Trauma can manifest in many ways: anxiety, disconnection, emotional numbness, reactivity, or the inability to feel safe in relationships. These symptoms aren’t signs of brokenness—they’re intelligent survival responses. Trauma counseling, when done right, is all about gently and patiently unwinding these patterns at a pace that feels right for you.

At Standing Strong Within in Eugene, Oregon, clients can try trauma-informed counseling and coaching that supports deep emotional healing without pathologizing their pain. Here, a dedicated trauma counselor guides individuals through the complex layers of their inner experiences, helping to reconnect the body with emotions and their sense of self.

A More Personalized Approach to Treating Trauma

Unlike traditional trauma treatment methods that focus on diagnoses and treatment plans, Marna’s approach centers on building a healing relationship where you feel seen, heard, and respected. Using a basis of somatics and present-moment guidance, Marna will support you in moving through inner resistance, accessing buried emotions, and cultivating a deeper tolerance for what arises. This creates the space for your nervous system to re-regulate and for your emotional life to feel more grounded and spacious.
