Trauma Therapy
What is Trauma?
Trauma is an emotional response to a distressing event or series of events that overwhelm an individual's ability to cope. It can result from experiences such as accidents, natural disasters, abuse, or loss. Trauma affects not only the mind but also the body and spirit, often leading to feelings of helplessness, fear, and disconnection.
