While PTSD is considered a disordered way of coping with trauma, what if your body is doing what they need to keep you safe? Trauma is always overwhelming and complex, even if it has occurred from an isolated event. It takes time and gentleness and patience to unravel its effects.

Bessel van der Kolk defines trauma as: any experience that overwhelms your ability to cope. Certainly life-threatening situations, like a car accident or serving in combat, count. So does consistently feeling unsafe at home because one of your parents would get violent sometimes, or worrying about where your next meal might come from. When you're faced with situations that overwhelm you, your psyche will do whatever it can to keep you alive, typically splitting itself apart in order to protect your sanity. Trouble is, after that initial overwhelm is over, you need to go back and repair that split. Otherwise, that scary, painful, overwhelming situation becomes something that haunts you. Recovery from trauma means going back and repairing those splits, and it's never too late to do it. So if you feel haunted by experiences from your past, find it hard to build meaningful relationships with others, or struggle with feeling afraid, schedule a consultation now.

Because of my extensive experience, I am able to help you process and recover from any trauma, whether it's a single event (like a car accident), chronic (as in childhood abusive of any kind or domestic violence) even if you're trauma is relational rather than physical it's important to take steps to heal so that you can move into a rich and full life without fear.

Alan Archibald
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Certified TFCBT, Certified Family Trauma Professional
Trauma & PTSD – The impact of trauma is powerful in that the experience of the past is stored in our memories as a survival mechanism of our brains. The reminders of trauma then occur in situations where there is no need for a survival response. We end up with frequent reminders of the trauma, that bring it into the present instead of letting it fade into the past. Methods are used involving education about the body’s vagus system, visualization, sensory soothing, and new strategies to reduce the intensity of intrusive memories.
