What is Trauma?

Trauma can stem from multiple types of stressors including sexual, physical, emotional, financial, and verbal abuse. It can begin as early as childhood and as late as someone aged 65 and older without the person even being aware depending on the severity of trauma. Trauma can come in the form of acute or chronic stressors, think of a car crash for acute and prolonged child neglect as chronic. While some trauma can be easily identified, it often can hide suppressed in our relationships, environment, and behaviors silently affecting our daily functioning until it becomes too much to handle alone. The following are just a few of the many common disorders that can result from trauam:

  • PTSD,

Our Compassionate Approach to Trauma Healing

Treatment for trauma can vary as needed per individual, typically a trauma informed or trauma trained therapist will utilize a variety of tools to help process trauma. CBT, DBT, and ACT skills can help challenge and reframe thoughts, feelings, and behaviors associated with trauma. Gestalt style therapy, mindfulness techniques, motivational interviewing and exposure are also used in order to increase self worth and emotional regulation in order to process trauma.

These approaches are effective due to them targeting a fixed mindset and attempting to reframe into a growth mindset while implementing holistic and compassionate techniques. (Norling et al., 2025)

What to Expect from Trauma Therapy

Typically, someone seeking trauma therapy consistently will report improved emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills. Dissociation, flash backs, and other stressors can reduce in severity and healthier coping skills can replace unhelpful behaviors previously engaged in. Improved sleep, memory recall, focus, confidence, and communication skills can also be expected.
