recognizing the effects of trauma

Trauma shows up differently for everyone. You might recognize yourself in one or more of these experiences:

  • Flashbacks, nightmares, or panic

  • Anxiety, dissociation, or feeling numb

  • Emotional overwhelm or difficulty regulating feelings

  • Persistent stress from medical procedures or illness

  • Childhood trauma or emotional neglect

  • The lasting impact of relational trauma or abuse

  • Difficulty trusting others or feeling safe in relationships

  • Feeling disconnected or misunderstood, even by those close to you

  • The effects of bullying or ongoing invalidation

  • Symptoms of PTSD or post-traumatic stress

These signs may be familiar—and they’re also treatable. Let’s talk about what recovery could look like for you.
