TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
PTSD requires lots of patience as the individual in treatment learns to interact with the world again. Traumatic experiences shut down everything in the person's mind/body, and in their social interactions, and create a lot of isolation. To counter all this, I recommend a unique program for each patient that includes talking at least twice a week, micro-stimulation to develop new pathways in the brain, supplements to heal the brain, music therapy (see Steven Halpern), sleep therapy, and the creation of "flow experiences" to strengthen the person's sense of self. Trauma is not easy to turn around, But, over a consistent period of time, expressing one's emotions and following a set routine (including the above), will always lead to healing.

Registered Psychotherapist, Gestalt Therapist , M.B.A.
Trauma comes in many varieties. In classical PTSD we focus on Abuse, and even then, on severe and dramatic episodes of abuse. A more nuanced and sophisticated approach looks also at "small t" trauma with the same level of respect and seriousness. Neglect is a part of this. Abandonment The history of failed treatments for Trauma is epic. I believe that Shame and Trauma are at the core of psychological distress.
