When you experience a traumatic event, you may have an immediate or delayed response with mental, emotional, and physical symptoms. Your symptoms may subside as time passes or you may have lasting psychological issues stemming from your trauma.
Post-traumatic stress disorder is one type of mental health condition that directly follows trauma. However, you may also develop other forms of anxiety, depression, or other mental health conditions.
Trauma Therapy
At ClearPath Health, we understand the profound impact trauma can have on every aspect of your life. Whether you’ve experienced a single traumatic event or ongoing distress, it’s essential to know that healing is possible. Our trauma treatment programs are designed to help you regain control, find peace, and restore balance.
Understanding Trauma
Trauma is defined as a deeply distressing or disturbing experience. Trauma comes in many forms. It could be the result of a car accident, abuse, a natural disaster, grief, or any event that overwhelms your ability to cope. For some, trauma leads to symptoms such as anxiety, depression, nightmares, flashbacks, and feelings of isolation. If you have lived through or witnessed something that was horrifying, put your life at risk, or made you feel negatively about yourself, you should acknowledge your feelings and ask for help without shame.
Symptoms of trauma may include:
Intrusive memories or flashbacks
Avoidance of situations or places that trigger painful memories
Difficulty concentrating or sleeping
Hypervigilance or a constant sense of danger
Feelings of guilt, shame, or hopelessness
Emotional numbness or disconnection from others
