TRAUMA & PTSD - AUBURN AND OPELIKA, ALABAMA & FLORIDA
What happened then is still showing up now. It doesn’t have to.
Trauma can shape how you feel, react and connect long after the event is over. Healing it is the heart of my work, and there is a real path to relief.
Does this sound familiar?
The effects of trauma can last long after it happens, often in ways you wouldn’t connect to it at first.
Emotions that feel hard to manage or come on fast
Reacting to today through the lens of what happened before
Trouble remembering or concentrating
Strain in your relationships or at work
Moments when the past feels like it’s happening now
Leaning on substances or habits just to cope
WHAT COUNTS AS TRAUMA
It doesn’t have to be catastrophic to count.
Trauma is any distressing or life-threatening experience. It can come from combat, assault, abuse or a car accident. It can also come from neglect, bullying, betrayal or growing up around constant conflict.
Trauma changes how the brain handles emotions, memories and stress, so the present gets read through the past. Not all trauma leads to PTSD, and PTSD doesn’t require one huge event. Together we’ll sort out what you’ve been through and what’s really driving how you feel.
