PTSD/Trauma
Rachel Bates
Registered Psychotherapist, M Phil - Counselling & Psychotherapy; M A Psychology
Emotional and psychological trauma can be the outcome of extraordinarily stressful events that involve a threat to life or safety. This can shatter one's sense of security, a feeling of being overwhelmed and isolated even if it does not involve physical harm. It is not the objective circumstances that determine whether an event is traumatic but the subjective emotional experience of it. Post-traumatic Stress is the stress that follows a traumatic event either during the first month after the event or even after a few months after the event. When the individual re-experiences or relives the traumatic event in the form of flashbacks, nightmares, repetitive and distressing images or sensations, sometimes involving bodily reactions such as sweating, pain, feeling sick or trembling, it can result with excessive guilt and/or shame. The psychological distress affects the physiological functions and this then becomes a vicious cycle.

I have much experience with PTSD which can impinge in our lives in not just the obvious ways. Many traumas can remain unprocessed within our subconscious. This can leave us with scary side effects .There are many useful coping strategies, normalizing information which can help.

Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) stems from prolonged, repeated trauma—typically occurring over months or years when escape was difficult or impossible, such as childhood neglect, emotional/physical abuse, domestic violence, or long-term exploitation.
Core Distinctions & Symptom Clusters
Emotional Dysregulation: Severe difficulty managing emotional responses, leading to intense mood swings, explosive anger, persistent sadness, or prolonged emotional numbing.
Negative Self-Concept: Deep-seated, pervasive feelings of worthlessness, shame, guilt, or feeling fundamentally broken or "different" from others.
Relational Difficulties: Chronic struggles with interpersonal relationships, including profound trust issues, fear of intimacy, or repeating unhealthy relational patterns.
Emotional Flashbacks: Unlike visual PTSD flashbacks, these involve sudden, intense regressions into the overwhelming feelings of childhood or past trauma (e.g., intense fear, smallness, hopelessness) without a clear visual memory.

Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Trauma and PTSD can impact so many areas of your life and how you view yourself. It can leave you feeling vulnerable and anxious, and can stop you living your life to the fullest. I use a technique called Rewind, which I have seen have fantastic results in overcoming PTSD. It is also used for other areas, such as phobias, and can be hugely powerful in removing a lot of the repeated symptoms that come from deep trauma.
