Trauma

Trauma refers to the emotional, psychological, or physical impact of a deeply distressing or disturbing experience. Unlike PTSD, trauma does not always result in a diagnosed disorder, but it can still have a profound effect on a person’s mental and emotional health.

People who have experienced trauma may notice heightened anxiety, low mood, difficulty concentrating, sleep disturbances, or challenges in forming relationships. Trauma can affect day-to-day functioning and may sometimes lead to coping strategies such as withdrawal or substance use.

At The Eaves, we have specifically trained trauma practitioners to provide a recognised range of supportive therapies to help people process and recover from trauma. This targeted therapy can assist individuals in understanding and managing the impact of traumatic experiences, helping individuals regain control over their lives.

FAQs

Trauma refers to the emotional, psychological, or physical response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event. It can result from experiences such as accidents, abuse, loss, or witnessing violence. Experiencing trauma itself is not a disorder but it can absolutely have a effect on a person’s wellbeing.

People who have experienced trauma might feel anxious, low, or emotionally numb. Other symptoms can include: difficulty sleeping or concentrating, experiencing flashbacks, or struggling with relationships. These effects can vary greatly from person to person.

Professional therapeutic support can help individuals process their experiences safely and begin the healing process. Our trauma trained practitioners can help clients understand and manage their reactions, build resilience, and hopefully regain a sense of control and stability in their lives.
