At Through Therapy, we understand that healing from trauma starts with safety.

Whether you're navigating complex PTSD (cPTSD), past emotional neglect, or chronic burnout, we help you rebuild your relationship with trust in others and within yourself.
How Trauma Affects Attachment and Connection
Many adults struggling with trauma carry invisible wounds from early relationships. Emotional unavailability, neglect, or betrayal in formative years can disrupt your sense of safety in the world. These patterns can show up as:
Difficulty trusting others
Fear of closeness or fear of abandonment
Emotional numbing or reactions that are incongruent with what is happening
Chronic anxiety or numbness in relationships
Trauma can create a lasting impact on one’s ability to feel secure, connected, and emotionally understood.
Why Attachment-Based Therapy Can Help
Attachment-based trauma therapy addresses the core wounds that drive emotional disconnection. At Through Therapy, Courtney Vogt, LCSW, draws on Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) which is a relational, emotion-focused approach grounded in neuroscience and attachment theory. In this work, the therapist becomes more than an observer; they serve as a compassionate co-regulator, offering a safe space to process pain in real time, while helping you feel deeply seen, emotionally held, and genuinely supported.
This approach offers corrective emotional experiences that help:
Rewire attachment patterns
Build self-trust and emotional regulation
Heal shame and internalized beliefs
Create space for vulnerability and growth
Many of our clients appear "fine" on the outside. They’re high-achieving, thoughtful, and capable yet inside, they feel anxious, disconnected, or like something is always "off."
