It shows strength and courage to reach out to a therapist.

If you experience symptoms of trauma or PTSD, you’re not alone, and there is NOTHING wrong

with you.

The distressing symptoms you experience are “normal” reactions to abnormal events. Stressful and traumatic situations can overwhelm your nervous system and cause a pattern of negative responses that get stuck in your brain.

Often specific types of therapy, such as EMDR, [link to section on approaches page where this is discussed] that are known to help release these patterns and heal trauma symptoms are required.

While major stressful events often cause distress, sometimes even events that seem insignificant at the time can cause a great deal of turmoil.
