Safety first

If you are in immediate danger or may harm yourself, call 911 or 988 now. Navi is not a crisis or trauma-treatment service.

On a non-crisis call, share only what you are comfortable sharing. Navigators need enough to search (adult or child, therapy versus psychiatry, insurance, timing) — not a full clinical history.

What trauma therapy often looks like (general information)

When looking for trauma care you may see terms like trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) or EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing). These are approaches some clinicians use; seeing the words does not mean one is right for you.

Navi can look for therapists who list a trauma focus and are accepting clients. What approach fits is a clinical decision you make with your provider, not something Navi determines.
