What is Trauma?

Trauma refers to the emotional and psychological response to events or experiences that are deeply distressing or disturbing. These experiences can vary widely and may include:

  • Acute Trauma

    Resulting from a single, intense event such as a natural disaster, serious accident, or physical assault.
  • Chronic Trauma

    Resulting from ongoing, repeated exposure to distressing situations, such as abuse, neglect, or domestic violence.
  • Complex Trauma

    Exposure to multiple or prolonged traumatic events, often occurring in childhood, leading to significant impacts on emotional and psychological development.

Symptoms of Trauma

Trauma can manifest in various ways, including:
  • Intrusive Memories

    Flashbacks, nightmares, or intrusive thoughts related to the traumatic event.
  • Emotional Numbness

    Difficulty experiencing emotions or feeling disconnected from others.
  • Hypervigilance

    Heightened awareness and sensitivity to potential threats, leading to increased anxiety or irritability.

  • Avoidance

    Steering clear of reminders or situations associated with the trauma.
  • Self-Blame

    Feelings of guilt or self-blame related to the traumatic experience.

Our Approach to Trauma Support

At Inner Visions, we offer a range of therapeutic approaches to help you address and heal from trauma:
  • Trauma-Informed Therapy

    Our practice is grounded in trauma-informed care, ensuring that all therapeutic interactions are sensitive to the impact of trauma and focused on creating a safe and supportive environment.
  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

    EMDR is an evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals process and integrate traumatic memories, reducing the emotional charge associated with them.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Referral

    CBT helps you identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors related to trauma, promoting healthier coping mechanisms and emotional resilience.

  • Somatic Experiencing

    This approach focuses on the body’s responses to trauma, helping you to release stored tension and trauma-related stress through body awareness and relaxation techniques.
  • Mindfulness-Based Therapy

    Incorporates mindfulness practices to help you stay grounded and manage overwhelming emotions, supporting the healing process and promoting emotional balance.
