Is Trauma Therapy Right For You?
You might not identify with the word trauma—and that’s okay. Many people come to therapy because they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, even if they can’t point to a single “big” event.
You may notice things like:
Your body feels tense, on edge, or exhausted—like it never fully relaxes
Strong emotional reactions seem to come out of nowhere
You feel numb, shut down, or disconnected from yourself or others
You overthink, people-please, or feel responsible for everyone else’s emotions
Certain situations or relationships feel unsafe, even when you know you’re not in danger
You struggle to rest, slow down, or feel at ease
You feel shame or self-blame without fully understanding why
You keep repeating the same patterns, even when you know better
You may also identify with:
Growing up without consistent emotional support
Feeling responsible for others at a young age
Chronic stress, conflict, or instability
Experiences where your needs, emotions, or safety weren’t fully protected
I believe trauma therapy begins with safety, compassion, honesty, and trust. My role, as your therapist, is to support you in healing at your own pace and reconnecting with a sense of calm and empowerment.
Trauma therapy offers a supportive, compassionate space to explore how past experiences may still be shaping your thoughts, emotions, relationships, or sense of safety today. Trauma can come from many sources, including childhood experiences, relational wounds, chronic stress, or single overwhelming events.
Together, we work gently and collaboratively to understand your nervous system responses, reduce emotional overwhelm, and soften patterns that may feel stuck or automatic. The goal is not to relive the past, but to help your body and mind feel safer in the present—so you can move forward with greater stability, self-trust, and peace over time.
Therapy focusing on trauma may be helpful if you experience anxiety, emotional numbness, hypervigilance, difficulty trusting others, or unhealthy coping behaviors. You don’t have to do this alone, and I am here to help and support you!

Virtual Trauma Therapy in Oregon
I provide virtual trauma therapy to adults across Oregon, offering a secure, confidential telehealth space where you can engage in meaningful work from the privacy of your own home.
Online trauma therapy in Oregon can be especially helpful if:
You have a demanding schedule
You feel more comfortable starting therapy in a familiar environment
You want access to specialized trauma and EMDR therapy without commuting
Virtual sessions follow the same structure and clinical standards as in-person therapy. We focus on understanding how trauma and chronic stress have shaped your nervous system, identifying the patterns keeping you stuck, and building regulation skills that support real change.
When appropriate, EMDR therapy can also be effectively adapted for virtual sessions. Online EMDR therapy allows us to process stuck memories and triggers while maintaining pacing, safety, and collaboration. Many clients are surprised at how powerful and grounded virtual EMDR therapy can feel.
If you’re searching for virtual trauma therapy in Oregon, online EMDR therapy in Oregon, or telehealth trauma counseling from a licensed therapist in Oregon, this may be a flexible and supportive option.
You don’t have to keep navigating survival mode alone — even from a distance.
Meet Meghan Hanes, LCSW
Hi, I’m Meghan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and EMDR-trained trauma therapist offering online therapy for adults across Oregon.
I work with people who feel stuck in trauma—replaying the past, reacting in ways that feel out of control, or relying on substances or other coping strategies just to get through the day. These responses make sense, but they can start to feel exhausting or limiting over time.
Using EMDR and trauma-informed talk therapy, I help clients process unresolved experiences, calm the nervous system, and develop healthier ways to cope—without judgment and at a pace that feels safe.
My practice is fully virtual and available to adults (18+) living in Oregon
