Do you ever feel like the past won’t loosen its grip on you— like no matter how much time passes, you’re still stuck in survival mode?

Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) can happen when you’ve lived through multiple traumatic experiences over time— what’s often called “complex trauma.” These experiences are usually overwhelming, deeply distressing, and often inescapable, leaving you feeling like you had no safe way out.

With C-PTSD, you may find yourself living with a constant sense of danger, avoiding reminders of what happened, or being pulled back into the pain through intrusive thoughts, nightmares, or flashbacks that feel like they’re happening all over again. On top of that, C-PTSD can bring even more challenges— like feeling disconnected from yourself, struggling to manage your emotions, carrying painful beliefs about who you are, and finding it hard to fully trust or connect with others.

If this sounds like your experience, please know this: you’re not broken. With the right support, you can feel safer in your own body, rebuild trust with yourself, and create a life that’s no longer ruled by the past.

Do you ever feel like your thoughts and feelings are running the show— keeping you stuck and holding you back from the life you want?

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a research-backed approach that can help you build a different relationship with your inner world. Instead of fighting or avoiding painful thoughts and feelings— a struggle that’s especially common with trauma and C-PTSD— ACT teaches you how to make space for them, so they no longer control you.

Through ACT, you’ll practice staying present, accepting discomfort when it arises, and taking actions that align with what truly matters to you. Bit by bit, you can begin to reclaim your life and move toward a future that feels more free, meaningful, and your own.

Healing is possible, and you don’t have to stay stuck.

Do you ever feel like the past still has a hold on you, making it hard to feel present or live the life you want?

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) offers practical tools to help you loosen that grip. ACT uses six key principles to support healing: staying grounded in the present moment, practicing acceptance of painful emotions, seeing your thoughts as just thoughts rather than absolute truths (defusion), connecting with your observing self (self-as-context), clarifying what truly matters to you (values), and taking meaningful steps toward that life (committed action).

With ACT, you can learn to face your inner world with greater compassion and flexibility, so painful memories and emotions no longer hold all the power. Over time, this approach helps you reconnect with your values, strengthen your sense of self, and create a life that feels more like your own.

You can find freedom in the present and take back your life, one step at a time.
