Mario Uosis-Martin
Counsellor/Therapist, PGDip Advanced Psychotherapy
Trauma has many forms and faces. When we talk about emotional, and psychological trauma it means we are talking about going through very distressing, frightening or very stressful events. We might find ourselves in situations that were traumatic or we were affected by our experiences of such events. Traumatic events can happen at any time of our lives, from birth to old age; it can cause long-lasting, sometimes lifetime lasting harmful effects. We all are individuals; therefore, everyone has a different reaction to trauma; so, you might notice the effects of it quickly, or a long time (sometimes even decades) afterwards.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychological and physiological condition that is caused by a very frightening or distressing event. There is an old myth that only war veterans can develop PTSD, which is very wrong. For example, a cancer diagnosis, car accident, sexual or physical violence and many other experiences can lead to PTSD. This does not, however, mean that everyone who experiences such life experiences will develop PTSD. People suffering from PTSD often re-live the traumatic event through flashbacks and nightmares. You might experience a lack of concentration or have problems sleeping, perhaps feeling isolated and detached. These symptoms are often persistent and can severally impact your everyday life. Therapy can provide you with a safe space where you will be able to process the traumatic event and your own individual reaction.

Donna Mitchell
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
I don't have one approach to dealing with trauma. As everyone's trauma is unique, so is the way that we work with it together. Sometimes this involves going back in our minds and unpacking what happened while bringing a sense of safety to the trauma. Sometimes we don't go back to the trauma at all, and instead work with the unhelpful narrative that the trauma may have left you believing. I gently guide you to express your experience in whatever way you need to, so that you can start to feel safer and calmer within your life.
