Life after Trauma can Feel Overwhelming
Traumatic experiences fundamentally disrupt a person’s sense of well-being. Trauma can cause symptoms of depression, anxiety, dissociative episodes, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. You may be unable to stop your mind from replaying painful memories associated with the trauma, impairing your work, intimate relationships, social life, even your sleep. You may find that you struggle to trust others or even yourself in situation which used to bring you joy.
Whether you’ve survived a series of incidents or a singular traumatic event, trauma therapy can provide a safe, personalized space to rebuild your life one step at a time.

For those who have experienced trauma and may be experiencing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (cPTSD), life can feel like an uphill battle. Left untreated, the effects of trauma can be extensive and long-lasting.
Here are just a few of the symptoms indicative of trauma:
Nightmares and sleep-disturbances
Feeling distant from those who love you
Memory Loss
Anger
Reduced interest in things you used to enjoy
Difficulty concentrating
Risky behaviors
