Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

About

I’m Trudy McCloud, a licensed clinical therapist and the founder of The Space Between Therapy LLC, an entirely virtual practice dedicated to creating a safe, compassionate space for healing and growth. With nearly two decades as an active-duty military spouse, I deeply understand the unique experiences of veterans, active service members, and their families. My journey as the wife of a U.S. Army veteran and mother to two U.S. Air Force veterans inspires my heartfelt commitment to supporting those navigating life’s challenges.

I specialize in trauma-informed and holistic care, working with adults, couples, veterans, and families. As a Neuro-Linguistics Programming Master Practitioner (NLP-MP) and certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I help clients manage trauma, PTSD, and emotional challenges. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills, and mindfulness meditation to enhance emotional resilience and foster meaningful change.

Additionally, I am a certified life coach and Reiki practitioner, blending evidence-based techniques with holistic healing practices. My certification in military social work ensures culturally competent support for military communities. Together, we’ll explore your strengths and solutions to achieve your goals. Let’s embark on this journey to create the life you envision. I’m here to help.
