Emotional and psychological trauma is the result of an extraordinarily stressful event. Trauma damages the psyche and produces overwhelming stress to the point where your ability to cope with the intense emotions leaves you confused and upset. Your sense of security may be shattered, making you feel helpless in a perceived dangerous world.
Some of these experiences revolve around my own personal history and repression with trauma and loss. Through establishing a trusting and empathetic bond with the right counsellor in a safe environment, I was able to face and work through painful memories and feelings. I was able to heal and grow in time. Now I want to help others!
