    Sauna Therapy FAQ's

    Sauna Therapy is a Dallas mental health practice specializing in trauma therapy, PTSD therapy, anxiety treatment and somatic psychotherapy. Depending on your needs and therapist, treatment may incorporate EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, experiential approaches, creative therapies and other trauma-informed methods.

    Look for a therapist whose training and clinical experience match the symptoms or experiences you want to address. For trauma and PTSD, this may include therapists trained in approaches such as EMDR, somatic therapy and trauma-focused psychotherapy.

    Sauna Therapy offers trauma-informed therapy in Dallas and helps prospective clients identify a therapist whose specialty, personality and therapeutic approach fit their needs.

    Sauna Therapy offers several approaches to trauma therapy, including EMDR therapy, somatic therapy, trauma-focused psychotherapy and experiential therapies. Some clients may also explore ketamine-assisted psychotherapy when clinically appropriate.

    Treatment is individualized because trauma can affect people differently. Therapy may focus on processing difficult experiences, reducing trauma-related symptoms, improving emotional regulation, strengthening relationships and developing a greater sense of safety and choice.

    Psychoneuroimmunology is the science of well-being centered around the stress response. Our holistic philosophy is tailored to educating and informing individuals about life long battles with chronic stress starting with adverse childhood events. 

    EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a psychotherapy approach used to address distress associated with traumatic and emotionally difficult experiences.

    During EMDR therapy, a trained therapist uses a structured treatment process that includes bilateral stimulation while helping the client work with memories, emotions, thoughts and physical responses connected to distressing experiences.

    Sauna Therapy offers EMDR therapy in Dallas as one of several approaches to trauma treatment.

    • Allow me to reintroduce myself. 🤍

I’m Paige Swanson, MA, LPC, NCC — psychotherapist, artist, lifelong dancer, and Founder of Sauna Therapy.

My work has always lived somewhere between science and art.

I’m fascinated by what happens when we move beyond traditional talk therapy and begin exploring the ways the brain and body actually experience emotion — through movement, creativity, relationships, sensation, and the nervous system.

That curiosity became Sauna Therapy.

Today, my work brings together trauma-informed psychotherapy, EMDR, somatic processing, art, dance and movement, mindfulness, and psychotherapeutic yoga to create a more embodied approach to mental health.

Outside of the therapy room, I’m also an exhibited artist. Much of my creative work explores the same questions I encounter clinically: How do we give form to experiences we don’t yet have words for? How does the body hold emotion? And how can creativity help us transform it?

I believe mental healthcare can be rigorous without feeling clinical, and that healing doesn’t have to happen exclusively from a therapy chair.

Sometimes we talk.

Sometimes we move.

Sometimes we make art.

And sometimes we create an entirely new way of understanding ourselves.

I’m Paige. Welcome — or welcome back — to my little corner of the mental health world.
    • Interiors and spaces we gravitate toward. 🫶🏻

At Sauna Therapy, we’re interested in the psychology of space—the relationship between our internal landscapes and the environments we inhabit.

Our design philosophy explores the ecological connection between architecture, nature, materiality, light, texture, and the nervous system. We believe spaces can do more than simply look beautiful; they can influence how we feel, how we regulate, and how safely we experience ourselves within an environment.

From organic forms and biophilic elements to sensory-rich materials and intentional spatial design, we’re continually exploring how our biological need for connection—to nature, to place, and to ourselves—can inform environments created for mental health and healing.

For us, wellness is not separate from the environment. The environment is part of the therapeutic experience.

    Interiors and spaces we gravitate toward. 🫶🏻

At Sauna Therapy, we’re interested in the psychology of space—the relationship between our internal landscapes and the environments we inhabit.

Our design philosophy explores the ecological connection between architecture, nature, materiality, light, texture, and the nervous system. We believe spaces can do more than simply look beautiful; they can influence how we feel, how we regulate, and how safely we experience ourselves within an environment.

From organic forms and biophilic elements to sensory-rich materials and intentional spatial design, we’re continually exploring how our biological need for connection—to nature, to place, and to ourselves—can inform environments created for mental health and healing.

For us, wellness is not separate from the environment. The environment is part of the therapeutic experience.
