Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy is a general term for treating mental health problems by talking with a psychiatrist, psychologist or other mental health provider.
It’s very common, and only human, to feel anxious, depressed, or confused at some point in life. When these feelings or other life changes make life feel unmanageable, therapy can be an effective way to make a change. Nevertheless, acknowledging that it may be helpful to talk to someone about what’s going on in your life takes a lot of courage.
Everybody’s life has its ups and downs. You may be trying to achieve more balance in your life, to have more harmonious family and personal relationships, or to experience greater personal fulfillment. Or perhaps you are on a journey towards a New Beginnings.

Trauma
Trauma care at New Beginnings focuses on helping individuals who have experienced significant emotional and psychological distress as a result of traumatic events. Trauma-informed care is built on a foundation of safety, trust, and empathy. It recognizes that trauma can have profound and lasting effects on a person’s mental and emotional well-being.
One key aspect of trauma care is the use of evidence-based therapies such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT). These therapies aim to address the distressing symptoms often associated with trauma, like flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance.
Additionally, trauma care emphasizes the importance of creating a supportive and non-judgmental therapeutic environment. New Beginnings is trained to be sensitive to the unique needs and triggers of trauma survivors, promoting a sense of safety and empowerment in the healing process. This approach not only helps individuals cope with the immediate aftermath of trauma but also fosters resilience and post-traumatic growth, enabling survivors to rebuild their lives and regain a sense of control and well-being.
