Traumatic experiences can linger in the body and mind long after the event, but healing does not have to mean reliving every detail. Progressive Counting is a gentle, evidence based trauma therapy that helps you process difficult memories in a structured, contained way. Through brief mental “movies” of the memory while your therapist counts aloud, emotional intensity gradually decreases and the memory becomes less distressing over time.
Clients often appreciate that they do not have to talk through every detail of what happened. Instead, the focus is on safe visualization, grounding, and helping your nervous system settle so you can move forward feeling lighter and more in control.
If you are struggling with past experiences and are curious whether Progressive Counting could be a good fit, we would be honored to support you. Contact our office to ask questions or schedule a session with Heather Burgio, LMSW, and take the next step toward healing.
