Trauma is a profoundly disturbing or frightening experience that exceeds our ability to cope, triggering intense emotional and physical reactions. At Behr Psychology, we understand that trauma isn’t limited to extreme or life-threatening events such as war or sexual assault but can arise from sources that may seem less significant yet equally impactful.
All of us are susceptible to trauma in our lives. Trauma from childhood, recent events, or a behavioral reaction of panic with no known cause are all valid reasons to seek therapy. Our services are tailored to address all forms of trauma, supporting you on the road to healing and recovery.
Trauma can involve any overwhelming experience that triggers adverse emotional, cognitive, and physical reactions. While commonly associated with emotional, physical, psychological, or sexual abuse, trauma encompasses much more. Events such as car accidents, witnessing distressing scenes, or being involved in toxic relationships can all be traumatic. Events like the pandemic or ongoing socio-political conflicts may provoke a traumatic response.
Emotional damage therapy services at Behr Psychology focus on treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other trauma-related conditions. PTSD often develops after someone has experienced or witnessed a traumatic event. Our therapists are dedicated to helping you process and work through your experiences in a supportive environment, ensuring that trauma does not control your life.
We believe that understanding and treating the underlying causes of trauma is essential for full recovery, so we offer comprehensive and expert support. Our therapists specialize in trauma and PTSD, using evidence-based therapies tailored to your unique experiences and your specific needs, helping you recover at your own pace. We provide a holistic approach to treatment, addressing both the psychological and physical aspects of trauma.
Finding a mental health professional with a specialization that meets your needs is crucial.
