Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a traumatic, scary or dangerous event. PTSD can be caused by either witnessing or experiencing the trauma. Events that sometimes trigger PTSD include everything from sexual assault, war, and violence, to car accidents or other incidents that could cause loss of life. It is not at all uncommon for people who go through something traumatic to have temporary difficulty coping and acute symptoms, but with time, they usually get better. However, if the symptoms last longer than a month, get worse rather than better and affect your ability to function, you may be suffering from PTSD. Symptoms of PTSD may include severe anxiety, anger, nightmares, trouble sleeping, flashbacks to the event, frightening thoughts, avoidance of situations or places, feeling on edge and/or being easily startled. If you think you may be experiencing PTSD, reach out to one of TherapyDen’s specialists today to get help.

Trauma can be very difficult and complex. My approach with trauma is about focusing on the present moment and working our way back if needed. Each person is different and the more insight you have into how sights, sounds, smells, and/ or thoughts contribute to your specific triggers, the more empowering it can be.

Trauma doesn't just stem from a terrible car accident or a natural disaster. It can also be the result of racism, sexism, homophobia, or transphobia. Oftentimes the most damaging forms of trauma can stem from a harmful relationship, one where you often felt rejected or made to feel less-than. Sometimes we carry the wounds of relational trauma from childhood long into our adult lives. I have a certificate in trauma from Boston College and am IFS Level 1 trained.
