Trauma arises from diverse sources and affects individuals in various ways, significantly impacting their emotional and physical health. Trauma research gained traction following military experiences, evolving from 'shell shock' to PTSD. Not everyone exposed to trauma develops PTSD, yet the adverse effects on functioning and relationships are often profound. Initiating trauma treatment requires courage and involves complex feelings. Trauma-informed therapists provide personalized, strength-based care, establishing safety and support. Multiple trauma-focused therapy options, such as TF-CBT and EMDR, are available to cater to diverse needs and facilitate recovery.
Trauma can come from multiple sources and can present in numerous ways, but trauma consistently and significantly affects an individual's emotional and physical well-being.
Trauma first began to be more seriously studied following veterans coming home from war; it was initially termed 'shell shock' but later became known as PTSD.
Choosing to enter trauma treatment is an important yet scary and multifaceted journey for most people. The decision to start takes bravery, especially since discussing unpleasant topics is not easy.
There is a wide variety of trauma-focused therapy approaches now available, including TF-CBT, EMDR, IFS, SP, and many others.
