Trauma can make us feel unsafe, out of control, or paralyzed, impacting how we relate to the world and to ourselves. We feel trapped in our own bodies and thoughts, trying to do whatever it takes to soothe, numb, escape, or dissociate. Often we don’t know why we’re feeling this way, leaving us more confused and helpless.

Common Trauma Symptoms

  • Strong feelings of shame, guilt, or hopelessness

  • Emotional Outbursts

  • Difficulty sleeping or nightmares

  • Feeling numb or disconnected to others

  • Intrusive or hard to control thoughts

  • Difficulty concentrating

  • Fear, anxiety or depression

Trauma comes from the Greek word for wound-and trauma survivors are wounded persons deserving of healing. Trauma ruptures the soul, impacts the mind, and dysregulates the nervous system to the degree that it makes it difficult to manage everyday life. These memories are often stored in the body-oftentimes staying stuck in that moment in time .

A traumatic event can be anything that evokes a strong emotional response and impairs your ability to cope and is unique to each person, but below is a list of potentially triggering events:

Causes of Trauma

  • Witnessing or experiencing violence or bullying

  • Losing a loved one, especially due to suicide

  • Psychological or physical abuse

  • Sexual assault, rape, molestation

  • Serious accidents, like a plane or car crash

  • Life- threatening illness

  • Neglect

  • Victim of a crime

  • Victimization, and shaming/humiliation
