Counseling for

PTSD and Complex Trauma

PTSD and Complex Trauma

PTSD and Complex Trauma

There are many life experiences that can be traumatic, and these can affect our sense of self and feelings about life. Resolving traumas can help to decrease or eliminate the anxiety, fear, shame, guilt, panic attacks, depression, loneliness, and hopelessness that may follow a trauma, helping us to remember who we are and what life used to be like.

Anxiety and Panic

PTSD and Complex Trauma

Do you find too much of your time each day is spent being worried, fearful, panicky, or not able to sleep because your mind races? Resolving panic and anxiety will free up so much energy that you can then spend on having fun and enjoying life.

Depression

PTSD and Complex Trauma

Depression

Depression comes from a multitude of issues in our life:  being in a bad relationship, unresolved trauma, difficulties with loved ones, or many other causes. A supportive counselor will be by your side as you make changes in the areas of your life you are not happy with. As the changes you will notice improvements in motivation, productivity, sleep, appetite, and how you feel about yourself. You can once again find joy and meaning in your life. 


Attachment

Depression

We all develop an attachment style in childhood, and if we had parents who could not be consistently loving,  emotionally-present caregivers, be it from mental illness, addiction, physical absence, their own insecure attachment, etc., they may not have provided the environment we needed to develop a secure attachment. Fortunately we can earn Secure Attachment. 

Unmet Emotional Needs

As children, we are often unaware of "the invisible things:"  things that we didn't know we needed and never got. Things like emotional presence, consistency, unconditional support. This lack of having our emotional needs met can alter our development of self and impact how we see ourselves, others, and the world. Resolving these unmet needs can improve our ability to function as an adult and within our adult relationships.



Relationship Issues

Relationships are an important part of everyone's life. Counseling can be helpful to work on troublesome relationships to change them from a repeating source of anguish to a source of great joy, adding to our life satisfaction.
