🌱 Big emotions in little bodies can be hard to hold alone.
At Gateway, we help children and teens feel safe, seen, and supported—especially when life feels overwhelming.

Whether it’s anxiety, outbursts, emotional shutdown, school struggles, or family changes, our therapists are trained to meet young people where they are. Through play, creativity, talk, and trust-building, we create space for healing and growth.

✨ We support kids and teens with:

Anxiety, depression, and overwhelm

Trauma or grief

Peer conflict and school issues

Family transitions (divorce, moves, etc.)

Identity exploration and emotional regulation

We don’t just treat symptoms—we help young people build resilience, self-understanding, and inner safety that lasts.

🧠 Sometimes trauma doesn’t show up as memories.
It shows up as:

Chronic tension in your shoulders

That pit in your stomach

Feeling “on edge” for no clear reason

Emotional numbness or disconnection

Exhaustion that rest doesn’t fix

This is because trauma isn’t just a story in your mind—it’s an experience stored in your nervous system. And until your body feels safe, your healing can stay stuck.

That’s why at Gateway, we offer more than just talk therapy.
Our integrative services—like trauma-informed massage, therapeutic yoga, and body-based therapy—help release what your body has been holding.

✨ Healing happens when we include all of you—mind, body, and nervous system.

If your symptoms don’t make sense on the surface, your body might be trying to tell the story.

At Gateway, our massage therapy is trauma-informed and deeply supportive. We focus on creating a safe space where your body can finally exhale.

Massage therapy with Peter Nguyen, LMT, is designed for exactly that. Trauma-informed, deeply intentional, and rooted in whole-body wellness, each session invites your nervous system to finally exhale.

✨ Gently release stored tension
✨ Restore your body’s sense of safety
✨ Support emotional regulation through therapeutic touch

This is massage as healing—not luxury. A soft place to land after holding it together for far too long.

🌿 Your body remembers what your mind tries to forget.
Massage therapy offers more than physical relief—it creates space for emotional healing.

At Gateway, our therapeutic massage services are designed to support your full well-being, especially if you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, or chronic stress.

Here’s what massage can offer you:
✨ Stress relief – Gentle touch can calm the nervous system and lift emotional weight
✨ Pain relief – Soothing muscles also soothes the mind
✨ Better sleep – Deeper rest supports emotional regulation
✨ Trauma support – Because trauma lives in the body, not just the mind

Massage therapy can be a powerful complement to talk therapy. When your body feels safe, healing goes deeper.

🌀 Symptom Spotlight: Emotional Shutdown

Sometimes it’s not rage or panic.
Sometimes trauma sounds like:
🧊 “I don’t care.”
🧊 “I just feel numb.”
🧊 “I can’t even explain what I’m feeling.”

Emotional shutdown is a protective response. When your nervous system senses too much overwhelm, it might go into freeze mode—shutting things down just to get through.

You might notice:

Numbness or disconnection from feelings

Avoiding conversations or decisions

Feeling like you're "on autopilot"

Struggling to cry, even when you're deeply sad

Pulling away from people or isolating

If this sounds familiar, you’re not broken. You’re adapting. But you don’t have to stay in survival mode forever.

✨ At Gateway, our trauma-informed therapists help you safely reconnect with your emotions, your body, and your voice—at your own pace. Healing starts with being seen.
