Help for Trauma
Have you been in or seen an accident?
Have you had a surgery or medical procedure?
Have you witnessed or been a victim of violence?
Did you suffer physical, sexual or emotional abuse as a child or adult?
Do you have PTSD, flashbacks, dissociation or other forms of distress?
If you answered yes to any of these questions or have experienced any other trauma and feel like you have a hard time dealing with life, these things may be related.
When we perceive that we are in danger and that there is nothing we can do, the result is trauma. There are many, many things that happen to us that can lead to trauma and sometimes PTSD or post traumatic stress disorder.
Trauma may leave a person feeling disconnected from life or people, having flashbacks, having anxiety or panic attacks, startling easily, repeatedly ending up in similar unsafe situations, feeling stuck or frozen, having intrusive thoughts or memories or feeling numb or hypersensitive. Any of these symptoms can then lead to difficulty in relationships or at work and a general sense of helplessness.
When you and I work together, we will pay attention to what is happening in the present moment and expand your ability to allow sensations and emotions without becoming overwhelmed. We will help you re-negotiate old mental, physical and emotional patterns so you begin to experience things in a new way.
My area of specialization is childhood trauma, which includes a wide range of experiences. Click here to find out more.
