OVERCOMING TRAUMA WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL THERAPY
Trauma is an emotional or psychological response to an event—or series of events—that are extremely negative or distressing and can leave a lasting impact on the individual.
These events may include, but are not limited to: accidents, natural disasters, physical or sexual abuse, war experiences, acts of terrorism, the loss of a loved one, or any situation perceived by the person as threatening to their life, safety, or well-being.
Some people may experience long-term effects such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and other mental health difficulties.
Common trauma symptoms include intrusive and distressing memories of the event, nightmares, avoidance of reminders, mood changes, irritability, sleep difficulties, and a constant feeling of being “on guard.”

Treatment for trauma often involves specialized psychological therapies, such as:
-
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
