Trauma Therapy
Resplora offers dedicated care for people who have experienced distressing events, whether these occurred recently or in the past. Many people are not aware that trauma can have many causes and that its effects can last months or even years. The clinic welcomes everyone, whether or not they have an official diagnosis.
What is Trauma?
Trauma is an emotional response that happens after very stressful or frightening experiences. These experiences can overwhelm a person’s ability to cope. Trauma can result from accidents, abuse, violence, disasters, neglect, or even ongoing distress at home or work. Trauma is common and can affect anyone, no matter their age or background.
Signs You Might Be Experiencing Trauma
- Trouble sleeping, frequent nightmares, or difficulty relaxing
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or having mood swings
- Avoiding certain places, people, or memories
- Being easily startled or feeling ‘on edge’ often
- Difficulty trusting others or feeling safe
- Physical symptoms such as headaches or stomach aches
If these patterns sound familiar, professional support can help make sense of what is happening and provide tools for recovery.
