Trauma
I am certified as Trauma Informed Therapist. I have worked with many trauma victims (children, teens, and adults) that have recover from trauma.
Trauma is an event that happens outside our understanding on how the world is supposed to work. A trauma response is when our ability to cope with what happened and its affecting other areas in your life (school, job, relationships etc.)
Trauma can be:
- An accident, an injury, domestic violence, sexual abuse, loss of a love one and more
- We may experience feelings surrounding whatever happened. Feelings may never completely go away
- We can experience Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). A failure to recover from a traumatic event.
Trauma can cause:
- Arousal- You find yourself avoiding things that trigger you.
- Intrusion – Thoughts, images, memories, related to the trauma. The experience starts to shove itself up when you least expect.
- Negative Thoughts and Feelings – You just don’t feel good or feel ok.
Thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are driven by our trauma response and can be difficult things to understand.
