ABOUT TRAUMA-INFORMED THERAPY

Trauma can affect your daily life and relationships. You might have experienced something traumatic yesterday or decades ago. It’s common to not know how to start to heal or process the events. You might have felt the “flight, fight or freeze” response and now you don’t know how to go back to normal life.

Trauma therapy located in Texas can be valuable to help you overcome the pain and distress you might be feeling. You might have experienced a traumatic event that seemed small at the time and now you can't seem to function. Trauma might have occurred because of a car accident, an abusive relationship or family issues.
Sometimes trauma can occur in the form of unwanted sexual behavior, rape or non-consensual contact.
Whether you experienced the traumatic event as a child or an adult, therapy can help. Treatment options include Cognitive behavior therapy, EMDR therapy, Acceptance and Compassion therapy (ACT), somatic therapy or another evidence-based treatment. This means there is empirical evidence to treat the trauma.

 

You might have have experienced:

  • Flashbacks,
  • Low self esteem
  • Insomnia
  • Low confidence or low self esteem
  • Painful emotions
  • Relationship distress
  • Constant reliving of the event

 

Trauma therapy can help ease your symptoms and allow you will learn new skills and techniques to cope with the experience. When you have experienced a traumatic event or something that was unsettling, you may not be able to process information the same way you did in the past. You might then feel triggered more often and thus not be able to live your life as you desire.

 

Remembering the event can often feel as bad as the first time you experienced it, and new experiences can trigger a similar distressing reaction. Because of this, traumatic experiences can remain unresolved and cause ongoing disruptions in various aspects of your life, including how you feel about yourself, how you see the world and how you relate to others.

 

EMDR therapy can also help reduce the effects of your painful memories. EMDR therapy aims to change our negative relationships with painful memories.

 

EMDR stands for: Eye, Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing.
