Trauma & PTSD Counseling
An overwhelming majority of adults have experienced at least one traumatic event in their lives. If left unaddressed, trauma can manifest itself in any number of ways.
Common Symptoms of PTSD
Unwanted upsetting memories
Nightmares and flashbacks
Emotional distress or numbing
Feelings of guilt and/or shame
Negative thoughts about oneself
Decreased interest in activities
Feeling isolated
Chronic avoidance of situations that elicit trauma memories
Difficulty experiencing positive emotions
Trouble sleeping
Anger, anxiety, depression, and/or hopelessness
The most common diagnosis is "Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder," but even those who do not meet full criteria may still be struggling. We understand the profound and lasting impact of trauma, and no one should suffer through it alone. One of the most painful consequences of trauma is the feeling of disconnection from others.
