Lionel Latouche - Kairos Psychotherapy & Wellness
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma has a profound way of impacting how we see, think, and navigate the world around us. It is also incredibly sensitive because, often, we are re-traumatized by things, people, or events we may encounter. In therapy, we analyze those triggers and the defense mechanisms we developed to cope with them. We gain a better understanding of our unspoken needs regarding the trauma, as well as its visible and invisible impacts on our bodies. As we process the trauma that exists in our bodies, we concurrently work to reframe the events in healthy, meaningful ways, developing coping skills to better manage our bodies and emotions should we encounter a future trigger.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma isn’t just about what happened—it’s about how your nervous system responded. When trauma remains unresolved, it can show up as anxiety, shame, anger, numbness, flashbacks, sleep disturbance, relationship struggles, or chronic tension. Even long after the event is over, your body may still feel stuck in survival mode.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps your brain process traumatic experiences so they no longer carry the same emotional intensity. Rather than reliving the past, EMDR helps your system integrate it—so it stops disrupting your present.
Healing doesn’t mean forgetting. It means loosening trauma’s grip so you can feel safer, more grounded, and more like yourself again.
When appropriate, we may integrate other approaches such as IFS or talk therapy—but EMDR is often the foundation of trauma treatment in my practice.
