Trauma
Process Unresolved Trauma And Live A Happier Life
Whilst anxiety is generally concerned with the future, trauma is generally concerned with the past.
When we experience traumatic events such as rape, abuse or being involved in an event which threatened our lives or our physically integrity, we can find it difficult to be in the moment and live our lives now.like we did before.
Intense fear, feelings of helplessness an unexpected intrusive thoughts that can be extreme and painful are common in those who have experienced trauma.
When remembering the traumatic event we may re-experience the same painful and terrifying feelings that we experienced when the event originally occurred!this is called re-traumatisation.
I work with clients to help them understand why they responded to the trauma in the way they did and to address how the consequences of the trauma are affected them now.
I also provide the client with a safe space to express their emotions and help them to be in the now rather than in the past.
Some clients find it useful to gain an understanding of how the brain and body responds to trauma.
As someone who has provided counselling to various individuals addressing trauma, I am knowledgeable, skilled and experienced in working with these issues.
Some people don't like to think of themselves as having counselling, and that's OK.It can sometimes be useful to view it simply as two people working together, talking things through and trying to figure things out.
