Hatch provides a women-only, trauma-informed environment where clients can process pain safely and rebuild self-trust through compassionate, personalized treatment.
Treatment integrates CBT, EMDR, individual and group therapy, family sessions, and creative modalities like mindfulness and art therapy for full-spectrum healing.
Clients receive coordinated care including medication management, psychoeducation, and aftercare planning to sustain progress beyond treatment.
The all-female community fosters emotional safety, trust, and peer support—helping women transform trauma into resilience and renewed purpose.
Trauma changes everything—how you see yourself, how you connect with others, even how safe you feel in your own body. For women, those wounds often run deep and silent, buried beneath years of survival, caretaking, or high-functioning perfectionism. At Hatch Behavioral Health, we understand that healing from trauma requires more than clinical expertise—it requires safety, belonging, and compassion.
Hatch is a women’s mental health treatment center in Anaheim, CA that specializes in trauma recovery through a deeply personalized, trauma-informed approach. We create a space where women can process their pain without fear of judgment and begin to rebuild their lives with strength and purpose.
Sometimes Outpatient Alone is Not Enough
If you have been attending individual therapy sessions once a week for trauma and feel like you are not getting anywhere, you might be a great candidate for a more intensive program.
At Hatch, we offer IOP which is three hours of therapy multiple times a week. This applied for 30-60 days can be extremely helpful to launch into greater healing.
A Safe, Women-Only Environment for True Healing
For many women, even the idea of therapy can feel overwhelming. Traditional co-ed treatment environments can unintentionally reinforce the very fears or insecurities that trauma has left behind. At Hatch, we’ve created something different—a place where women feel seen, supported, and understood.
Our women-only setting allows for emotional openness and shared understanding. Here, you’ll be surrounded by women who “get it”—whether you’re a survivor of abuse, a mother in recovery, or a young professional struggling under pressure.
Every aspect of our environment—from the design of our therapy rooms to the structure of our outpatient programs—is built around safety, respect, and empowerment.
Benefits of our women-centered trauma treatment include:
- Increased emotional safety and trust
- Group therapy that fosters deep peer connection
- Therapists trained in gender-specific trauma recovery
- Treatment plans that reflect your lived experiences and goals
- A focus on emotional regulation, self-compassion, and empowerment
- At Hatch, healing happens not just to you, but with you.
Understanding Trauma in Women
Trauma can take many forms. It’s not just about catastrophic events—it’s about the ongoing pain that shapes how you think and feel long after the moment has passed.
Women often experience trauma in the context of relationships, caregiving, or social pressures. These experiences may include:
- Physical, sexual, or emotional abuse
- Domestic violence or assault
- Neglect, abandonment, or loss
- Medical trauma or reproductive trauma
- Chronic stress, burnout, or emotional invalidation
- The lingering effects of substance abuse or living with an addicted partner
Even when trauma feels “in the past,” its echoes can appear as flashbacks, anxiety, emotional numbness, or self-criticism. You may feel detached from your body or constantly on alert, waiting for something to go wrong. Trauma therapy at Hatch helps you learn that your reactions make sense—and that they can change.
How We Treat Trauma at Hatch
Our approach to trauma therapy blends evidence-based interventions with holistic and relational care. We don’t just treat symptoms; we help you rediscover safety, connection, and self-trust.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps women identify how trauma has shaped their thoughts and beliefs—especially those rooted in shame, guilt, or self-blame. By reframing these patterns, clients gain insight into how their past influences their present and learn coping skills to manage triggers, anxiety, and depression. CBT is especially effective for women dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), ADHD, or co-occurring substance use issues.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a cornerstone of trauma treatment at Hatch. Using guided eye movements or tactile stimulation, EMDR helps the brain safely process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR doesn’t require clients to relive their trauma in detail. Instead, it gently rewires how those memories are stored, allowing for emotional relief and renewed clarity. Many of our clients describe EMDR as life-changing—especially survivors of abuse or women who’ve spent years avoiding painful memories.
Trauma-Informed Individual Therapy
Each woman’s story is unique, which is why our individual therapy sessions focus on understanding your personal history and emotional landscape. With the support of licensed LMFTs, LCSWs, and psychiatrists, you’ll explore your trauma at a pace that feels safe. Your therapist will help you connect body awareness with emotional understanding, developing coping mechanisms for distress, triggers, and relationship patterns that may have formed around your trauma.
Group Therapy and Peer Connection
Healing doesn’t happen in isolation. Our small, all-female group therapy sessions offer a supportive community where women can share their experiences, build connection, and witness each other’s progress. Groups focus on emotional regulation, communication, and resilience—providing a space where vulnerability feels safe and empowerment becomes contagious.
Family Therapy
Trauma often affects relationships with loved ones. Family therapy helps rebuild trust, improve communication, and create a supportive environment for your continued recovery. Whether you’re reconnecting with parents, partners, or children, our clinicians help families understand trauma’s impact and participate in healing together.
Creative and Holistic Modalities
Not every woman processes trauma the same way. That’s why Hatch offers complementary approaches such as art therapy, mindfulness, and body-based grounding practices. These methods allow emotional release through creativity, movement, and connection to the body—key steps in restoring mind-body balance.
A Holistic, Integrated Approach
Healing from trauma requires addressing more than just mental health—it involves the whole person. Our clinicians take an integrative approach that supports emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.
Every woman at Hatch has access to:
- Medication management through licensed providers when appropriate
- Psychoeducation on how trauma affects the nervous system
- Health care coordination with your existing medical professionals
- Nutritional and lifestyle support to promote balance and energy
- Ongoing aftercare planning to ensure stability beyond treatment
- Our trauma-focused model recognizes that recovery is not linear. Some days will be hard—but you’ll never face them alone.
Why Specialized Care for Women Matters
Women experience trauma differently than men. Social expectations, hormonal changes, motherhood, and gender-based violence can all influence how trauma develops and how healing unfolds.
At Hatch Behavioral Health, our gender-specific model provides:
- Trauma-informed therapy that accounts for women’s life experiences
- Clinical support for co-occurring issues like eating disorders, substance use, or depression
- Emotional safety through smaller groups and individualized attention
- Empowerment-focused interventions that rebuild confidence and self-worth
When women are given the space to process trauma in an environment designed specifically for them, transformation happens faster—and feels more sustainable.
