WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IF YOU ARE AFFECTED BY A TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE?
To help restore the normal experiencing of life again
is the ultimate goal of trauma therapy and we gently guide you to the light at the end of this tunnel
We have learned from neuroscience, that trauma changes the structure of the brain This means we experience things differently after the traumatic event, our feeling, thinking , perceptions, and actions change . Even our body posture, the way we move and how we feel bodily sensations changes
Traumatic life events cause long and difficult suffering.
Traumatic experiences cause stressful lives, may lead to drug/alcohol use or addiction, to legal problems, to physical health issues, to unhealthy relationships, even to suicide or to violence against others .
Experiencing Trauma and suffering from PTSD is a personal tragedy and given the many people affected by traumatic stress, it is a very real and costly public health issue.
Trauma is difficult to treat, the wrong approach to help a person with a traumatic stress injury can make things way worse. The trauma stays activated in mind and body, people’s lives are” a mess”, they eventually loose hope that things might ever get better for them. Talking about what happened over and again, means reliving what happened , the person stays trapped in the trauma. Some people use anti depressants or other medications, just to find out they get physical side effects and they still live with the root of the problem. There is no “pill” alone for healing trauma, (at least not yet).
To reverse and relief the negative impact trauma has on someone’s life , a person should seek the support of a professional, who is especially trained in the treatment of trauma and has the credentials and the schooling to prove this .
