Therapy for Trauma
Is past hurt affecting your life today? Our past experiences, from family dynamics to past relationships, shape who we are and how we interact with the world. You might find yourself repeating unhealthy patterns, struggling to let people in, or being haunted by thoughts and reminders of past experiences. These issues can impact your confidence and daily routines.
Do I Really Have “Trauma”?
Trauma can manifest in various ways. It might come from significant events or from smaller, ongoing issues, such as:
• Narcissistic abuse: Belittling, controlling, or manipulating behavior from someone close to you.
• Gaslighting: Being made to feel “crazy” or invalidated.
• Emotional or verbal abuse: Repeated bullying, shaming, or name-calling.
Trauma affects everyone differently. If past relationships or experiences are causing anxiety, feelings of being out of control, or self-blame, it may be beneficial to explore these issues through counseling.
How Trauma Therapy Can Help:
• Process past experiences in a safe, supportive environment.
• Identify and modify patterns that hold you back.
• Improve communication and intimacy in relationships.
• Set healthy boundaries and communicate your needs confidently.
• Gain insight and self-compassion.
Trauma can make life feel stuck and your sense of wellbeing compromised. Our goal is to help you move beyond these past challenges, reconnect with yourself, and achieve a sense of wholeness.
