What is trauma?

Trauma is like an internal alarm system that goes off when we experience or perceive threats, whether physical or emotional. It’s normal to feel unsettled after stressful events, but when these feelings overwhelm your thoughts and disrupt your daily life, it can have a significant impact on your life. Trauma can affect anyone, regardless of the severity of the event, manifesting in various ways that prevent you from enjoying life fully.

In therapy, we use evidence-based trauma therapy to help our clients get the best care possible. Every treatment plan is different and may include
Trauma-Focused CBT or EMDR with a qualified trauma therapist. With the right support and strategies, you can soothe your internal alarm system and regain control over your life.

Types of trauma:

How trauma therapy & PTSD treatment can help

Trauma therapy can help:

Living through a traumatic experience can erode your sense of safety in the world around you. Trauma therapy offers a secure, supportive environment where you can begin to work through the fears and anxieties that have shaken your sense of security. Step by step, you’ll start to rebuild trust in yourself and your surroundings, helping you feel more grounded and in control.

Therapy helps you identify, understand, and process the complex emotions tied to your trauma. By exploring these feelings in a safe and guided setting, you can gain clarity and insight into how they affect your thoughts and behaviors. This emotional processing is crucial for reducing the intensity of traumatic memories and moving toward healing.

We often develop coping mechanisms to handle the effects of trauma, but these can sometimes be unhealthy or ineffective. Therapy teaches you effective ways to handle stress and manage triggers. You’ll get practical tools and techniques, like mindfulness and grounding exercises, that you can use to help you stay calm and reduce the impact of trauma on your life.
Trauma can put a significant strain on your relationships, creating barriers to trust and communication. Therapy offers a path to mend and improve these vital connections. You’ll learn better communication skills and work on building trust. Whether it’s with your partner, family, or friends, therapy can help you navigate the complexities of your relationships and create a more harmonious and fulfilling social life.
The ultimate goal of trauma therapy is to improve your overall quality of life. By addressing the root causes of your distress, therapy helps alleviate symptoms like anxiety, depression, and insomnia. As you heal, you can experience greater emotional balance, increased resilience, and a renewed sense of hope and purpose in life.

Questions about trauma therapy & PTSD treatment

Does PTSD ever go away?
When we’re talking about therapy for PTSD, we’re not talking about a “cure”, we are talking about teaching you how to manage your symptoms so your life improves. Sometimes, things start to feel worse before they start to feel better. That’s because you’re more present with your symptoms rather than avoiding them. But have hope! Evidence-based psychotherapies are scientifically proven to be effective in treating trauma and trauma-related diagnoses. We have seen hundreds of clients improve dramatically and regain control of their lives over the course of treatment.
In session, we will talk about each type of therapy I offer that’s relevant to your symptoms and difficulties, and then decide together which therapy makes the most sense based on what you hope to get out of therapy and what your learning style is. This is a collaborative and personalized process.
While C-PTSD, or Complex PTSD, is not a specific diagnosis in the DSM-5-TR, it does present a lot of challenges that we are happy to help you work through.
Yes! At Reflection Psychology, providers are fortunate enough to have completed professional training and consultation in evidence-based psychotherapies to treat trauma-related diagnoses and their comorbidities. We have extensive experience working with individuals with trauma, and this work is near and dear to our hearts.
If you experience anxiety but are unsure if it’s trauma-related or not, this is something we can evaluate in our first session to give you an accurate diagnosis. Not everyone who experiences trauma develops PTSD. You can have trauma without having a PTSD diagnosis. Many of our clients struggle with anxiety, for example, due to trauma, but do not have a formal diagnosis of PTSD.
