At Steve Hammil Counseling, we believe that trauma should never define an individual's story. Our therapy services are designed to help adults who have experienced complex trauma, adverse childhood experiences, dissociative disorders, and narcissistic abuse heal and move forward.
As a licensed mental health counselor, Steve Hammil has extensive experience in working with survivors of trauma. He has earned a master's degree in psychology from Antioch University Seattle and has received advanced training in complex trauma, dissociation, and sensorimotor Psychotherapy.
Our Specialties
We specialize in providing trauma-informed therapy for individuals who have experienced complex trauma, including adverse childhood experiences, dissociative disorders, and narcissistic abuse. Our therapy approach is centered around creating a safe and non-judgmental space for our clients to process their experiences and emotions.
Trauma-Informed Therapy
Our trauma-informed therapy approach acknowledges the lasting impact of traumatic experiences on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. We work with our clients to understand the connections between their past traumas and how they continue to affect their lives in the present. Our therapy sessions focus on creating a sense of safety and empowerment, allowing our clients to process their emotions and work towards healing and recovery.
Complex Trauma and Related Issues
Complex trauma refers to the cumulative effects of repeated adverse childhood experiences, resulting in a complex mix of dysregulated nervous systems, emotional wounding, and life lessons tuned to survival in extreme circumstances. We work with our clients to understand the impact of complex trauma on their daily lives and help them develop coping strategies to manage their symptoms.
Dissociative Disorders
Dissociative disorders, such as Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), can be a result of adverse childhood experiences. Our therapy approach acknowledges the complexity of DID and works with our clients to develop strategies for managing their symptoms and coping with their experiences.
Narcissistic Abuse
Narcissistic abuse can have a profound impact on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. Our therapy approach works with our clients to understand the dynamics of narcissistic abuse and develop strategies for addressing their emotional pain and building healthier relationships.
