Trauma Informed Counseling
Compassionate, Christ-Centered Care for the Wounded and Weary
Are you searching for a trauma informed counselor who integrates faith, science, and compassion? You’ve come to the right place. I’m Aimee Thompson, a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor serving individuals across Texas. I specialize in helping people heal from deep emotional wounds, complex trauma, and faith-related pain, offering a safe, client-led space rooted in both biblical truth and evidence-based trauma care.
What to Expect from the Counseling Process
As a trauma informed counselor, I believe in honoring your story and walking at your pace. My counseling process is centered on:
Creating a Safe and Compassionate Space
Many of my clients come to counseling after being hurt—not just by life’s hardships, but sometimes by well-meaning people or church communities. I offer a warm, judgment-free space where you are free to show up just as you are. Your voice matters, and I will follow your lead throughout the healing journey.
Faith-Based and Evidence-Based Integration
My approach uniquely weaves together biblical truths with the latest trauma research. Whether you’re wrestling with grief, chronic pain, anxiety, or the long-term effects of abusive relationships, I draw from my personal experiences growing up in a pastor’s home and navigating chronic illness to support your healing.
I use proven modalities such as:
- EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
- Internal Family Systems (IFS)
- Attachment Theory
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Somatic Processing
Each tool is thoughtfully chosen to fit your needs and spiritual values.
Specialized Care for Complex Trauma
I hold a Clinical Trauma Certification and advanced training in complex trauma and EMDR. My counseling often supports those navigating:
- Emotional abuse and betrayal
- Ministry-related burnout
- People-pleasing and perfectionism
- Identity and self-worth struggles
- Chronic grief and physical limitations
As a trauma informed counselor, I understand how trauma impacts the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. My integrative, whole-person approach is designed to help you rebuild safety, connection, and hope from the inside out.
Support for All Stages of Life
I work with individuals ages 17 to 70+, including many who serve in ministry or have been deeply impacted by church experiences. Whether you’re just beginning your healing journey or continuing work you’ve already started, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and clarity.
Take the Next Step Toward Healing
If you’re ready to begin your healing journey with a trauma informed counselor who understands both the complexities of faith and the realities of trauma, I invite you to schedule a phone consultation. It would be an honor to support you as you seek wholeness, freedom, and lasting peace.
Start today—because your story is worthy of healing.
