Understanding Trauma

Trauma occurs when an individual experiences a distressing event or series of events that overwhelm their ability to cope. These events can include natural disasters, childhood trauma, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, or other difficult life experiences. Traumatic experiences may also stem from complex trauma, where repeated exposure to distressing events deeply impacts emotional and psychological well-being. The effects of trauma often manifest as trauma symptoms, which may include:

Overwhelming emotions, such as fear, sadness, or anger
Persistent anxiety disorders and feelings of isolation
Negative thought patterns influenced by traumatic memories
Physical symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, or digestive issues
Impaired cognitive functioning affecting decision-making and concentration
Difficulty in interpersonal relationships due to unresolved trauma

Trauma can lead to significant mental health challenges, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), acute stress disorder, depressive disorders, and substance use disorders. It may also affect brain function and emotional regulation, making it essential to seek professional therapy to navigate the healing process effectively.

Types Of Trauma We Treat

We treat acute trauma, childhood trauma, and complex trauma. Complex cases often include long exposure to harm or control. These patterns can affect trust and safety.
We also address related issues like anxiety, depression, and substance use. The plan fits your history, strengths, and goals.
