About us
Restorative Integrations is a boutique therapy practice serving trauma survivors in Florida. We offer a range of specialized services using the latest research-backed techniques and the transformative power of a therapeutic relationship built on mutual trust.
We know that traditional talk therapy serves an important purpose for many people, but we've also seen how it can fall short for others. That's why our clinicians are passionate about using cutting-edge techniques like EMDR and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy to help people find integrative, holistic healing.
We partner with each client to determine what you need to feel safe and finally heal from past experiences that have left you feeling stuck, numb, and disconnected. Together, we'll help you process what you've been through and feel lighter in your day-to-day life.
Our trauma therapy services
EMDR therapy
If you feel triggered when reminded of a past traumatic event or even feel constantly stuck in a state of fight-or-flight, EMDR can help. EMDR stands for eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, and it changes how our brain reacts to memories of past trauma.
You'll be able to acknowledge what happened without feeling flooded with emotional distress, which can help improve your quality of life. Our clinicians offer in-person EMDR therapy in Fort Lauderdale as well as virtual EMDR therapy in Florida.
EMDR intensives
If you want to see results fast or have a schedule that doesn't allow for regular, ongoing therapy sessions, our EMDR intensives may be a good fit for you.
Our intensives take place over one to three days (half or full days) at our soothing office environment in Fort Lauderdale. We'll work with you to fully customize the experience to your unique needs and goals so you can get the most out of our time together.
Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy
Ketamine therapy is one of the latest developments in the world of trauma treatment. Research shows how powerful the combination of ketamine and mental health therapy can be in helping people heal from a variety of mental health concerns, including trauma.
Our clinicians have received extensive training in order to provide ketamine therapy in Florida, and we're committed to engaging in continued education to keep learning more as new research emerges.

FAQs about Trauma counseling
-
The term "trauma" refers to a traumatic event, like an accident, assault, emotional abuse, or other terrifying event that made a person fear for their safety. Some people who have experienced trauma develop PTSD, or post-traumatic stress disorder.
Some common PTSD/trauma symptoms include flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, feelings of numbness, isolation, restlessness, and more. However, not everyone who experiences trauma will develop all of these trauma-related symptoms.
Trauma survivors can also develop other mental health conditions, like anxiety, depression, and substance abuse disorders. Regardless of whether you have a formal diagnosis of PTSD (or other mental health disorders), your experience is valid and you deserve support.
-
A trauma therapist can be any type of mental health professional, including a licensed mental health counselor, licensed clinical social worker, licensed psychologist, or other professional.
The type of therapist you choose isn't as important as their specific credentials and experience. Make sure to choose a therapist with training in trauma-focused therapy approaches and experience helping people who've experienced trauma.
It's also important to find a therapist who you feel comfortable working with. Your therapist won't be your best friend, but forming a strong therapeutic relationship is an important part of the process. Consultations can help you get a sense of who will be the best fit for you.
-
There are many different therapeutic modalities used in treating trauma. We're trained in some of the latest methods, like EMDR and ketamine-assisted therapy. We may also include approaches like parts work and attachment-based therapy when appropriate.
Other therapists specialize in methods like cognitive processing therapy (CPT), prolonged exposure therapy (PE), or dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).
If you're not sure whether our services are the right fit for you, we invite you to reach out for a complimentary consultation.
