisco and the Bay Area, our therapists provide a compassionate space to process your experiences and rebuild trust in yourself and your relationships.
What Is Trauma Therapy?
Trauma therapy is designed to help you gently process painful or overwhelming experiences without retraumatization. By focusing on nervous system regulation, present-moment awareness, and compassionate connection, trauma therapy allows you to move beyond survival mode and begin to thrive.
Common Signs of Trauma
While everyone responds differently, some signs that trauma therapy may be helpful include:
Feeling hypervigilant or “always on edge”
Difficulty sleeping or concentrating
Numbness, shutdown, or feeling disconnected from your body
Intrusive memories, nightmares, or flashbacks
Struggles with trust, boundaries, or relationships
Chronic stress, tension, or physical symptoms that don’t resolve
At Stillpoint, our therapists integrate:
Somatic Therapy & Somatic Experiencing – body-based practices for nervous system healing
Brainspotting and EMDR-informed approaches – to gently access and process stuck trauma
Mindfulness and Hakomi – to uncover unconscious beliefs and create new choices
Relational and identity-affirming therapy – honoring who you are and how you want to live
We work at a pace that feels safe and collaborative, always centering your choice and agency.
