Trauma is an experience that affects many people, yet it is often misunderstood. The causes of trauma can vary from person to person, leading many individuals to overlook their own experiences as trauma. Lasting trauma can stem from various sources, such as war, violence, childhood abuse, grief or loss, and medical events or emergencies. Remarkably, about 70% of adults in the United States have encountered trauma at some point in their lives.

Trauma Counseling: Help for Your Healing Journey

Trauma arises when an event overwhelms the nervous system's capacity to cope. Trauma is our emotional response to a deeply disturbing event or circumstances that negatively impact our daily lives and overall well-being. It can disrupt our sense of control, connection, and meaning. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can affect anyone, regardless of age, and is often associated with direct exposure to traumatic events. Symptoms typically arise within three months of experiencing or being exposed to such events. PTSD is an acute stress disorder that can have lasting effects on mental health.
