Healing Together
Experiencing trauma can often make you feel isolated and disconnected from others. The unspoken nature of trauma can amplify feelings of loneliness, leaving you to navigate your pain alone. At the Trauma Resilience and Education Center of Greater Washington, D.C. (TREC DC), we believe in the power of community and shared experiences as essential components of healing.
We are proud to offer specialized group therapy sessions tailored to meet the diverse needs of our community. Please contact us for upcoming group therapy options available at TREC DC:
