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.

Sometimes human beings are faced with truly horrible situations: threat, a fear of death, or witnessing such events. A normal response to these situations is severe psychological disturbance. However, such disturbance usually remits within weeks. Unfortunately for some people the psychological disturbance lasts months, years, and sometimes a lifetime. These disturbances include nightmares, intrusive thoughts, avoidance of situations that resemble the trauma, difficulty relating to other people, withdrawal from social life, and in extreme cases dissociation from reality. The two most common psychological conditions associated with this disturbed response are Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Adjustment Disorder. Psychologists have had more than a hundred years of experience in dealing with these difficulties. In the First World War it was described as shell shock. In the Second World War it was known as combat fatigue. We now know that it is not only those who engage in combat who suffer from these disorders. What we are increasingly understanding is that posttraumatic experiences are a disturbance of memory: the disturbance is that we simply cannot forget the horror we have experienced. Psychologists have developed clear treatment pathways to assist the victims of trauma.
