The Truth About Trauma

Maybe it was a single event that you can’t stop thinking about & absolutely took you out and now you’re left dealing with a combo of:

sadness

Flashbacks

hyper-vigilance (super aware of What’s happening around you at all times)

avoiding things that remind you of what happened

feeling detached or on edge

fear & anxiety

nightmares.

If these symptoms linger, it’s likely you’re experiencing Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). You’re absolutely NOT crazy for experiencing these symptoms - quite the opposite - your body is pretty badass for surviving the scary situation & doing what it needed to do to protect you during the stressful experience. 

Or maybe it wasn’t just one single event, but a slow build in childhood of witnessing or experiencing stressful stuff Like…

ongoing physical, sexual, or emotional abuse

living in a chaotic or unstable home environment

witnessing a parent in a volatile or abusive relationship

not getting your physical or emotional needs met by a parent or caregiver (physical and/or emotional neglect)

 

AND/OR being subjected to real BIG, chronic stressors in adulthood like…

economic disparity & forced poverty

racial inequality

divorce or the ending of a significant relationship

death of loved ones

working in healthcare, teaching, & the military

dealing with chronic illness & health challenges

Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) is the result of experiencing multiple & prolonged stressors that can contribute to a whole lot of really overwhelming symptoms.

Symptoms like low self-esteem & self-worth, emotional dysregulation (trouble controlling emotions), mood swings, impulsive behaviors, persistent depression & anxiety, and relationship problems infused with conflict, communication & trust issues, or vacillating clinginess or avoidance. 

That trauma & those symptoms are not your fault.

But they can be really hard to deal with, and often seep into every other area of your life. Trauma Therapy is the best way to safely reprocess those big trauma memories & soothe those really overwhelming trauma symptoms.

I use a combination of EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, Attachment Theory, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for your individualized trauma therapy & treatment .
