Trauma Recovery

Compassionate Care for Healing What Hurts

Trauma can leave deep emotional marks—whether it stems from a single event or years of painful experiences. At Awareness Lounge Counseling, we offer gentle, evidence-based trauma therapy to help you process what happened, reconnect with yourself, and move toward a life no longer shaped by fear or shame.

Understanding Trauma

Trauma isn’t always visible. It can show up as anxiety, depression, emotional numbness, chronic stress, or feeling stuck in survival mode. Whether you’ve experienced abuse, loss, accidents, neglect, or cultural or intergenerational trauma, your response is valid—and healing is possible.

Patricia Cisnero, MS, LPC, is trained in trauma-informed care and takes a culturally sensitive approach to every session. You’ll never be rushed, judged, or forced to re-live your story—only gently supported as you heal at your own pace.
