About

Dr. Tonya Griffith specializes in a Trauma-informed approach to treating adolescents, adults, and couples with the understanding that trauma occurs when dangerous traumatic events overwhelm a person's ability to cope. Some examples include abuse or neglect, violence, witnessing or experiencing sexual abuse, serious accidents, illness, or the loss of a loved one. Traumatic experiences have been linked to poor health outcomes and reduced quality of life. A trauma-informed approach is used when appropriate to help individuals and families overcome the negative effects of trauma experienced in their lives.
