Prolonged Exposure Therapy: Reducing Trauma’s Grip on Your Life
Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE) is an evidence-based treatment designed to help people safely confront memories, feelings, and situations they’ve been avoiding because of trauma. Instead of staying stuck in fear or avoidance, PE gently guides you through facing these experiences in a structured, supportive way.

The Process of Gradual Healing
How Prolonged Exposure Therapy Works
PE works by helping you gradually approach memories and situations you’ve been avoiding. Through repeated and supported exposure, these experiences lose their overwhelming power, allowing you to feel safer and more in control. With time, the brain learns that past trauma no longer defines your present.
