Trauma changes us; but it doesn’t have to define who we are, and how we choose to move forward with our lives and heal.
The key to healing from trauma is to acknowledge that is a whole body experience; our central nervous system has become hyper-vigilant, dysregulated and reactive.
Survivors who have experienced trauma express that they struggle with a combination of feeling numb, dissociated, disoriented, scared, out of control, intrusive thoughts, suicidal and experience high levels of panic, anxiety and depression.
No one deserves to suffer alone like that, and reaching out for help will be the biggest hurdle; but trust me, it gets easier from there.
In order for us to heal we need to re establish a felt sense of safety and learn healthier forms of control; to bring our mind, body and emotions back into a balanced, calm and regulated state, so we can finally live our best lives with a sense of peace.
Trauma Therapy can be delivered both in-person or online; on a weekly or fortnightly basis.
