Let Down Your Heavy Burden 

Carrying around trauma is not a light baggage to carry. It affects all levels of your life. Even if you are not thinking about your trauma at every second of the day, the effects are continuous. All trauma – acute, chronic, and complex – should be thoroughly picked apart and processed to live fully and freely. Trauma therapy can help you feel better again.

Leaving Trauma Unprocessed Can Result In:

  • Post traumatic stress
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Fear of engaging in certain activities or conversations
  • Social withdrawal from friends and family
  • Substance abuse
  • Suicide

Getting Ready For Change

Some people feel more nervous about scheduling a consultation than others. In order to feel more confident, there are things you can do to get your mind psychologically prepped for your consultation. Whether or not you come to the consultation with prepped notes, your therapist will ask you questions to ascertain your goals for therapy. If you would like a tool to bring for more consultation confidence, consider bringing notes on the bullet points below.
