Trauma

Going through traumatic experiences can be depleting to your mind, body, and spirit. You may have been holding on to this pain for some time now. Or perhaps you are still trying to understand it, overwhelmed by the triggers and effects on your everyday life. Whether you suffered abuse as a child, survived a tragic accident, lost someone you loved, or endured other distressing events, you are not alone. Trauma is a complex yet common experience that can be addressed with professional treatment.
