Understanding Trauma
Something terrible happened, and it feels impossible to talk about let alone think about it. But, you find yourself thinking about it anyways. You have triggers you wish you could forget. At times you feel as you’re watching life go on from behind a glass mirror. You likely feel detached from loved ones, feeling unlovable yourself. You’re easily startled and sleep is a nightmare waiting to happen. You don’t have to live this way anymore. We believe in your ability to heal.
You see we view PTSD, not as something that’s wrong with you, but something getting in the way of your body’s own natural ability to heal. There are many ways to break free from this cycle. We want to help.
