Trauma and PTSD therapists in James Island, South Carolina SC
Tessa Trask | Full Circle Wellness
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I like to tell my clients that "trauma" is anything that's really, really scary or stressful that happens to us (or that we witness) in our lives. From child abuse and sexual assault, to military combat and natural disasters, trauma covers a whole range of life's experiences. Having a reaction to trauma is healthy-- it means you're having a normal reaction to an abnormal experience. But when the impacts of trauma linger and even grow, it's time to seek out help. Together, we can work to establish safety in your body and in your life, allowing you to release yourself from memories of the past. I'd love to help you take your life back.

The impact of a single, traumatic event or experiencing an environment that provides a chronic sense of danger can have a debilitating effect on how we view the world and how we function in it. Through therapy, we'll identify how your experiences of trauma are manifested in your body and thoughts, and work on improving upon your awareness of triggers and improving coping behaviors.
